Overview
Exeter Cathedral holds the longest unbroken stretch of Gothic vaulting anywhere in the world, a detail that draws architecture and history groups from well beyond Devon, and it sits under a ten-minute walk from the Historic Quayside, where old warehouses now house pubs and independent shops along the river. We arrange coach and minibus hire for school groups visiting the cathedral and the Royal Albert Memorial Museum, which covers 2,000 years of the city's history under one roof, as well as corporate teams and family parties touring the Quayside and the city's Roman walls and underground passages. Exeter functions as the main gateway to Devon and Cornwall for groups heading further south-west, sitting around 170-200 miles from London, roughly a three-and-a-half hour drive. The city is close to Exmouth, Torquay and Plymouth for onward coastal trips. Drivers know the routes linking the cathedral quarter to the Quayside, useful given the steep drop between the two.
