Banksy, Blackbeard and Beyond: A Bristol Self Guided Walking Tour

In 2006, Bristol woke up to find a cheeky mural on a wall — and 97% of residents voted to keep it. That mural by Banksy changed how an entire city thinks about street art. This self-guided audio walking tour takes you there, and through 1,000 years of Bristol's best stories — from the pub where Blackbeard planned his raids and Defoe found Robinson Crusoe, to a medieval clock with two minute hands and where the phrase "pay on the nail" was born.

Available in 9 languages with offline access, you start whenever you like, pause for a pint at a 17th-century inn, and pick up right where you left off.

No group to follow, no fixed schedule — just your phone, headphones, and 14 stops across Bristol, a city reckoning honestly with its slave-trading past.

Over 20,000 travellers have used our self-guided tours, and every booking comes with a full refund guarantee. If you want to explore Bristol at your own pace with stories you won't find on a signpost, this Bristol audio tour was made for you.
