Tour description

Discover the main places in Birmingham, cradle of the Industrial Revolution, with our Free Historical Tour of Birmingham .

Birmingham is the unknown jewel of England. Its gastronomic, recreational and cultural offer is worthy of the second largest city after London.

Birmingham's past begins in the 7th century and extends to today as the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution.

We will get to know its emblematic buildings and how its history is intertwined with the history of its main characters.

Did you know that Birmingham was already a center of trade in the 10th century? Do you know why the bull is the symbol of Birmingham?

We will meet characters like Joseph Chamberlain or John Baskerville without forgetting James Brindley , creator of this city's canals.

Whether you're traveling alone, with family or friends, join us to discover Birmingham's fascinating history. Book your place now and immerse yourself in the magic of a city that went from an industrial melting pot to a cultural gem in the heart of England.

Don't let it go!

I accept payments in pounds sterling and by debit or credit card.

Keep in mind that Free Tour does not mean "free", but rather "free of charge". Free tours incur a series of expenses that are covered with donations given by clients at the end of the tour based on their satisfaction. Although a specific amount should never be required, guides can suggest an approximate amount based on what is usual.

The length and duration of a tour are variable and subject to a variety of factors that can influence how the tourist experience is planned and executed.

Santiago es un gran guía de su ciudad (Birmingham) pero además es un ser humano excepcional. Sincero, divertido y valiente se ha mimetizado con esta enigmática ciudad y sé que seguirá cosechando éxitos en el futuro cercano. Crece a marchas forzadas como Birmingham. Gracias y hasta siempre!

La atencion muy buena del guía, eso si. Pero entre otras cosas, que no vienen a cuento, destacar que no se si fue porque tenía prisa, o qué, pero 2:45 tenía que durar aproximadamente, y duró 2:10. Hubo paradas que no hicimos.
