The UK’s Second City only in size, Birmingham is packed full of historic sights, iconic art, edgy street art, galleries, museums, world cuisine and most importantly, an industrial and bold spirit. With more canals than Venice, more parks than Paris and the youngest population in Europe, Birmingham has always been unique in spirit and bold in identity.

This city played a vital role in standing up to slavery, at the cost of its own economy and we will share many other stories that will astound and inspire in equal measure. The sights will do likewise as we visit the independent quarter, boasting some of the best street art and street food in the country.

At the other end of the spectrum, Birmingham boasts 6 Michelin starred restaurants, grand architecture and world class concert halls. We will show you the sights and bring them to life with the stories even the locals don’t know!

The history of Birmingham precedes the Middle Ages but it was at the blazing forefront of the Industrial revolution ad though it bears the scars of the Second World War and its bombings, it wears them defiantly- moving forward with trendsetting the Arts and Crafts Movement, leading modernist
architecture and inviting communities from every corner of the globe. Join us, we will show you around!
