- Join me for an epic walk around the centre of one of Britain's greatest cities: Newcastle upon Tyne! With history dating right back to the Roman era, there is so much to see in Newcastle, including the city's distinctive Georgian architecture, its spectacular bridges, some beautiful churches, one of England's most legendary football stadiums, and so much more!
On our walk around Newcastle, we pass so many interesting landmarks, including (but not limited to): the River Tyne, the Tyne Bridge, Swing Bridge, High Level Bridge, Castle Stairs, The Castle (Newcastle Castle), the 'Black Gate', Newcastle Cathedral, the statue of Robert Stephenson, Newcastle Station, St. Mary's Catholic Cathedral, The Gate, Grainger Market, Central Exchange, Grey's Monument, Northumberland Street, St. Thomas' Church, Newcastle South African War Memorial, Haymarket Bus Station, St. Thomas' Crescent, Leazes Park, Leazes Terrace, St. James' Park Stadium, Chinatown, Newcastle old town walls, Morden Tower, Hadrian's Tower, Bigg Market Fountain, Grey Street, Railway Viaduct and then back down to the River Tyne!

I was living in this beautiful city during my PhD study. I spent there about 5 years. They were the best years I lived ever.
The people of Newcastle are the best, they are open, kind and happy all the time. I miss Newcastle every day and every hour and hope just to visit it even for few days. peace on you mu lovely city.
It's an absolutely marvellous city - and you're very lucky to have spent so much time there! The people of Newcastle make it an absolutely wonderful place to visit and live - and I'm sure you have some amazing memories of the city :)
Thank you very much for watching - I really hope you enjoyed the video!
Bless you Gamal... lovely comments
As a Geordie based in Hong Kong for 10 years (another incredible city), it’s safe to say I’ve been about a bit, yet, I can’t help but agree Newcastle is the best city in the world. The mixture of the architecture, the warm atmosphere, the diversity of people and the crisp fresh air, just make it such a brilliant place. Got a bit homesick watching this 😂
Is it nicer than Hong Kong or Singapore?
Yeh but Hong Kong (maybe it will change) just seemed to work so well.
@@jakehowie442 Singapore isn’t in my top ten to be honest. It’s a pretty place but it’s boring and stuffy. Hong Kong is epic, but as far as welcoming and friendliness goes it’s a close second to Newcastle. Air quality here is rubbish. Also the government here is “a bit much”.
@@valuetraveler2026 HK is awesome. However in my time here, it has changed so much politically and safety wise.
Isn’t Hong Kong basically under Chinese rule at this point..? They should’ve stayed with Britain as part of the commonwealth
It just shows how us Geordies are so fortunate to live in such a fantastic City.
Absolutely! Newcastle is one of the greatest cities in the world - and certainly a wonderful place to live :)
Thank you so much for watching - I hope you enjoyed the video!
@@LetsWalkUK Nice location 👍👍👍

@@LetsWalkUK Do you actually live (or lived) in Newcastle? We are thinking to probably move there with my partner, but still think of what to choose, between Manchester and Newcastle...🤔 I'm not a big fan of Manchester, tbh, I find them a bit too..... chav-ish, so to say. I'm really sorry, no offense to anyone, but I didn't feel extremely safe there when we stayed there for a whole month, even in the city center. Newcastle seemed way friendlier and kinda more safe, however we didn't manage to stay in Newcastle for more than just few days...
I've seen a lot of these but this is the best so far with no annoying music or spoken commentary.
Thank you so much! I'm really glad to hear you enjoyed the video - I like to think that without music or spoken commentary you can experience these walks as immersively as possible - with a bit of info at the bottom of the screen too :)
Thank you for watching and your very kind comment - it means a lot!
@@LetsWalkUK Forgot to say also that I was impressed with the accuracy of the supplementary information provided!
