하이라이트
While strolling along cobbled streets and riverside footpaths, you will view some of the world's best architecture and encounter gripping tales of the kings, Prince Bishops and local people who have made Durham one of England's most fascinating, and historically significant, cities. Our History Tour will take you from the bustling heart of the Market Place to the UNESCO World Heritage Site of the castle. Walkabout Durham is a small family run business of two guides (Peter and Annmarie). We both grew up in Durham, trained as teachers and have been running tours in Durham since 2019. This was our first tour and is still the most popular of our range of tours.

About Middlesbrough
Middlesbrough is a Teesside town on the River Tees, built on iron and steel, with a famous transporter bridge and the North York Moors close behind.
Middlesbrough lies on the south bank of the River Tees in north-east England, historically in Yorkshire. It grew from a farm into a major ironworking town in the nineteenth century after ironstone was found in the Cleveland Hills, and its bridge-building firms worked on the Sydney Harbour Bridge and the Tyne Bridge.
