If you're a **history** lover, take one of the city's many walking or cycling tours. Discover the region's rich past from prehistoric Iron Age to Roman invasion (take a day-trip to the famous Hadrian's Wall!) or experience the grandeur of stunning medieval castles.
 
If you're more of a gastronaut there are plenty of great **pubs** and **restaurants** to explore. A prefect way to discover these is on a guided food, wine or pub tour.

If you're a **sports** enthusiast, experience the electric atmosphere of an English Premier League football match, cheering on Newcastle United at St Jame's Park.

But that's just skimming the surface. There's so much more: grooving out at a silent disco; getting spooked out on a true crime tour; or getting your phone out and playing Sherlock Holmes Newcastle City Game (you collect clues around the city to solve a mystery!)
