5.00First rate tour! Our guide Helen was so enthusiastic and full of interesting facts. I’ve lived in Hexham for 40 years but learned a lot about the town on this tour. We were a party of 3 aged from eighty to thirteen - we were all engaged and really enjoyed ourselves. Thanks Helen for a very well spent hour. Can thoroughly recommend!
Fantastic tour well worth even if local

5.00We recently joined Helen with 22 members of our Beaver Scout colony for her Gruesome Tour of Hexham. Helen did an amazing job of tweaking the tour to make it age appropriate but still fascinating for 6-7 year olds. The group loved learning about our home town and all came away talking about their favourite stories, sharing them with their families. Even the adults who've lived in Hexham for decades learned something new. Thanks Helen - we'll be back!

5.00We had an excellent tour guide Helen. We were a party of 4 families with 8 adults and 11 children between us, ranging from 9 to 17. Everybody really enjoyed the tour and Helen was full of interesting, gruesome facts. She interacted really well with the children and made it very fun for them.
