Chester Cathedral: A Spiritual Marvel

The Rows: Shopping with a Twist
Now, who doesn't love a good shopping spree? But forget about your run-of-the-mill high street – Chester's got something special up its sleeve. The Rows are a unique two-tiered shopping gallery that'll make you feel like you've stepped back in time. With their black and white Tudor-style facades, these covered walkways are perfect for a leisurely stroll, come rain or shine. And between you and me, they're a goldmine for quirky independent shops and cozy cafes.
Chester Roman Amphitheatre: Gladiators and Ghosts
Hold onto your hats, history buffs! Chester's Roman Amphitheatre is the largest in Britain, and boy, does it pack a punch. Close your eyes, and you can almost hear the roar of the crowd as gladiators faced off in epic battles. These days, it's a bit quieter, but no less impressive. And if you're feeling brave, why not join one of our evening tours? There might be a ghost story or two in store...
Chester City Walls: A Walker's Paradise
Lace up those trainers, because we're about to take a stroll along the most complete city walls in Britain. Dating back to Roman times, these walls offer a unique perspective on Chester's layout and history. As we wander, I'll let you in on some local legends and point out hidden details you might otherwise miss. And the best part? It's completely free!
Chester Zoo: Where the Wild Things Are
Okay, I know what you're thinking – "A zoo? Really?" But trust me, Chester Zoo is no ordinary animal park. It's one of the UK's top wildlife attractions, and for good reason. From majestic elephants to cheeky meerkats, there's something here for everyone. And if you're lucky, you might even catch one of the zookeeper talks.
