Cardiff Private Dark History Tour
Beskrivelse
Cardiff Dark Side Tour viser dig den anden side af den walisiske hovedstad. Cardiff er en by kendt for sit slot og sit rugbystadion, bygget på Bute-familiens succes og kuleksportindustrien. Den har dog en mørkere kant, som man ikke ser i dag, en af f.eks. hængninger, henrettelser, kirkegårde og sygdom. Selv de mest uskyldige steder i det centrale Cardiff, som vi går forbi hver dag, kan have været henrettelsesstedet eller slumkvarteret.
Turmuligheder
Rejseplan
Vi starter midt i det moderne Cardiffs mest centrale gade. I dag et eksklusivt shoppingområde, men historisk set spredte Cardiffs berygtede boligdomstole sig ud fra denne gade, ligesom sygdommen fulgte med dem.
Mens det er et stort stormagasin i dag, har stedet historisk set været stedet for et kapel samt et henrettelsessted.
Cardiff Central Market er hjertet og sjælen i det daglige byliv i dag. Der er en lang historie med markeder i Cardiff, men den nuværende inkarnation er berygtet for mere end det ser ud til.
Womanby er et sjældent eksempel på en gade med nordisk navn i den walisiske hovedstad, så den kan dateres op til 1.000 år tilbage. I den tid har denne gade været synonym med immigration, prostitution, kriminalitet og slumkvarterer.
Cardiff Castle er centrum af byen og den ældste bygning i Cardiff. Det fungerer både som den mest hjemsøgte bygning i byen og har tidligere fungeret som hovedfængsel i byen.
Cardiffs næstældste bygning, den har været et midtpunkt i byen gennem hele sin historie, forbundet med hjemsøgelser, kirkegårde og meget mere.

With 5 friends, we all love history and discovering a new city. So this guided tour was perfect for us. The guide was incredibly knowledgeable about the area. Really recommend
Eugene is a gentleman and a scholar. He continued with the tour even though there were only 4 of us. It was funny, interesting and slightly spooky!!
Eugene was excellent, took a group of 7 of us who live in Cardiff around the city and we all learned a lot about Cardiffs history that wed never heard about before. would recommend
Really great guide & a very interesting tour to learn more about our home town. Thoroughly recommended.

We had a private tour booked for us in Cardiff. This tour has something for everyone, including the history of Cardiff and some of the more dark side, ghosts, murders etc.
Hi Steve, Thanks for the nice review. I'm glad you both enjoyed it and I hope you enjoyed your time in Cardiff. Eugene
Organised and funded by City of Arcades week, 2022. Despite the heavens opening for most of the tour the guides delivery of the tour over came this. Have lived here for over 20 years, I still discovered new facts, tales and the darker history of Cardiff. Great tour for anyone looking for for more than just a history lesson.

Had a great tour of Cardiff After Dark as part of the City of Arcades week, 2022. LOTS of gory, gruesome (and of course sometimes sad) details of Cardiff's darker past. Despite the rain, sometimes constant, Eugene kept his enthusiasm up the entire time. Thoroughly enjoyed it and would recommend to others! Thank you.
