Begeleide wandeling door de oude stad en de haven van Bristol
Beschrijving
Wandelen door een stad, luisterend naar een gids, is een perfecte vorm van lichaamsbeweging. 1000 jaar handel en industrie maakten Bristol de tweede stad van het Verenigd Koninkrijk. Bekijk de kathedraal, Banksy's, Harbour, Docks, Georgian Square, Old Vic, 'Bridge', Castle-site, Old City, corn exchange, markten, Guilds, Street Art en Sugar House. We nemen maximaal zes personen mee op onze wandeling. Geniet van een begeleide wandeling van 2 uur, circa 12.000 treden en 3-4 mijl lang, onderweg luisterend naar interessante feiten, kleurrijke personages, geschiedenis en anekdotes. Elke persoon heeft een audio-ontvanger zodat ze hier de gids kunnen zijn boven al het stadslawaai. Sluit je aan bij je gids, die in 1980 naar Bristol is verhuisd, Bristol Poly (UWE) heeft gevolgd, 40 jaar heeft gewoond, rugby gespeeld, af en toe in de stad gewerkt. Hij doet voortdurend onderzoek naar de stad als hobby en wil iets teruggeven aan de plek die hij aanbidt. De stijl is interactief, flexibel, luchtig en persoonlijk. Natuurvakanties zijn beperkt, dus plan vooruit.

We were a group of 20. Mike’s knowledge of Bristol past and present - in older terms is encyclopaedic and in today’s terms out googles google! He is not only knowledgable but good humoured and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Of course the SS Great Britain was a fascinating conclusion. We had such a good time we booked his other tour. Highly recommend
awesome tour managed by Owen who was so knowledgeable of the city history and must-see spots, we really enjoyed our time with him and highly recommend this tour
We arranged a group tour for our company's Annual Conference. The whole experience was fantastic. They arranged the tour as bespoke for us, at a very reasonable rate. The tour guide (Mike) had such a wonderful depth of knowledge - he brought the whole experience to life in such an engaging way. I thoroughly recommend this tour
Lovely guy with a great manner. I was very impressed with his sensitive coverage of some difficult subject matter (slavery, graffiti). Fascinating tour and despite being relatively local I saw and learned loads that was completely new to me.
Many thanks for the kind review. Regards
Mike does love Bristol and will go an extra mile and extra time to show you many interesting places and explain how they were intertwined with rich history of Bristol. Special thanks for the recommendation to visit Clifton Bridge area.
Hi, I am glad you enjoyed the tour. It was fun taking you guys around
We had a wonderful history and overview of the central area and harbor in Bristol. Our guide was friendly, knowledgeable and provided the perfect narrative to our walk.
Hi, Many thanks for the kind review. I hope you enjoy the rest of your trip. MIke
Great tour, very well organised and full of interesting details about the city of Bristol, its history and legendary characters related to the city. I really enjoyed the tour and think that Mike did a really good job!
Hi, Many thanks for the kind review. Travel home safely. Regards Mike
A very very8 good walking tour ,Mike definately knows his history about Bristiol. The walking tour took us to lots of places both historical and artistic. Well worth the time and money.
Hi, Many thanks for the review. I hope the rest of your holiday goes well. Mike
We joined a walking tour of Bristol harbour, which was lead by Izambard Brunel (look alike) in July 2024. The walk was mostly level and consisted of approximately 3.5 miles, and around 2 hours long. Joe was our lead, and was dressed appropriately in a Brunel suit and top hat. Joe was very enthusiastic and knowledgable about Brunels achievements including his design of The Clifton suspension bridge, and contribution to design of SS Great Britain and general development of Bristol Harbour. Joe was responsive to questions and made the tour very interesting and smooth. A pleasant and helpful lady was assisting Joe on the tour and together they made the tour interesting, informative and safe. Highly recommended if you are interested in Bristols history, or Brunels contribution to its development.
Hi, I think this is for another tour. Great review for them though. I took you around later maybe. Mike
Superb walking tour around Bristol Old City & Harbour. Guide is informative, humorous and very engaging. The walk was perfectly paced.
Many thanks for the review. I enjoyed taking you guys around. I am glad you enjoyed it. Kind Regards Mike