Non-Geordie from Ipswich here. Lived in the city 82-93. This makes me feel like going back. Live in Chester now but Geordieland wipes the floor with it. Love it
I'm so glad to hear it! Newcastle is such a spectacular city and a place that rightly gets overwhelming praise from people who have lived or visited there - myself included! I'm really glad this video brought you back some nice memories of the city, and thank you very much for watching :)
Great mudflood down Dean Street, thanks!
Thank you so much! I'm really glad to hear you enjoyed the video :)
Thanks ever so much for the lovely video. It was a wonderful trip down memory lane for me. I was a graduate student at Newcastle University in the early 80s and truly enjoyed my stay there. I have lived in quite a few countries, and I personally believe that nobody compares to the Geordies. They are so friendly and hospitable. Thanks again!
Couldn't agree more! I'm sure you had an absolutely wonderful time studying in Newcastle - it's easily one of the best cities in the UK :)
Thank you so much for watching - I'm so glad you enjoyed the video and that it brought back some nice memories for you!
Hi Linda what was the university like
Also, we get everywhere!
I've been all over and we're always fairly easy to find
❤
God were missing Newcastle go there every year for a long stay hope to see you next year
It's a great city! I hope you get the chance to visit sooner rather than later :)
Thank you so much for watching - I really hope you enjoyed the video!
Thanks for this video. I used to live and work in Newcastle and Gateshead (in fact, at the very end of your video, was the building I worked in: The Sage Gateshead). I have a lot of love for the place, it's where I met my wife and where my first child was born.
For personal reasons I've been really missing the place since the end of last year so this has brought back a lot of memories and emotions.
That's wonderful to hear - thank you so much for sharing some of those memories with us! As you say, Newcastle is a really wonderful city, and one I always love to visit whenever I'm in the region :)
I hope you get the chance to go back soon, but I'm really glad to hear you enjoyed the video in the meantime! Thank you so much for watching!
@@LetsWalkUK are Gateshead people geordies as well I heard some say they are others say they aren't ?
As a Geordie now living abroad!!! I found this video to warm my heart and soul, it brought years to my eyes just seeing my beloved home again!!! I can't wait to get back to visit as soon as I can....love the work!!!! You just made my evening.
I'm so glad to hear it! Newcastle is a spectacular city and certainly a place to be proud of for all Geordies as I'm sure you know - I really hope you get the chance to return to Tyneside soon :)
Thank you so much for watching - I'm so glad you enjoyed the video and that it brought back some memories of this great city!
Thank you so much for the video...I fell in love with Newcastle in 1995, of course due to the football club. When I was in England, I was driving from London to Edinburgh and could not stop by Newcastle due to time constraint. I still regret it but this video alleviates it to an extent. I learned a lot. I hope someday to be able to live there.
I'm really glad you enjoyed the video! Newcastle is an absolutely spectacular city and certainly not a place to be rushed - so don't worry that you didn't get the chance to visit on your drive up to Edinburgh, Newcastle deserves a whole trip in itself :)
I hope you get the chance to visit (or even live) there someday - and maybe cheer on the Toon at St. James' Park too :)
Thank you so much for watching!
That's my city. For extra homework, check out the Tyne Theatre and Opera House, Theatre Royal, Alphabetti Theatre, Gosforth Civic Theatre, Discovery Museum, Hancock Museum, Laing Art Gallery, Betty Surtees House, Tyneside Cinema, Fenwick, and the Victoria Tunnels. There's also a ledgend of an underground Newcastle too. Its a city where you can live for years and still be finding places and new things about the city.
That's a brilliant list! I must say I won't be able to get all of that into one video, but as you say there's loads to discover in Newcastle over years and years of living there - you're certainly very lucky to have lived there for so many years too :)
Thank you very much for watching - I hope you enjoyed the video!
Thank you for the wonderful video. My parents move to Canada when I was young but Newcastle is always HOME! Love my hometown! No better city.
Coming to university here in September. This video has only made me more excited!
