Ahoy there! Prepare for a real eye-opener as I take you back through centuries of history without overwhelming you with information. We’ll stroll through my home town of Falmouth from one end of the town to the other. We'll start from The Moor, go up the old High Street then along each of the historic quays to end near the National Maritime Museum, discovering a town steeped in maritime history. Along the way I’ll tell you stories and point out things most people completely miss, many of them in plain view! During the walk you’ll see locations where the most significant events took place in Falmouth’s history, hear about the people at the heart of the town’s story and learn how Falmouth has evolved over the centuries to become the iconic maritime hub it is today. But be ready for some dark tales, including cannibalism, shipwreck and piracy! There'll be ample time to take photos of the narrow alleyways, cobbled streets and picturesque views across the Fal estuary to help remember your experience. You are most welcome to take a copy of my quirky hand-drawn map of the route as a souvenir. You should come away from this experience with a new appreciation of it's rich history. Please get in touch if the dates/times available don't suit your schedule.
