About
This tour will bring to life the medieval history of Newcastle which lies hidden behind the facade of the modern city.
One of our authentically costumed guides will take you from St Andrews, Newcastle's oldest church, past the formidable town walls taking in Friaries, merchant houses, markets and guild headquarters, before finishing at the imposing Black Gate - the gatehouse of Newcastle's Castle.
From here you will be free to explore the amazingly preserved remains of the Black Gate and Castle Keep for yourselves - tickets are included in the price of the tour at a significant discount.

This is a walking tour of the city, so please wear suitable footwear. You will need to be able to manage some stairs and sloping streets. Please note that the Castle Keep which you will visit after your tour is a Grade I listed building, and is unfortunately not fully accessible to those with mobility difficulties.
