A very interesting and entertaining tour. The tour took us down the high street, the river and around the Cathedral quarter. The tour leader allowed a toilet stop. He went at a good pace given we were a bit slow. Highly recommended.

Bryan was an excellent tour guide. He engaged us instantly with the way he narrated the story of Winchester and the famous historical and fictional characters associated with the town. The tour was conducted at the right pace and with the right level of detail at every stop. We all loved it and although a number of us know Winchester well, we all learned a lot during the tour
