HADRIAN'S WALL TOUR ITINERARY
Travel back in time to ancient Rome! Begin your journey at the starting point of Hadrian's Wall at Pons Aelius. Your guide will give you a brief understanding of the historical connections between the Newcastle today and the Roman Empire in 122AD.
Travel west into Northumberland and explore Heddon-on-the-Wall. Get a first glimpse of how the wall, take a short walk on it, understand how was constructed and how large the wall really is (not only in height).
Enter the heart of the Roman Frontier within the Northumberland National Park! The landscapes & scenery are stunning! Enjoy some fantastic photo opportunities or even a short walk along the wall.
Visit Vindolanda Roman Fort and discover why this is our absolute favourite. The site is extensively excavated and archaeologists flock here each year (with any luck we will get the chance to speak to excavators as they work) to uncover more.
