A great way to see Durham whilst being entertained.
A great afternoon out with friends. Peter, our guide, met us on time at the place we were told. He was very personable and knew his stuff. Some nice pubs and interesting tales, as well as some good beer recommendations. All in all a great way to spend some time being entertained and seeing parts of Durham we may not have visited.

An enjoyable and informative experience
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.

Essential Whitby: Discover the town’s legends on a self-guided audio tour
ijallen52, Jul 2026
Excellent audio guide - use it!
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.

Durham: a gem on the river Wear
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!

Me and my partner had a tour with Peter today and he was absolutely brilliant. Was only us two on the tour but the show went on and he smashed it! Really nice and genuine guy and knows his history and we learnt a lot from him! Highly recommend a tour with him and hope he does well in the future too!

Amazing way to explore Durham
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.
