You will walk with historian Dr Lillian Cespedes Gonzalez* who studied all throughout her history undergraduate to her PhD in the city of Winchester. So you will get detailed explanations of the city from a historical view point as well as that local experience that makes Winchester a quaint, unforgettable place.

You will learn of the legends around some of the most iconic locations in Winchester. You will get to know notable characters such a Licoricia of Winchester of the stories of many bishops that work hard to give the city its hard earned reputation. And of course, you will dive into the Anglo-Saxon past following the footsteps of King Alfred of Wessex.

It is not every day that you visit the ancient capital of the kingdom with a medieval historian!

*Although Lillian delivers the majority of the tours the team has grown since 2021. Rest of the team are trained by her and historians/teachers/or history students of the university of Winchester. See our reviews*
