Arundel Historic Tours Now incorporating Talks and ‘On Tour’ bringing Arundel alive Wherever you are.
Martin and Gwenn Alderton locals from Arundel have developed a fascinating tour of historic Arundel. People living locally as well as Tourists, Language Schools, coach parties and day trippers have been introduced to the intriguing insight into the Roman and Victorian through to anecdotal facts and changes throughout the town.
During the walk they make reference to photo books showing the town 100 years ago, the changes, the changing face and the unusual. The pictures are fascinating in themselves but being on the tour and seeing the places now and how they were and the history or story behind them, sometimes bizarre, makes the tour a must for history lovers and for people intrigued by local knowledge.
For coach parties to small groups they have devised an illustrated talk, if walking is difficult or time is short they take groups to the town square and relate all our knowledge and display the pictures they have.
Arundel Historical Tours and Talks are educational to, so they are looking to use their knowledge and pictorial history to do presentations at local schools and colleges. The Arundel Walking Tours ‘On Tour’ is being developed to take to those who are unable to get to Arundel or just unable to do the tour for whatever reason. They are looking to present to care homes, family gatherings, WI's, rehabilitation centres, retirement clubs and the like.
“Hi Martin I am sitting back with a pint reflecting on the fascinating time we spent with you today slowly strolling through old Arundel and taking in its special significance and charm. Your quiet passion for the town of your birth and its incredible history as well as your wealth of carefully researched detail made the buildings and hidden uniqueness come alive for us. We saw it through new eyes - those which deeply appreciate and love it“. This from South African Doctors who toured recently.
You too can experience the wonder that is Arundel and learn of its history and treasures … Call Us or Email and let’s start the process, share the tour with friends, colleagues, family or with companions.

Arundel Historic Tours
Exclusions apply: Tours available daily at 14.30. Pre-booking is essential by calling 0 7443 896480. Quote Southern Rail for discount. Printed paper voucher required Arundel, Castle town, Cathedral Town and the town with one Church that has two denominations. That's the headlines but it doesn’t scratch the surface of the history, architecture, businesses and attractions that fill the town. A Tour is the best way to learn and see why the town is here and is unique in many ways.
Arundel has had a Castle since 1067 it is said although there has been some kind of fortress there, probably Saxon, for much longer. The history of the Castle and the Dukes are baffling, and so I suggest a visit to get acquainted with both. Outside the Castle are the delights of the town for you to explore, enjoy the hospitality, the feel of the small arcades, the galleries and antique shops. Explore the variety of cafes and restaurants, check out the take home gift shops or just sit beside the river. A visit to the Cathedral is a must, although it was only built in 1868 and not a Cathedral until 1964, its Gothic design and impressive Rose stain glass window is a sight to see, and the acoustics inside, if your lucky to hear the organ playing, is awesome. So, Arundel, why so special, it’s hard to say precisely, ambling along Tarrant Street, the towns array of different architectural styles, the coffee shops and pubs, the lovely independent shops. The events across the year from Corpus Christie, Farmers Markets to Festival and Christmas, the walks, the river bank, the lake, the park, so much to see and do at a leisurely pace.
