Overview

A city centre walk. Incorporating the perimeter of the floating harbour. Many points of interest on the way. There's an optional excursion up Brandon Hill to the Cabot monument, optional tower climb with great views over Bristol. There are more cafes than you can shake a stick at. So plenty of opportunities for coffee and cake.
