Event information

Tours for all are designed so that families and adults of all ages can enjoy the tour. Your guide will cater the tour to the participants on the tour. We recommend that the tours are suitable for people aged 6yrs and over.

Southampton was devastated by enemy bombing during the Second World War and many of the distinctive pre-war landmarks disappeared overnight. In this special walking tour, join historian and guide Andy Skinner for an exploration of Southampton's Old Town with a specific focus on the story of the Southampton Blitz. You will spot areas above ground that were affected by bombing and descend into some of the medieval vaults that were used as air-raid shelters during the war.

Please meet 10 minutes before the tour start time in St Michael's Square. The tour will last approximately 90 minutes. Regrettably it is unsuitable for wheelchair users and those with mobility concerns.

Please bring a torch and suitable footwear.
