Harbors, Heroes & Horizons: The Ultimate Portsmouth Timewalk

Audio guide15 stops

Gunfire once echoed along Portsmouth’s harbourside while secrets whispered through its ancient stones. Beneath the city’s modern bustle waits a history woven with shattered masts, royal intrigues, and silent rebellion. This self-guided audio tour leads you deep into Portsmouth’s heart. Discover overlooked stories as you stroll from the majestic spire of Portsmouth Cathedral to the sunken glory of the Mary Rose and the towering might of HMS Warrior. Why did desperate sailors risk everything for escape at Gunwharf Quays? What chilling truth lies beneath centuries-old church floors? Which royal scandal almost doomed an entire fleet here—and why did it involve a certain salty pie? Move beyond postcards and guidebooks. Trace the winding routes of kings and outcasts through smoky taverns and on to briny dockyards. Let lost voices rise as you unlock a new vision of this city by the sea. Begin now and hear Portsmouth reveal its secrets where cannons once spoke.
