All about perennialtouring…

My name is Heather McFall and I’m the person behind perennialtouring. I am a Northumbria Blue Badge Tourist Guide, a Durham City Guide and an accredited Durham Cathedral Guide. With many years experience in the tourism industry both here and worldwide, allow me to show you the best on offer in this beautiful region .

In addition I’m also a qualified horticulturalist, which I find dovetails with my work as a tourist guide, allowing me to offer bespoke gardening tours to clients. If I’m not out guiding or sharing my horticultural skills with clients, you will find me working on my own garden. MORE
