Towns & Cities

So many of our towns and cities have a story to tell us. Quirky buildings which make us smile, and magnificent buildings which make us gasp. Proud parks created by Royalty, and glorious gardens resplendent in colour. Bustling canals where people are active, and slow-running rivers where people are playing. Intriguing characters who made a difference, and momentous individuals who shaped our lives.
Discover their stories, and the heritage they created, with Curious About...

What people are saying...

"Yesterday my sister and I had a brilliant day in Oxford following the Town and Gown walk in your Curious About.. Oxford book. We had a fantastic time, and it gave us an opportunity to look at new things we'd never noticed before in a very familiar city to us. Thank you"

Discover UK Towns & Cities

If you're curious about the town or city that you're visiting, you'll love what we've created. With our comprehensive booklets directing you to the most fascinating areas, you'll discover what's important, at your own speed, and level of interest. And it's not just the obvious places - we make sure you visit the unusual ones too, with hidden treasures to discover, creating the complete story of the town or city, and revealing the personality of the place you're visiting. Added to this we provide compelling stories about the history around you, whilst you find answers to clues along the way - so you see everything there is to see, and have some fun too!

What do you get?
  

Downloadable or Printed Booklet
An overview of two walks, which can be enjoyed separately, or joined together to form one longer walk. A brief history of the town or city, followed by helpful information about the walks with easy directions, and clues to find and answer along the way. We give you longer descriptions about things of significant interest, and supply a detailed map of the area you walk. Answers to clues are provided, telling you clearly where they are - so you can spend as much, or as little, time as you want to find them!

Who is it aimed at?

Curious People!
People with personality, who appreciate useful information, but also like discovering things for themselves, and having some fun!
That means you can be young, middle-aged or just young at heart. You might be an individual, a couple, a family or a group. You'll be interested in finding out a bit more about a particular town or city, but in a light way, with entertainment thrown in.
For those with walking difficulties, we've graded each walk so you know what to expect.
