Medieval Lavenham: A Self-Guided Audio Tour

This is THE walk for those people who have always wanted to walk along enough medieval streets to make up a whole medieval village. Maybe your interest in old timbered buildings was awakened by Tolkien or Harry Potter? Every street leads to the Market Square and every street has timbered houses along the route. It is one of those places that you visit once and then fall in love with. Even on the bleakest of days, there are people looking around the streets. Having been brought up in the area I have collected various stories about these buildings. Here I share such stories in an audio tour. This is a tour where the Tudor wool traders start to be more than words in a book. The Dukes of Oxford (the De Vere family) and the wealthiest commoners in England rubbed shoulders in these streets 900 years ago. We seek out the clues that they left behind over the centuries to get a glimpse into their lives.

Vikings, Rebels, Monks and Monarchs Self Guided Tour of Dublin

During the Easter Rising, a toll collector on the Ha'penny Bridge tried to charge armed rebels half a penny each to cross. None of them paid. That kind of story shapes this self-guided audio walking tour of Dublin, narrated through your phone as you walk at your own pace. Across 15 stops, see bullet holes on a triumphal arch Dubliners called Traitor's Gate, stand where a park keeper negotiated ceasefires to feed the ducks, step into Trinity's Old Library where Queen Victoria signed the Book of Kells, and end above the hidden river that gave the city its name. No fixed start time, no group to keep up with. Listen in your preferred language, pause whenever, and revisit stops freely. Ideal if you'd rather explore Dublin's Vikings, poets, and rebels on your own terms, not herded between photo stops. Over 20,000 travelers have used our Dublin audio tour and others like it.

Bury St Edmunds' Abbey Ruins: A Self-Guided Walking Tour

Once the greatest medieval monastery in England, the abbey at Bury St Edmunds now stands in ruins, with its vast monastic complex forming a beautiful public garden. On this self-guided audio tour, you'll explore the remains of the abbey church and its surrounding buildings, piecing together the history of this much-overlooked heritage site. The tour starts on Chequer Square, and you'll walk through the remains of the monastic complex. Starting with the Norman Tower, one of the best-preserved 12th-century buildings in England, and the former monastery's west front, we'll uncover the shape, style, and scale of this now long-lost structure. The tour continues through the medieval Abbey Gate, with its richly decorated Gothic façade, before visiting St Edmundsbury Cathedral, a masterpiece of 21st-century Gothic architecture. Finally, the tour ends at St Mary's church, which contains the tomb of Mary Tudor, Queen of France and sister of Henry VIII.
