Frequently asked questions

Is the route flat, or are there steps and uneven ground?

The tour crosses cobbled lanes and a number of steps on the way to the quiet stairways up Castle Hill. Step-free alternatives for individual sections can be discussed in advance.

Does this tour run in any weather?

The tour is mostly outdoors, though the visit to St Martin's offers a short dry break along the way. In sustained rain, the route can be shortened.

How large can the group be for this tour?

Because some stops, such as the courtyards and stairways, are narrow, this tour works best with smaller groups. We are happy to discuss the exact group size in advance.
