Dark Chester welcomes everyone to the tour and aims to make it a safe space for all.
We are always working on ways in which we can improve your visit and welcome any feedback to help us do so.
The nature of a walking tour sometimes involves stairs, uneven surfaces and open spaces. However, as a self-employed tourist guide, I will vary the route and duration of the tour to allow for access needs.
If you require any help with booking a tour, or would like more information, please call me on 07974 390436, or email [email protected].
