   Is the Lancaster Castle tour worth a visit?

   • The Lancaster Castle tour was fascinating, and would not have been the same without David Dale as the tour guide. He made the dark & grim history of the castle interesting & respectfully comical. I would highly recommend this experience to anyone, especially if you can get David as your guide! We’ve just had the guided tour of Lancaster Castle.
