Cathedral Close & Bishop’s Palace Garden 

Discover one of the oldest and most beautiful cities in England with Exeter’s Red Coat Guides. These FREE guided walking tours operate daily throughout the year, offering a wide range from which to choose. Meet your Red Coat Guide at the starting point and discover historic Exeter for yourself.

Tours will only go ahead with a minimum of two people and may be subject to cancellation without notice. Our walking tours depart from the Hooker Statue on Cathedral Green (apart from the Historic Quayside tour) and last approximately 90 minutes, unless otherwise stated. All tours start promptly at the time advertised. Only assistance dogs are permitted on tours, and children under 16 must be accompanied by an adult.

Out of consideration for the guides and others on the tour, you must not attend if you have symptoms or have recently been exposed to Covid-19.
