Our guide was very informative and made an already interesting (to us anyway!) topic very enjoyable. I’ll never forget the importance of a gong farmer!

What a brilliant tour, Cory was hugely informative and a great story teller. I was entertained and learnt so much about Medieval Newcastle… and a lot more besides! Excellent value for money with entrance to the castle included - knockout views from the roof!

A highly informative and interesting tour. Cory shared so much interesting information about medieval Newcastle, and his descriptions really helped us visualise how Newcastle was during this period. Well worth the money for the expert commentary and tour followed by entrance to Newcastle Castle and Keep.

Ben is an entertaining informative guide who freely admits to not knowing everything. However approximate dates are quite good enough in this context. He provides lots of information about other aspects of the city too.

Thomas was a wonderful, knowledgeable guide. Our tour actually lasted over 2 hours and we enjoyed every minute of it. History came alive when learning about medieval life with Thomas verbally painting a picture of it.

Very good and knowledge guide- Thomas- who made it a great tour. I knew almost nothing about the history of this area beforehand and Thomas explained the history very clearly. I had read about Matilda and the White Ship, the tour put that piece of history into context- as well as everything else which was covered.

Amazing!

First class walking tour with an excellent guide, George. Despite us both being Newcastle residents, we learnt something about the city and its medieval history at every stop along the way. My only tiny comment is that we spent a very long time at the start, setting the scene and I would reduce this “intro” to a few minutes at most.

A lot of people think that Newcastle’s ancient history starts and finishes with the Romans. This superb tour proved that belief could not be further from the truth!