I'm glad to hear it! There's a lot to see in Newcastle and this video only just scratches the surface! I'm sure you'll have a brilliant time at university :)
Thanks for watching, I'm really glad you enjoyed the video!
Have a great time at Uni here in Newcastle!!
So many students come here to study and never end up leaving. Ha!
Stay safe and enjoy living in Newcastle! ❤
The Oscar goes to you for this phenomenal portrait of such an awesome city. Let's walk!
Wow! Thank you so much for that! I'm really glad you enjoyed the video - thanks for watching as always, and I hope that the walk gave you a good insight into one of Britain's very best cities.
@@LetsWalkUK I was there some years ago, it is stunning. Your fabulous walkabout and enriching explanations are superb. Let´s walk
I really love this city. It's fresh and historical and modern at same time. Thanks very much for this coverage.
I've never been to Newcastle,after lockdown I might take a visit up there,thanks for all your videos,they have really helped me more than u can know😁
You must do so! It's a really wonderful city and an hour's walk like this barely scratches the surface - so I hope you do take a visit up there one day.
Thank you so much for watching as always - I'm really glad you're enjoying the videos :)
What's keeping ye, bonny lad??
I lived and worked in Newcastle in the late 1970s, early 1980s for about 5 years. I hardly recognize the place ... they've even knocked down the Haymarket pub! The greatest rock pub in history. Vandals!
The Farmers Rest.
Fantastic video thank you so much. As an exiled Geordie, this just reminds me what a brilliant place the Toon is. You have captured its magic so perfectly. Well done!
You're welcome! And thank you very much for watching - I'm not a Geordie myself but I have to agree that Newcastle really is one of the most wonderful cities I've ever visited - you're very lucky to call it home :)
Thank you so much for your kind words!
A massive thank you to everybody for 600 subscribers! I'm really glad to hear that you're all enjoying the videos, and I hope you enjoy this epic walk across the great city of Newcastle :)
This has both cheered me up and made me sad. Because of covid I like many haven't spent much time "down the toon" so it's lovely to see it and you actually walked right up my old street, St Thomas Cres.
Thanks 🤗🌻🌻🌻💐🌷🌷❤❤🌷🌷👍Great channel
@@suz7196 Thank you so much! I'm really glad to hear you enjoyed the video - and I have to say St. Thomas' Crescent is quite the delightful place :)
@@paulfromnewcastle9522 Thank you so much! I'm really glad to hear you're enjoying the videos :)
Actually, I'm surprised you don't have more subscribers. Your walks are wonderful. I predict you will have many more soon.
I have a friend from there. When I asked her what was the best part of the place, she replied, "Pub, pub, pub, pub."
One day I heard a conversation between her and another friend who was from (I think) RedCar. I couldn't understand a word. They both went full Geordie.
It's a beautiful city. I wonder if it' would be an expensive place to visit.
Thanks for the look!
Ha ha ha the Geordies certainly like a good night out! But as I'm sure you know their determination to stay out even in the coldest of winter weather is one of the things that makes the people of Newcastle so great :)
It's indeed a beautiful city, certainly a little more expensive than the likes of Redcar, Middlesbrough and Sunderland down the coast, but there are still direct trains all the way from London too!
Thank you so much for watching and commenting as always - I'm really glad you enjoyed the video!
Thank you for this great video of a city I love. I'm originally from Wallsend but always proud to say that my 'home city' is Newcastle. I now live in Canada but this video made me feel like I was walking around the city. There were two or three disappointments though because you left out some important landmarks which deserved a mention at least! The beautiful Theatre Royal,... Bessie Surtees House near the Quay Side....and even though you were on Grainger Street we didn't get a mention of the Grainger Market! Also would have thought you would have shown the Civic Centre, and Hancock Museum which are important buildings. However overall it was a very good video even though it made me homesick! Newcastle truly is one of the UK's best cities....if not THE best!
