Tour Overview
This self-guided audio tour will take you around the city centre of the Welsh capital.
The tour begins outside the main entrance to Cardiff Castle. You can get directions to the start point here.
You’ll make your way along the river edge past Cardiff’s iconic stadium. Then, you’ll return back towards the castle down the bustling St Mary’s Street where you’ll see Cardiff Market and St John the Baptist Church. The second half of the tour will take you towards the Civic Centre where you’ll find City Hall and the National Museum.
Note: This tour goes down the Millennium Walkway which runs past the Principality Stadium. This is open between 10am-5pm, although may be closed if there are gigs or sports matches on at the stadium. When the walkway is closed, you can divert down the right-hand side of the River Taff instead.
