Attractions for Groups

Chester has been welcoming visitors since the Roman Empire built the Fortress of Deva here 2000 years ago. Discover Chester’s fascinating history with your very own Roman Tour. Alternatively, relax and take in the breath-taking views as you cruise down the River Dee with ChesterBoat.

Chester and Cheshire is an area full of iconic attractions including the awe-inspiring Storyhouse and magnificent Chester Cathedral in the heart of the city, not forgetting the award-winning Chester Zoo, with 15,000 wonderful animals and 500 different species. Also on the outskirts of the city centre, shoppers will find discounts galore at Cheshire Oaks Designer Outlet, with over 145 stores selling designer brands up to 60% less.

Rich in industrial heritage, Cheshire provides the perfect opportunity for groups to have a fun and interesting day out. Treat yourself with a visit to the Lion Salt Works Museum, Anderton Boat Lift and Weaver Hall Museum & Workhouse in Northwich. Or head to Port Sunlight Museum & Garden Village in Ellesmere Port followed with an afternoon at The National Waterways Museum on the banks of the River Mersey. Alternatively, Jodrell Bank celebrates all things scientific in Cheshire.

Last but not least, Cheshire’s Gardens of Distinction are a must for groups. Explore the archaeology at Norton Priory Museum & Gardens, marvel at the superb collections on display at Ness Botanic Gardens and visit the unmissable Tatton Park; a Georgian estate sitting in 1000 acres of stunning parkland.