Thank you so much! I'm so glad you enjoyed this walk around Newcastle - a city you're certainly very lucky to have lived so close to :)
I do apologise for missing out some of the city's biggest landmarks - Grey Street was certainly a bit of an oversight, along with many of the wonderful places you mentioned too! There's just so much to see and talk about in Newcastle, we could keep walking for days to explore it all :)
One of the best walking videos with its historical descriptions giving a great insight into its past. A lot more to Newcastle than I thought.
That's very kind of you to say! I'm so glad you enjoyed the video and the history of Newcastle, it really is a city filled to the brim with riveting heritage :)
Thank you for watching!
A real discovery for me. I always watch videos of London, I have traveled to UK 4 times .. 3 times to London, 1 time to Birmingham and after seeing your video I find it an interesting alternative .. Thank you very much for your good work, I will follow in your footsteps. Greetings from Gran Canaria ..
Thank you so much! London is a great city with so much to see, but as you say there's so much more to see around the UK too - with amazing cities like Newcastle even more spectacular than London in some places :)
I'm really glad to hear you enjoyed the video - one day I might get the chance to visit the Canary Islands too!
An absolute gem of a video , around one of England’s finest cities . Although I live In Birmingham , I have always enjoyed my visits to the North East & the home of the Toon especially . Love watching the brilliant Vera . Because of Newcastle . Sssh I will whisper it quietly . Looking forward to watching the walk around Sunderland & Middlesbrough.
I've been working in Newcastle lately and it's a fun place to be, I really enjoyed my time there.
That walk down Dean Street can get a little tricky in the winter mind.
Loved this video. Thank you.
fANTASTIC video.. I'm from Newcastle and visit often, it's nice to hear it getting the praise it deserves.
Thank you so much! I'm really glad to hear you enjoyed the video, you're very lucky to call Newcastle your home city - it's certainly one of the greatest places in the country, deserving of all the praise it can get :)
Awesome walk in Newcastle england I enjoyed it and the city. Can't wait to see more soon greetings from Canada 😀😀
It's an absolutely amazing city - and without doubt one of the best in the world!
Thank you so much for watching and commenting as always - I'm so glad you enjoyed the walk around Newcastle :)
You walk along the city streets I used walk along back then , when as a child of eight or nine I got my dads errands and pork sandwiches now and again ! 😊👍🏼♥️🌹
Hi Christine
A great video. I lived in Newcastle in 1950-1952.I remember the yellow trolley buses. I worked for Turner's photographica in Pink Lane. I am so pleased to see the pavements are flagstones and not boring concrete. My mother was from Gateshead , she was a canny lass....... Wally Reeve
You have to look at the old architecture and building and just think how the fook did they manage to build them back in the 1100’s and the 1400’s like how did they manage to get the spires right at the top without the use of cranes etc, it just blows your mind!! It’s incredible.
Absolutely! Some of the buildings in Newcastle are absolutely incredible, especially that spire on the Cathedral. But as we know, Newcastle is one of the cradles of British engineering, so if it's going to work anywhere, it will work in Newcastle!
Thank you so much for watching - I'm really glad you enjoyed the video :)
Thoroughly enjoyed this walk round Newcastle and the history behind it. Excellent 👍🏻
Thank you so much! I'm really glad to hear you enjoyed the video - Newcastle really is an amazing city with so much history on every corner :)
Brilliant film showing Newcastle at it's best. Thank you. Geoff
Thank you so much! There's so much about Newcastle that's great to showcase, and I didn't even manage to fit it all into this one walk :)
Thank you very much for watching and for your very kind words - I'm so glad you enjoyed the video!
Fantastic video as ever, seems quite eerie seeing Northumberland street so quiet!
Thank you so much! I must say it was a little strange there with so few people around, but it's still a very impressive part of a wonderful city :)
Thank you for watching - I'm really glad you liked the video!
Home, sweet home. I've been away for so long. I'll go back for a few days in October. Thanks for the walk along memory lane.
