Meet at Bristol’s Corn Exchange for a two-hour guided visit to hidden passageways, rooftop viewpoints, World War II air raid shelters, and former music rooms.

“This is a fascinating and entertaining tour. While the wartime stories may be familiar to some of us, the experience of visiting such a hidden part of Bristol just underneath a well known landmark is fantasic. Our guide Theresa was passionate, very knowledgable and ensured that everybody got the most out of the tour. She also pressed on in the outdoor part of the tour despite the gale force winds and rain!”
