Nowhere else but Chester are you going to find the medieval two tiered streets of shops that can be experienced, called the Rows or taking the ghost tour through the same area. There are indeed some sights that will make you howl through the city and the guided ghost tours that are available in the evenings – which shouldn’t be missed.

The perfect weekend destination, there are many other types of guided tours that are available through the city including a guided tour directed by an authentic Roman soldier. The group tours are available to let you in on all of the little secrets of the town, and the history of Chester.

Once you have finished the day of shopping, there are many quite cafes and restaurants that can be chosen from to complete the evening. Many of these small restaurants are hidden – they are hard to find and they also happen to be hidden gems. You can discover some of the local fare and be ready to go the next day to experience one of the only towns that still maintain the tradition of the Town Crier.

No visit to Chester is complete without a visit to the renowned cathedral. Tours are available and last upwards of forty-five minutes with the price of five pounds. These tours can give you an audio history of the cathedral and the history of the importance of the cathedral in the local Christian traditions. A stunning sight, the cathedral should not be missed on a trip to Chester.
