One of the very best, perhaps the best, on our numerous city walking tours around Europe.

Andrew
Seasoned city walker

We're always sceptical of historical tours. But Tom is the real thing.

Vina
Visiting historian

Lived in Norwich most of my life, but still learnt lots.

Julie
Norwich local

Been to Norwich many times, but the first time seeing it through the lenses of the locals.

Meet at The Forum

We start outside The Forum on Millennium Plain. Your guide will be in a green t-shirt with a green map-pin flag. Hard to miss.

Before you book

A few quick answers

Is it really free?

Risk-free, not just free. Nothing to pay upfront. At the end you pay what you think it was worth. £10 to £20 a person is the going rate. If it wasn't worth it, you don't pay. Cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay and cash all work.

What if it rains?

We still go. Norwich was built for weather: the Lanes are covered, the Cathedral Close has cover, and half the pubs on the route have been sheltering people since the 1400s. Bring a coat. If the weather turns properly dangerous, we'll message you before the tour.

Is this suitable for kids?

Yes. Mostly flat, mostly paved, easy pace. We've had 6-year-olds and 86-year-olds on the same tour and both had a good time. Families very welcome.

Can I cancel?

Yes, any time, no charge. If you can't make it, please cancel so your spot can go to someone else. There's a link in your booking email.

Got a different question? See the full FAQ or drop us a message.

No risk. No script. No coach parties.

The only daily free walking tour in Norwich. Local guides. Group capped at 15. If the tour wasn't worth it, you don't pay. That's the deal.
