What you can expect

It is 1813… and as the ancient capital of England the historic streets of Winchester are heavy with myth and legend. But beyond the tourist trail lies a dark trail of secrets, ghosts and of an underclass of murderers and thieves. Mixing with the wealth of the Merchants and Clergy the streets were the hiding place of highwaymen, smugglers and politics. Join us we bring these stories to life in a truly immersive experience as ghosts of the past come to tell their tales.

It will involve a steep climb uphill and some steps. The tour runs no matter what the weather throws at us - so take precautions. Suitable for 12 years and up when accompanied by an adult. The original tour changes annually, but has been running since 2004.
