Have you heard the saying that Norwich once had a church for every Sunday of the year and a pub for every day? Not strictly true, it was more like two pubs for every day of the year at one point! These days things are a little less boozy, but not much! Join The Shoebox Experiences on a fascinating, walking and wheelchair friendly tour of Norwich to discover more about the city’s taverns, pubs and inns, led by a local storyteller, history enthusiast and performer who’ll bring the good old days to life. From brewing and body snatching to swan keeping and smuggling, you’ll hear tantalising tales from Norwich’s rich past as you weave your way through time.
This 1.3 mile tour takes you through the most scenic, photogenic parts of Norwich. Starting on Bishop Bridge, Riverside Road you’ll meander along the river, through wonderfully picturesque streets – be sure to have your camera ready! Perfect for visitors and locals who want to see the city from a different (possibly slightly blurry) perspective, this 2-hour tour is sure to whet your taste buds! Having fun is thirsty work so you’ll end at The Murderers Pub on Timberhill for a tipsy tipple and a Q&A session. A half a Murderers Ale, local beer, cider or soft drink is included with your ticket. And if you’re feeling peckish, your ticket also gives you a 25% discount off food at The Murderers when you show your booking confirmation, valid only on the day of your tour.
Suitable for over 18s only.
