Audio Tour (Self-guided)

Duration: Totally up to you! (Allow 1 – 1.5 hours to follow whole tour.)
Suitable for: All ages
Notes: Easy-to-use audio tour with hearing loop. The walkie-talkie-sized audio tour handset is collected and explained at ticket office on arrival. Tour includes steps and the fort on two levels. 

Visit the inner and outer parades, the keeps, batteries, magazine tunnels, barrack rooms, gun casements and so much more!

With sound effects and stories, voices from the past and plenty of detail and directions, this free audio not only brings Landguard Fort to life, but allows you to explore totally at your own pace. Simply follow the numbered audio tour points, guided by the audio tour directions if you wish or explore the fort your own way and stop when you find a numbered point which you would like to find out more about.

When you are ready at each audio point, select the appropriate number / press play to hear all about the exhibit, area or a story from its past. Using the handset, you can review, re-listen or replay the sound-bites at your leisure.
