You’ll learn about Bristol culture, including the famous street art, and discover some of the amazing history of Bristol, making new friends along the way.

The tour is free but you’ll need to cover your own transport costs and any personal expenses. We recommend downloading the First Bus app before the event so you can buy your own bus ticket to the city centre. You can also pay on the bus using a contactless card.
