Chester Travel Tips
Chester travel tips courtesy of GeckoGo
  • Based on an ancient Roman City. Parking in town is super expensive, so take the park and ride into the city. Main street shopping is great with lots of Edwardian buildings. Make sure you visit the (free) Chester museum, was nearly empty when we went and was a great refuge from the cruddy weather!  Belinda M.
  • A good city to visit if you are interested in history, especially Roman history. They have actual Roman ruins.  Claire D.
  • a cute, black-and-white town with marvelous spots  Veronika R.
