Attractions

What makes a great day out? For you, perhaps it’s family fun and activities for the kids. Or maybe you’d like to explore Chester and Cheshire’s history and heritage or feel the thrill of the race. Maybe you’d like to kick back and relax cruising down the river?

Shouting out the list of attractions and things to do in Chester would tire even our Town Crier. But we’ve made it easy – simply search for the attractions that might interest you and we’ll show you the best Chester has to offer. Whatever your age, whoever you’re coming with, no matter your interests, you’ll find the familiar and the different, so ringing the changes and trying something new has never been easier.

No matter what your preference or how you want to spend your day, you’ll find Chester and Cheshire attractions that perfectly suit your mood. You’ll be able to fill a couple of hours or while away a whole day. You’ll be entertained, maybe enlightened and if you’ve got kids you’ll find more than enough to do to avoid those cries of ‘I’m bored!’
