The small medieval city of Norwich, off the beaten track, is one of England's best-kept secrets and a delightful place to visit. Today's walk allows you to explore the city's incredible heritage sites. Compelling architecture spanning 1,000 years rubs shoulders with modern technology.
Explore the cathedral district, little changed in hundreds of years. The surrounding area is criss-crossed with cobblestone streets lined with houses more than 500 years old. A great fire destroyed most of the even-older houses. The area includes Elm Hill -- a most atmospheric street.
Your walk will finish at Norwich Cathedral, in the city center, one of the finest complete Romanesque cathedrals in Europe. It also boasts the second-tallest spire and the largest monastic cloisters in England.
After the walking tour, free time will be awarded before rejoining your coach for the journey back to Great Yarmouth.
Please note: Guides are not allowed to provide commentary inside the church on Sundays. An introduction will be given outside and you will view the inside on your own.
