Chester: A Virtual Stroll Around the Walls

Chester & Liverpool Guided Walks


walking the wallIf you, your clients and guests have found the Chester Virtual Stroll stimulating, you may also be interested in treating yourselves to one of my real guided walks.

Join me to wander Chester's world famous city walls- the most complete in Britain- and discover the delights of other parts of our lovely city as well. Hear stories you'll never find in a guidebook!


Depending upon your requirements, I can give your party a quick introductory tour of the city centre or conduct lengthy and detailed study walks upon specific themes, for example, the Roman, Saxon, Norse and medieval roots of Chester, the City Walls and Rows, the great religious foundations, Chester's vanished inns, how an ancient city copes with modern development- and many more.

No fair weather guide I, for my walks take place all year round, are reasonably priced, friendly, informal and very informative.

Tours can take place at your own pace and at times to suit you and your party and you may choose to take your lunch / cofee / beer breaks as you see fit - I'm always happy to recommend suitable hosteleries!

Depending upon prior committments, I'm happy to accept your booking at very short notice so don't hesitate to give me a ring when you're in town.

If you're from overseas, my walks are also a great opportunity to practise your English and get to know your new home.

I'm pleased to be able to offer this service for visitors to the great city of Liverpool too.

In addition to my independent guided walks, I'm also proud to be a guide for English in Chester. On the left we see one of their groups of young people- these guys are from Hong Kong- during one of our introductory wanderings around our beautiful city.

So, to make your visit to Chester truly memorable, send for our information leaflet or contact author and guide Steve Howe to discuss your requirements and learn more: 01244 345099 / 0775 1521 600 / email: knowhowe@bwpics.co.uk

"Hi Steve, I just wanted to thank you on behalf of the society for last night's evening of illumination and beer, everyone really enjoyed themselves and are thankfully looking forward to staying with the society. It was remarked on, on more than one occasion that virtually every building has a tale to tell, thanks for helping to broaden our knowledge of Chester. I will post the details of your web site to the society members. Hope to see you again".
