This is a walking tour, you should be prepared to be on foot for around one and a half hours. Although the tour takes place on pavements and pedestrianised areas around the city centre we cannot guarantee that all parts of the tour will be suitable for wheelchairs or buggies. Once you set off from the Westgate and walk down the hill into the city centre the rest of the route is pretty flat. The tour will conclude at the St Swithun-upon-Kingsgate church, just past the cathedral.
