Time for a weekend round up!!

Thanks to everyone that booked on and joined us for a walking tour over the weekend 🙏

We celebrated two birthdays on the tours this weekend, with a 60th birthday on today's tour and a 70th birthday on yesterday's pub tour 🎉

We had visitors from across the country as well as locals, with several visiting Lincoln for the first time! The pub tour included an impromptu pub quiz and some guests who had returned for the third time! 🍻

We love pooches on the walking tours and we had three canine guests over the weekend including Isla and Flora pictured 🐾

We love you all for joining us on a tour and supporting small business. We'll do it all again this week!

Can you spot yourself?

A couple of great smaller groups from walking tours over the last couple of Tuesdays. Great to see that people are still joining us for tours during the week as we move into Autumn 💛

Whilst our Saturday morning tour is always the most popular, we also hold tours on Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday mornings. These tours are often a little quieter and the city is a little more relaxed. A great time to see what Lincoln has to offer ☺️

Why not join one of our passionate guides when you visit?

We are lucky in Lincoln that there always seems to be something happening in the city 👍

This weekend was the turn of Lincoln Big Morris! A one day morris dancing festival that sees groups from across the country descend on the city. Groups of dancers pit themselves against each other in a bit of friendly rivalry and show off their dancing skills with all the bells, hankies and sticks you could ever want. Think of it as a traditional version of street dance battles 😂

Morris dancing is a folk dance that originated in the 15th Century and it is great to see traditions like this alive and well today!

The east end of Lincoln Cathedral with the massive great east window in the centre 😊

The east end, known as the Angel Choir, was build in the 13th Century to house the shrine of St Hugh of Lincoln. It is a stunning example of gothic architecture and one of the highlights of the cathedral. The east window was reglazed in 1855 and is considered to be one of the finest examples of it's style in the country 👍

Join us for a walking tour and we'll show you more of the amazing architecture of Lincoln Cathedral and tell you all about its history. Book for free via our website...

Ole Ole is a firm favourite of our guides and many locals in Lincoln. They have a fantastic selection of tasty tapas, sangria, good vibes and friendly service. It's one we recommend regularly to visitors to the city on our walking tours 💛

We recently visited for a guide get together and would suggest over ordering to get to try as many of their fantastic dishes as possible. Shout out to the stuffed dates in bacon which are incredible. And remember to say yes to the complementary caramel vodka 😋

Be sure to save this reel to include in your Lincoln itinerary and follow us for more recommendations 👍

If you fancy joining us, all you need to do is send us a message or an email to [email protected] to RSVP and we will add you to the list. We've booked out the entire first floor of the pub, so there is plenty of space 👍

On the evening there will be a few speeches, cutting of a birthday cake and a charity raffle in aid of LEAP Housing and Support
