Walking tours for groups can be arranged at any time of the year and tailored to suit your requirements. We have a team of 27 carefully selected town guides, who are Green Badge and/or Blue Badge guides.
Your group can be any size.
You will need one guide for every 20 people. We suggest an approximate time of 90 minutes for walking tours of the historic town centre. However, the start point and duration can be easily adapted to suit your itinerary, with the latest departure time being 7pm.
Why not think abut a themed walking tour for your group. Some popular themes include:
- Medieval
- Tudors
- Civil War
- 18th Century
- Victorian
- Charles Darwin
- Shuts and Passages
- Brother Cadfael
Charles Dickens - 2012 is the 200th anniversary of the birth of Charles Dickens. If your group has an interest in Charles Dickens why not book a guided tour of Shrewsbury and learn about the areas of the town that are associated with the author?
Many of our guides have specialist knowledge and interests which they enjoy sharing with others, so do talk to us about other ideas for group tours.
Foreign language tours are currently available in French and Italian.
