History, pints, and the finest riverside views in Britain
We begin in the historic heart of the city, visiting carefully chosen pubs as we make our way past the Castle that gave Newcastle its name and down towards the River Tyne. Along the way you’ll hear how this once-industrial powerhouse grew into one of Britain’s most vibrant cities — shaped by coal, shipbuilding, trade, and generations of proud Geordies.
Every pub includes a complimentary drink — beer, ale, soft drink or tea and coffee — so you can fully enjoy each stop without worrying about ordering or rushing. This feels less like a formal guided walk and more like exploring with a knowledgeable local friend.
