Dundee Howff
Howff Graveyard Tour with Dundee Waterfront Walks.
Meet in Meadowside entry (not Barrack Street ) in Dundee city centre. Close to McManus Museum. A friendly, guided walk through hundreds of years of Dundee History. The fascinating story of the city and its citizens is written on the stones.
The tour is over uneven surfaces and different terrains. It is around 3/4 of a mile (1208 metres) in distance and lasts for around an hour and 15 minutes.
Tours will go ahead irrespective of the weather. Please do take care to dress accordingly . You must have on stout waterproof footwear for your own comfort and safety .We will be walking on fairly good cobbled paths much of the time, but will be on grass or earth at gravesides, at other times. We are situated at the Tay estuary , leading to the North Sea and the weather is changeable. Dundee is , however, the sunniest city in Scotland . It will be fun!
Please note that your tour ticket price does not entitle you to entry to any of the attractions which we will view or discuss. We would however be glad to recommend that you do try to visit or investigate them for yourselves. Tour tickets are for sale online only . Sorry no refunds after ticket purchase.
***Whilst all guests are welcome, this tour may not suit those who would find the terrain, footpaths and diversions to gravesides problematic. Guests are asked to check in advance whether or not they would in fact wish to undertake the tour under these circumstances. We wish to avoid any disappointment.***
If a guest is attending with a Carer to assist with mobility, the guest can buy a ticket at the Concessionary rate and the Carer will go free.
