Chester
Both Helen & Colin are Cestrians, and have a wealth of knowledge of this wonderful city. Talking to them is like having your own personal 'Concierge' on tap. With a list as long as their arm of where to explore, eat, play along with 'hidden gems' that can be found of the beaten track. The list is endless but here is a little taster:
The Roman City of ChesterWalking distance of 20 minutes to the epi-centre. Chester - old enough to make your spine tingle, yet young enough in spirit to be effortlessly fashionable. Small enough to explore easily on foot, but big enough to be wonderfully cosmopolitan.
A hop-on, hop-off bus tour plus walking tours for historic, ghostly haunts, or join a Roman patrol around Fortress Dewa.