I am from teesside and I love Newcastle 💖
That's wonderful to hear! Newcastle is without doubt one of the country's greatest cities, and a place for the whole North East to be proud of, from Tyneside all the way down to Teesside too :)
Thank you so much for watching - I really hope you enjoyed the video!
Great walk and in a beautiful part of the city. A place full of characters and charms. Got a few ideas for my next visit.
Thank you so much! Newcastle is as beautiful as city centres get around the UK - and just as you say, the people are as charming as they come :)
Thank you for watching - I'm really glad you enjoyed the video!
Fantastic video. Skyscraper City brought me here as it was posted there which has a fantastic catalogue of historic Newcastle and big discussion board. Subscribed!
I'm so glad to hear that my videos have made it onto Skyscraper City - there's so much to learn there!
Thank you so much for coming over and watching the video - I'm really glad to hear you enjoyed it, and many thanks for subscribing :)
Such an interesting city 🤠
It is! So much history wherever you look, and it keeps making more and more of it in the modern day :)
Thank you so much for watching - I'm really glad you enjoyed the video!
I enjoyed my walk with you,your right ,Newcastle is a great city with great people,thanks for the tour,cheers ,alreet,lol
Thank you so much - Newcastle is indeed a great city with some of the proudest and friendliest people in the country, and of course so much to see even on a quick tour of the city centre like this!
Thank you for watching - I'm really glad you enjoyed the video :)
Well it's good to see all around to listen and know what information history and how today its innovation and how the Rome formt this town Newcastle is a great place to living!! The video is very interesting thanks
Nex trip I will come to Newcastle.... beautiful city 💯💯💯💪
That's a very good idea! Newcastle is easily one of the best cities in the country, with so much to do, wonderful people, and riveting history on every corner :)
I hope you have a great time when you visit - and thank you very much for watching the video, I really hope you enjoyed it!
An absolutely spectacular video! I’ve never been there but I’ve felt a pull all my life and then in the past few years just found out that my grannies family immigrated from there! My great grand uncle was one of the founders of the friars club in New York of roast fame. When the boat comes in is a great show about Newcastle!
Best in UK ❤Newcastle and lovely people
Great video, having been born in Gosforth and lived in the South for many years I still consider Newcastle a great city with the friendliest people anywhere in the world
Basil Hume, legend and gentleman 🙏🏻
That was a really great researched walk through my home city.
But.. you should have walked down Grey St from the monument to show the architectural jewel that is the Theatre Royal. Its stunning.
I know, as a geordie I too was wishing he would go down certain streets and show off some places but it was still so nice to see the town. Can't wait for a bit more freedom to just go wandering around myself.
Thank you so much - I'm really glad to hear you liked the video. I do apologise for missing out a walk down Grey Street, but as I'm sure you know it's an absolutely spectacular road to walk down with those buildings lining the edges of the street as you drop down the hill.
Hopefully I did your home city proud with this video :)
Hi there! Thank you so much for watching - I'm glad you enjoyed the video and the chance to see the city. I do apologise for missing out certain streets here and there, but I hope that this walk gave you a nice flavour of Newcastle on screen :)
Yes I agree! I enjoyed the video but was a bit frustrated at not seeing the length of Grey Street from the monument and not seeing the Theatre Royal which is a real jewel of a building. I remember going there as a child to the Christmas Pantomimes and loved it.
Thank you for this video! Newcastle is great city with amazing character!
You're absolutely right! There are few places quite as lovable in the UK as Newcastle, from its gorgeous architecture to its incredible history and of course the famous Geordies who make it so magnificent :)
Thank you so much for watching - I'm really glad you enjoyed the tour!
A great way to see the city, with just the right amount of information and historical points! I also like the fact that there is no voice over commentary, which would spoil the walk, keeping the ambience sound. 5*
Thank you so much for your very kind words! I'm really glad to hear you enjoyed the video - there's so much to discover in Newcastle I couldn't possibly mention everything but I'm delighted you found the history interesting, and the walk a calming and immersive experience :)
@@LetsWalkUK qqqqqqqqq
Thanks so much for the video! It reminded me walking alongside my wife explaining her so many details from Newcastle or the toon! Love the city, love the football club and the fans!! Howay the lads!
