Guided Town Walks of Historic Cirencester
Join us for a guided town walk of historic Cirencester led by one of our volunteer guides.
Hear about Cirencester’s 2,000 year history from the Romans to the present day and many of the people involved.
Guided town walks are suitable for adults, children and dogs, each walk covers a distance of about one and a half miles and takes 75-90 minutes to complete.
Guided Town Walks
Guided ‘turn-up-and-walk‘ town walks run from April to October.
Meet your guide outside the south porch of the parish church in the Market Square. Just look for the information board (see picture).

- April – Saturdays and Sundays.
- May, June & July – Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays.
- August – Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays.

If you and your friends and family are visiting Cirencester on any other day or at any other time during the summer or if you’re visiting Cirencester during the winter season (November to March), guided town walks are still available. You can pre-book a guided town walk by contacting:
