Alternative Tourist Experiences – Because Boring Just Won’t Do

Forget your bog-standard bus tours and tiresome queues outside overrated landmarks. This is tourism, but not as you know it. These alternative tourist experiences are for those who demand more from their travels – a deep dive into the beating heart of a city, its quirks, its legends, and, let’s be honest, its best food and drink. Whether it’s sipping gin in a classic Mini Cooper, unearthing hidden music venues, or walking in the footsteps of James Bond himself, these experiences turn the expected on its head.
