Once home to Prince Bishops — still breathtaking today
This full-day tour takes you to the beautiful and often overlooked city of Durham. Once home to the powerful Prince Bishops, it is one of the most graceful cities in the whole of the UK.
Your guide will meet you at your hotel or Newcastle Central Station and a short train ride brings you to this magnificent city. Durham is dominated by its cathedral dating from 1093 AD — world-renowned as one of the finest pieces of Norman architecture anywhere in the world.
Don’t miss the tomb of Saint Cuthbert, who brought Christianity to Northumberland in the 7th century, or the resting place of the Venerable Bede. Across the courtyard stands Durham Castle — together they form a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
