Frequently asked questions

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: 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
