Newcastle Upon Tyne Private Historic Pub Tour With Free Drinks!
Great tour
Exellent tour. Stephen was a knowledgeable tour guide. Stephen was also very accommodating. My wife had a bad knee and he was able to modify the tour to make the walk easier for her. We learned a lot and the puvs were amazing. Thank you Stephen.

2 Hours Walking Tour in Newcastle Upon Tyne in Italian/English
Newcastle history, easy to understand.
Laura B. was able to give us a very good history of Newcastle by reviewing various buildings and statues and works of art. I appreciated the different times these related to in history from current to very ancient. She was able to walk us through town while describing the many epochs.

Beamish the Living Museum of the North Private Tour
A totally unique experience
If you enjoy history, or just a step back in time this huge place with lovingly preserved towns, industry and farms from 1900's to 1950's, all full of wonderful detail is definitely the place to visit. It's a great location, no modern buildings are viewable from the site making it a truly authentic and immersive experience. Lots of toilets and places to eat, the fish and chip shops did get busy. Plenty of trams and buses, although they do get full quick. The biggest downside is that there is too much to do in one visit, there is a yearly pass available. I'm sure that it won't fail to impress.
