About this activity
Take Birmingham at your own pace with your own dedicated guide on this special 3 hour Birmingham City & Jewellery Quarter Tour. Choose any start time, and we can pick you up at your hotel in the city centre.
Immerse yourself in the sights and sounds of the city as you travel back through the centuries to discover how our city exploded from a small market town, to the second largest city in the UK.
On our longest private tour, see everything you need to see in Birmingham, from the key sights in the city centre to the historically-important jewellery quarter area of the city.
You'll not only see and learn about our history, but you’ll also gain an authentic insight into modern life in the city today and explore some hidden gems along the way! From Birmingham’s boom during the industrial revolution, to our iconic canals, and of course, the home of Cadbury chocolate! There’s something for everyone on this unique experience.
