Steph was a fantastic guide, leading our group through the city while sharing fascinating stories and historical insights that brought Chester to life. The tour struck a perfect balance between local history, beautiful walks and, of course, excellent food. We met at Greenhouse by Chester Town Hall before making our way around the city. Along the route, we visited Thai Tapas where I had a great Thai wine, walked through the stunning Chester Cathedral, explored the Rows, and enjoyed the choice of an ice cream or a beer. One of the highlights was walking along Chester’s historic walls on the way to Brewery Tap for a delicious mini steak pie. The tour finished with a beautiful cheesecake made from local ingredients, which was the perfect ending to the experience. As I’m writing this, I’m still thinking about that cheesecake and would gladly have another ten slices. Unfortunately, it had been made specifically for Steph’s tour, making it both memorable and frustratingly unavailable. Steph’s knowledge, enthusiasm and sense of humour made the afternoon engaging from start to finish. I came away having discovered some wonderful independent eateries and learnt far more about Chester than I ever expected. Highly recommended for both visitors and locals alike. You’ll leave well fed and with a newfound appreciation for this remarkable city.

We had a fantastic time exploring Chester with Steph. The city is full of interesting places, history, and little details that you would easily miss without a guide. Steph was brilliant, friendly, enthusiastic, and very easy to talk to. Her passion for Chester really came through and made the whole experience enjoyable from start to finish. It felt more like spending time with a knowledgeable friend than being on a formal tour.

Went on a tour with family for a birthday, never having done a food tour before. We all had a great time, I live near Chester but found a number of places I’d not been to before and all venues were excellent. It was great to hear the stories of the business owners, hear a bit of history about Chester on the way round, and the food and drink was excellent. The host Steph was also great and made sure everyone had an enjoyable afternoon
