Your guide will steer you through Nottingham's central streets, pausing at sites connected to Robin Hood lore and the city's medieval past. You'll descend into caves carved into the sandstone bedrock—former refuges, storage spaces and gathering spots. The narrative weaves between documented history and legend, delivered with theatrical flair rather than academic distance. Expect a brisk pace with frequent stops for context and pictures. The final leg ends at a historic public house where ales are on your own tab.
