Explore the stunning English countryside and delve into the ancient history of Hadrian’s Wall, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Starting in Newcastle (or your chosen hotel to collect you from) we will travel along the wall and your guide will explain the history of the Roman wall. After arriving at the Roman fort of Housesteads – the most complete Roman fort remaining in Britain your guide will provide a full and detailed tour of the site. This will give you the opportunity to see the wall up close, discover its soldiers and take in the wild geography of the frontier.
After exploring Housesteads, we’ll enjoy a well-deserved lunch at the Twice Brewed Inn. The adventure continues to Vindolanda, a well-excavated Roman supply base, providing deep insights into the daily lives of Roman residents.
