Self-guided audio tour by AudaTours exploring a dozen historic landmarks around Lincoln Cathedral at your own pace.
Lincoln Audio Tour: Unveiling History's Treasures is a self-guided walk through the city, starting at Lincoln Drill Hall on Freeschool Lane. It's an open-ended tour, so there's no fixed date to work around—you just pick your own day and set your own pace.
It's delivered by AudaTours through their app, which works fully offline once you've downloaded it. You'll get up to 30 minutes of narration recorded by professional guides, all drawn from verified historical sources. The whole thing takes about an hour and ten minutes to complete, covering around 2.7 kilometres and a dozen landmarks, all beneath the shadow of Lincoln Cathedral. The route takes you past The Collection, where Roman mosaics lie buried beneath the modern street; Jew's House, where a single accusation sparked violence that shook a kingdom; Norman House, Lincoln Castle, the Medieval Bishop's Palace, Vicars' Court, Newport Arch, and the city's oldest limestone arches on Steep Hill.

It's a walk rather than a guided visit, so there's no in-person guide to lead the way, and the ticket doesn't include entry to any of the buildings or sites along the route. You'll be hearing the stories while you stand outside them, so it's one for when you're happy to wander and take it in on your own terms. The ticket costs £3.99.
