The Carlisle Audio Tour is available for £4.99 and covers 15 stops across the city. Participants can download the GPS-triggered audio for offline use and explore at their own pace without a fixed start time.
Highlights GPS-triggered audio plays automatically as you approach each landmark - explore Carlisle at your own pace, with no group and no fixed start time. 15 stops across Carlisle, roughly 92 minutes of narration, walked in whatever order and at whatever speed suits you. Works fully offline once downloaded, so you need no data or signal while you walk. Your code never expires and there is no fixed date - buy now and use it whenever you next visit. Explore Carlisle at your own pace Beneath the ancient skyline of Carlisle, hidden stories linger in every red-brick shadow and echo off cathedral spires. This self-guided audio tour turns your walk through Caldewgate into a vivid adventure, unwrapping secrets and scandals most travelers never glimpse. What was the spark behind dramatic student protests at St Martin's College that drew MPs to the streets? Which forgotten rituals once unfolded under the blue clock tower of Our Lady and St Joseph's Church? Why did hospital corridors here see both heartbreak and hope before transforming into university lecture halls? Stride from military barracks to sacred towers, across academic battlegrounds and spiritual refuges. Each step reveals layers of rebellion, reinvention, and unlikely heroes who forever shaped Carlisle's heart.
