Q:
Where can I park?
A:
We start these tours at 1815 to take advantage of free car parking on some of the streets of Southampton after 1800 hours on weekdays. There is paid, on-street car parking on Palmerston Road, between Houndwell and Hoglands Park. The tour meets at the Bargate which is just a couple of minutes walk away
Q:
Do I need to bring anything with me?
A:
No, but please do dress appropriately for a walking tour. A small torch might be useful if it will be dark during some or all of your tour
Q:
Does the tour start and finish at the same point?
A:
It starts at the Bargate and normally finishes a little further down the High Street (depending on which vaults we visit). Our guide, usually wearing a red SEE Southampton jacket, will meet you under the arch of the Bargate for a prompt 6.15pm start
Q:
Can I take photographs?
A:
Yes, photographs are allowed throughout the tour
Q:
Will I be sent more details about the meeting time and meeting point once I have booked?
A:
Yes. We normally email you a few days before each tour to reconfirm the meeting point and time. If you have any queries in the meantime, please do email hello@experiencehampshire.uk
Q:
What happens in the event of bad weather?
A:
We try not to cancel these tours unless the forecast is really heavy persistent rain, heavy snow and/or high winds. If the weather isn't looking great, please do wrap up warm and make sure you have a waterproof/windproof layer on

Q:
Is this walk suitable for those who have limited mobility, use a 'walker' or who are on crutches?
A:
I am afraid that because of the nature of this tour (visiting underground vaults built many centuries ago) that it is NOT suitable for those who have mobility issues - sorry
Q:
Are children able to join this tour?
A:
Youngsters are more than welcome although, it is a 2 hour tour with a good amount of history to absorb. There is only one ticket price, so no reduction for children - sorry
Q:
I have another question. Can you help please?
A:
Of course! Whilst we are essentially a tech business, we have a small, friendly team behind the scenes just ready to answer any questions that you have. Just email them on hello@experiencehampshire.uk
