Roman Chester the bits you'll not find on your own - Guyus was a really great and entertaining guide. Funny and interacted well with all of us. The tour was really interesting and we got to see bits of Chester that we would probably not have found on our own. Really good value for money and a nice way to visit Chester's Roman heritage. Hope his legs don't get too cold in the winter!!

Superb tour - engaging for all ages - A really great afternoon for all the family, exploring Chester, with self-confessed Roman history geek (and archeology graduate) Rob. Very entertaining and absolutely packed with information and insight. Amazing to think back to what the city would have been like in 88AD (when it was the largest Roman settlement, and very nearly capital of Roman England), and to understand the activity that would have been going on in the different quarters. Fascinating insight into the lives of soldiers. Absolutely super tour, engaging all ages and a real highlight of our holiday. Thank you.

Gaius the Great - With Gaius as our guide, we have had a very lovely tour in Deva Victrix. Thanks to him we were able to enjoy Chester in an other way.
