Top Middlesbrough Private Sightseeing Tours

Wry informative. Easy to follow at your own pace

Ken is a great tour guide. Durham is a classic North East England experience. The English countryside is beautiful!

The app was easy to use. The photos helped you get to the right place. It was good that you could go at your own speed, stop for a brew etc. The audio was very clear. Thank-you

I’m from Co Durham originally and was visiting the area with friends from the Midlands. Ken was an excellent guide. He gave us a lot of information about the history of the city and its surrounding towns and villages. It was useful to hear about Lord Londonderry’s influencer in the area as a trip to Seaham was on our itinerary. I would certainly recommend his tours.

We initially looked for a physical guide, but couldn’t find one to suit our availability, so went for the audio guide as second choice. What a great revelation. The App used GPS to trigger comments for the local and very well informed guide. This meant you could move at your own pace, stop for a look at a shop or even take a coffee mid-way through the tour. Devon, who voices the guide was informative, humourous and a local, which added to the experience. First time we’ve tried an audio walking guide and would seriously consider using one again. It was inexpensive and highly recommended for anyone wanting to hear about Whitby from an enthusiastic resident.

Anna was superlative as a guide, historian, story-teller, and true host to this gorgeous city. She met us at our hotel (and had some wonderful history to impart about that as well) and guided us throughout the city's vennels, squares, river walk, cathedral, and college with knowledge, humour, and sincerity. We could have spent the entire day wtih her- her timings so we had enough time to enjoy and soak in areas was spot on. Durham is an exquisite city- with its rich history it should be on everyone's wish list!

This is a fantastic way to explore Durham.We booked at the last minute and I was looking at tours online and found this and it was just a few pounds to download so we tried this and it’s fantastic.We downloaded the tour to our phones and just walked the tour at our own pace listening to- able to stop and start as well as check photos to see we were in the right place.The content was excellent and we followed the route easily - such a brilliant idea and we would look for this provider if they do other areas. Fantastic and amazing value versus traditional tours.

A fabulous audio tour of Durham. Intimate and flexible. Well worth it as you can do it at your own pace.

We had a lovely private afternoon tour of Durham Cathedral with Anna. She was very knowledgeable and engaging, and easily answered our many questions - no small feat as our party consisted of four retired academics with a wide range of interests (and accompanied by a couple of dogs)! Highly recommended.

Perfect tour. Very informative with good humour

What an amazing cathedral. The history is fascinating. Loved the carved pillars. What was also amazing was the fact you did not have to pay to go in. Well done Durham.

You cannot fail to be impressed by this imposing cathedral and the history behind it. The welcome is warm and the stewards informative and chatty. There is so much to see and process. Memorials, tombs and the huge architecture. Do spend some time at the shrines of Beds and St Cuthbert, as well as appreciating the stained glass.To complement our visit we called into the cafe where we were served a lovely latte and a huge jam and cream scone, delicious and every bit homemade.A voluntary donation is requested and we were happy to donate, it was such a wonderful experience for a small amount of money.

Really enjoyed this tour we did it on the evening so was lovely to explore the the town by night. Really good and informative.

Great tour. Devon’s Local knowledge was informative with lots of fun stories relating to folklore and legend. Particularly enjoyed his memories of his childhood and how parents could conjure up scary tales to excite children’s imaginations. Full of snippets of historical and cultural info about Whitby, however, not overbearing so kept us interested.GPS worked amazingly well. Kept you on the right path and will notify you if you veer off in the wrong direction. Explored areas we otherwise may have missed.Took us just over an hour, however you could have a coffee stop or lunch and then carry on. Great way to avoid group tours and explore at your own pace.Co-incidentally, Devons partner passed us as we were listening to the tour. Nod to her as it added a bit of quirkinesses and authenticity to the storyteller.Thoroughly recommend for all age groups, adults and children alike.Easy to download and you have it for life so could return to it in future visits. 😀👍