This is by far the best video I have seen on Newcastle. Thankyou so much for such incredible insight. I am a Newcastle United supporter and I love the city of Newcastle. I have been twice when I visited the UK from Australia, but regrettably both times were quick visits to catch a game. I am determined to return and thanks to your video and your insight it has inspired me to spend much more time in this beautiful city. Ill be sure to check out more of your videos, keep up the great work 👍
Thank you so much! I'm so glad to hear you enjoyed the video - Newcastle is a truly incredible city as I'm sure you're more than aware with your love of The Magpies and the city and the city as a whole :) It's a place full of history, and even more than I've managed to cover in this video - so you've got a lot to look forward to next time you're there :)
Thank you so much for watching and your very kind words - it means a lot!
things are changing Nathan come again and get in touch...
I really enjoyed this video. I've had the pleasure of visiting Newcastle but, didn't have the opportunity to see as much as this.
Really interesting history and love architecture.
Thank you
Thank you so much - that's so kind of you to say! Newcastle is a spectacular city and as you mention full of riveting history :)
I'm so glad you enjoyed the video and that you had the chance to see some things you might have missed when you've visited Newcastle in the past!
The greatest city.
Absolutely! There are few places quite like Newcastle - I absolutely love it every time I visit :)
Thank you so much for watching - I really hope you enjoyed the video!
What a beautiful city! Becoming more excited to plan my trip : )
What a beautiful city. Thank you so much for this guided tour.
It certainly is a beautiful city - there are few places quite like Newcastle in the world :)
Thank you so much for watching - I'm really glad you enjoyed the video!
I feel asleep five times watching this!
Need to protect those fantastic old buildings.
Absolutely! The Georgian city centre is absolutely spectacular - there really is nowhere like it in the UK - and the buildings from before then (the castle in particular) are spectacular reminders of Newcastle's long past :)
Thank you so much for watching - I really hope you enjoyed the video!
Born in St. Petersburg Russia,
Grew up in good old Newcastle.
An interesting personal history! And you're very lucky to have grown up in such a spectacular city - Newcastle is one of the very best places in the UK, or even the world :)
Thank you so much for watching - I really hope you enjoyed the video!
@@LetsWalkUK I loved it mate, I’ve been subbed for about a month now
I enjoyed watching that, thank you, live in N Yorks, always fancied a visit but 75 and still not been, or Edinburgh. You mentioned the river bars at night, it would have been nice to have rested my legs (!) and sat down with a drink just people watching at sunset!
Love the city vicariously! Wish to visit there someday!
Smooth and nicely shot as always, makes me want to visit. A pleasure to watch. All the best to you and keep them coming!
Thank you so much! I'm so glad you enjoyed the video - Newcastle is such a glorious city and one I love visiting again and again - it's certainly a pleasure to walk around and take in the majesty of the buildings and that spectacular riverside scenery :)
Thank you so much for watching and for your lovely comments - I'm so glad you enjoyed the video!
Thanks for that video, indeed, a really beautiful and charming city with very friendly people
A place in the UK I’ve never been to but would now rather like to, atmospheric and nicely captured friend.
So underrated
You're absolutely right! Newcastle may be far into England's North, but it's an absolute treasure for anyone who visits - and without doubt one of the country's most underrated cities :)
Thank you so much for watching - I'm really glad you enjoyed the video!
@@LetsWalkUK exactly, i visited from london, and i loved newcastle
Cheers to upload of Newcastle upon Tyne but you forgot pass statue near Eldon Square but still good
You're welcome! I'm sorry I missed out the Eldon Square statue, but I hope you enjoyed seeing the rest of the city on a rather pleasant (if not quiet) afternoon :)
Thanks for watching!
