This sensational private tour to the City of Wells and mystical Glastonbury is a visual feast that can't fail to delight you. With me as your local guide let's discover Wells, the smallest city in England, recently voted the UK's Number 1 visitor destination! It boasts one of the most beautiful cathedrals in the country, a moated Mediaeval Palace, plus the oldest street in Europe. We will wander the mediaeval Market Place, which has featured in television dramas and movies. There will be time to enjoy a traditional pub lunch. We'll see Glastonbury, a charming town with ancient buildings and a unique, New Age High Street. This place will inspire and intrigue you with its myths, mystery and Arthurian Legends. Did you know its former Abbey was the country's largest and most powerful during the Middle Ages and the legendary birthplace of Christianity in England? Depending on time/fitness/weather we'll also walk up iconic Glastonbury Tor to savour a panoramic view of the surrounding Somerset landscape.
- We will start our private tour walking the historic centre of Wells, the smallest city in England, which can be traced back to Roman times. - We visit the magnificent Early English Gothic Cathedral, described as "the most poetic of the English Cathedrals". - We see Vicars' Close - frozen in time and believed to be the oldest residential street in England. - Across the Market Place lies the moated palace, which has been home to the Bishops of Bath and Wells for more than 800 years. We'll walk over the drawbridge and explore the award-winning gardens (optional). - After lunch we continue on to Glastonbury, a town steeped in mystery and legend. We'll visit the impressive ruined Abbey, which is reputed to be the burial place of King Arthur. According to legend this is where Joseph of Arimathea arrived with the Holy Grail to establish the first English Christian church. - Thereafter, let's stroll through the lovely town centre OR climb the iconic Tor to savour the panoramic views over the Somerset Levels
