Forming part of the medieval kingdom of Northumbria, there is a wealth of wonderful things to see on our Northumberland and Durham group tours. Northumberland has the highest density of castles in England, with other famous landmarks including the incredibly well-preserved Roman structure, Hadrian’s Wall – a UNESCO World Heritage Site with a range of other Roman forts and structures along it; check out our Hadrian’s Wall day tour if you’d like to learn more. Our Durham tours are headlined by the Durham and Bishop Auckland tour which incorporates another UNESCO world heritage site of Durham Cathedral and the home of the Bishops of Durham in Bishop Auckland. Explore the fascinating history of this incredible region on our group tours below, and please contact us if you have any questions.
Alex led a terrific few three-day tour, we loved the time we shared with him. I have had the pleasure lead dozens of these tours over the years. Without a doubt, Alex is my favourite guide!
