This tour is aimed at adults, but children aged 12+ should enjoy it and are welcome.
It lasts about 75 minutes and covers about 1 mile. The route starts on College Bounds in front of King's College and is not suitable for those with restricted mobility due to the cobbled streets and uneven pavements. Please wear sensible shoes.
Free parking is available in nearby streets, e.g. University Road and in the Chanonry. Bus No. 20 runs runs to and from the city centre.
