This is not just any city tour, but an immersive experience with the world’s foremost expert on King Arthur.
Join acclaimed author and investigator Graham Phillips for an exclusive one-day journey through Winchester, the city most closely tied to the Arthurian legend. Drawing on nearly 50 years of research and headline-making discoveries, Graham explores the myth, the romance, and the historical reality of Britain’s most enduring story—exactly where it unfolded.
Throughout the day, you will visit key Arthurian locations, including:
-The ruins of St Mary’s Abbey, where ancient manuscripts preserved the legend
-The Abbey Garden, where Thomas Malory shaped the most famous Arthurian tale
-The Water Garden, once a sacred well linked to legends of the Holy Grail
-The Cathedral Close, said to be the site where Arthur drew the sword from the stone
-Winchester’s Great Hall, home of the Round Table and new discoveries linking it to Arthur’s era
-The remains of an ancient fort possibly occupied by Arthur himself
-The traditional site where Excalibur was cast away, revealing the truth behind the sword
This is not a standard tour, but a unique, expertly guided exploration of history, myth, and evidence, set within the powerful landscape of Winchester. Book now and step into the legend...