@@LetsWalkUK It's really good cheers.
Probably you passing Eldon Square. How to get to St James Park for your next video 😂
Wowww, very beautiful places. Thanks for sharing. 🙏🙏
Newcastle really is a magnificent city! And thank you so much for watching - I'm really glad you enjoyed the video :)
Thanks for another wonderful, informative video.
Great city. Sad seeing all the businesses closed, many of which are closed permanently I've heard :(
It's a great city indeed, and I'm sure Newcastle will come back swinging in the future as it always does :)
Thank you so much for watching - I hope you enjoyed the video!
Really enjoyed that walkthrough video thanks
That was a great walk! Thank you very much! 🤗👍
I can't say I've ever been to Newcastle, but I am hoping to in the coming months so this video was really helpful. Great video, full of interesting information. Thanks for sharing!
Lived in Newcastle until I was 30 then moved to Greece. Lovely to see how much the city has changed, its always good to go back for a visit. Lana Kontella (Wheeldon) Hope to go back soon!
Really enjoyed this - made me feel even more proud to be a Geordie! However, I’d wished you’d mentioned Bessie Surtee’s house and/or the Cooperage which are original Tudor buildings with amazing history on the Quayside. Also the Guildhall where you ended your walk has a long and rich history. Finally, I agree with another comment regarding going the other way down Grey Street to include the Theatre Royal. I think there’s just too much to cram in!
Thank you so much! I'm really glad you enjoyed the video, you're more than right to be a very proud Geordie! As you say, there's just so much to see in Newcastle, so I'm very sorry to have missed out on a couple of things, but I'm very grateful that you've pointed them out here for us, it's always good to learn more and more about this great city :)
My Dad lived in BS house in 1976... on second floor. I was a child then and it was a very scary place to stay.. the room overlooking the street had a massive open fire place and was wood panelled.
Thanks for those extras, Esme! Yeah, would like to see a walk Vid of those too. But again so much to cram in. Can't wait to get up there. You can always make one, 😄hahaha
Would love to go back in time and visit Newcastle when the Tyne was chocker block with the old rigged up sailing ships, to listen to all the banter from the sailors and traders etc.
Ooh yes that would be quite the sight! A completely different world it would be to the sleek city that exists today, but that would be about as 'Geordie' an experience as you could find!
Thank you so much for watching - I really hope you enjoyed the video!
Very beautiful!! Full support#Big like Video😊Thank you for sharing👏
Thank you so much! I'm really glad you enjoyed the video :)
Great walk mate thanku
You're welcome! Thank you so much for watching - I'm really glad you enjoyed the video :)
Nicely done. I'm watching this from the comfort of my home outside Chicago IL USA. Thanks. We do have the Newcastle Brown ale sold in stores here. A very popular beer and a good one.
Geordie born a bred left in 1975 joins the RoyalNavy and sailed the world, return to Newcastle every now and then it’s changed for the better. Wife and kids love the city
All people born along the Tyne is a Geordie I come from South Shields and we're called Sanddancers. No one knows why but the name shields is taken from the fishermans huts in neolithic times. They were called "Shiels"
Thank you sir for this brilliant walk around Newcastle! Few weeks ago i saw an english detective serie: Vera, and apart of telled stories, i fall in love with they city! i'm architec and now know about her past and that magnificent architecture! Thanks a lot and greetings from Guatemala city, in the other side of the world...
A huge thank you for this video! I am hoping to be returning to my home town soon. There is no where like it the people the place is absolute magic.
I hope you get the chance to return soon too! Newcastle really is a magnificent city like no other - and as you mention the Geordies are some of the liveliest you'll find in the world :)
Thank you so much for watching - I'm really glad you enjoyed the video!
Fantastic video of newcastle absolutely 💯 why aye 👏
Thank you so much! I'm so glad you enjoyed the video - Newcastle is a spectacular city and one I love visiting again and again and again, there's always something new to discover :)
Thank you for watching and for your very kind words!
