Fun and informative tour

Suzanne L, Jun 2026

Fabulous walking tour by a knowledgeable and entertaining guide. Steve was able to tailor the tour to our interests and knowledge and kept us entertained for 90 minutes with the stories and characters of old Portsmouth. Can thoroughly recommend. Thanks for a super tour!

Hugely interesting with an excellent guide and story teller.

We were looking forward to our walking tour of Historic Portsmouth and weren’t disappointed. We had a lovely sunny day to enjoy the time we spent out sightseeing and the tour itself takes about an hour and a half covering roughly 2 miles. Steve was welcoming, engaging, amiable, funny and passionate. As an ex Navy member myself I thought I might know something of Pompey and that the day would serve as a reminder of what had been, past and more recent. How wrong I was. The interesting sights, facts, figures and wows were constant and at the end of the tour I felt that we had had a fantastic lesson in history. Fully recommended to anyone who has the slightest interest in history and all things Naval.

Excellent walking tour

I thoroughly recommend this walking tour. Steve is very knowledgeable, engaging and entertaining, pointing out things that we would not have seen otherwise. His anecdotes kept us amused whilst we learnt some interesting facts about Portsmouth’s history. To know that we were also helping to support a very worthwhile charity was the icing on the cake.