Just returned from Newcastle. Your video is fantastic.
Really enjoyed this tour... great channel 😉
Hi there, Thank you very much for such a beautiful video showcasing part of our beloved Newcastle and a nice look at Gateshead over the Tyne. I know people have said you should have shown this or that, but I was so impressed with how much you DID show in less than an hours walk was phenomenal and was very impressed with your detailed research. You obviously care for what you do and appreciated the respect shown for our beautiful and varied architecture and history. You could probably do a 6hr video and still not show everything but you gave people a taster of how beautiful, vibrant and welcoming it is up here! Nightlife is second to none with bars and nighclubs galore and restaurants covering cuisine from around the world. i think for the short time you had, you did a fantastic job. You are welcome back anytime! I hope you had a nice cold pint after that walk, maybe even a Bottle of Broon (what locals call Newcastle Brown Ale which is exported around the world.) take care and stay safe 🙂 xxx
Hi Ruth
Newcastle has some lovely buildings, makes you wonder how they built them back in the day with no technology
Indeed! The scale of some of its most impressive buildings - particularly the Tyne Bridge and Cathedral - are really spectacular, but Newcastle always seems to have been a city of engineers, so if there's anywhere they can build it - it's Newcastle :)
Thank you so much for watching - I really hope you enjoyed the video!
you can't have visited Rome....
Thank you it’s nice to feel like I’ve gotten out the house for a while.
Thank you so much! I'm really glad to hear you enjoyed the video :)
This is so cool miss Newcastle well done
Thank you so much! Newcastle is an amazing city as I'm sure you know well, so I'm really glad to hear that you enjoyed seeing it on screen while you're away :)
Thanks so much for a fab video!! Steph
You're welcome! And thank you so much for watching - I'm so glad you enjoyed the video - Newcastle is a really wonderful city :)
Such an interesting city,fully watched. Warm wishes from Pakistan 💗😍🤝
It really is! There are few places quite as historic and beautiful as Newcastle, and you could spend hours and hours walking around discovering the city, including the many things that I didn't quite manage to fit into this video :)
Thank you so much for watching - I'm really glad you enjoyed the video!
This is one of the best walk-a-logs of Newcastle that i have seen, great stuff. Perhaps just outside your scope is the Summerhill Park area, what an amazing gem of a neighbourhood like a little chunk of posh London plonked here.
Thank you so much! I'm really glad to hear you enjoyed the video - Newcastle is an incredible place and as you say there's certainly a lot more to discover than just the city centre! Maybe one day I'll visit Summerhill Park and make a video there if you'd like to see it :)
@@LetsWalkUK Yes sure, Newcastle is my home town but I am now living in Singapore since '93. I must say your videos are a great advert for 'where to live in the UK' each city/town featured the walk is so informative, it is the real deal.
@@lippywong4181 That's so kind of you to say! I do hope that you're enjoying these videos - there's certainly a lot more to our country than meets the eye :) And maybe one day I'll get the chance to make a video in shiny Singapore too!
Thank you for this one

Just walked down grays street to the key side and back yesterday on an anti vaccine march great day out there were a few hundred of us. Love this place and it’s people would never live anywhere els.
It's a spectacular city - and full of proud people, there are certainly few places more impressive than Newcastle :)
Thank you so much for watching - I really hope you enjoyed the video!
Im going to Northumbria Uni later this year I’ve always been a northern lad but this is the first time I’ll be living in the city. up the mags

Thank you so much for watching and especially for subscribing - it really helps me out!
@@LetsWalkUK The research that you put in is exceptional! I'm glad you mentioned The Mayfair too, I saw Nirvana amongst other legendary bands when I was waaaay underage 🙄 great walking tours, I'm loving this channel, thank you 👌🏻
I thought I would last about 5 mins but I stayed for 55.. Really interesting, well filmed and informative, you get around and I'll have to check out some of the other cities/towns you've covered..
