Discovery Tours

Come on Board

Why choose to spend an hour of your time with Discovery Tours?. The answer is easy, because we promise that you will be entertained in a unique and exciting way. You will have an experience you are not likely to have had before and not want to forget for a long time to come. In an action packed hour Discovery Tours will promote this dynamic and vibrant city with its ever changing face and relive its colourful historical past.

From the first moment you step on our tour bus you’ll begin to soak up the atmosphere of the past. With the aid of technology you’ll hear the planes flying over head dropping their devastating bombs, obliterating the city below, during the Blitz of 1941. With the help of our guides the Pearce sister’s, three colourful characters from the 1940’s, who have been brought to life to help transport you back in time, you’ll have the pleasure of meeting Jane, Maud or Liz.

The sisters will lead you every step of the way, supported throughout the tour by Charlie, a well to do Victorian gentlemen harbouring a wicked sense of humour. He has been created by the wonders of modern technology. Charlie recreates Plymouth's historical architecture sadly no longer with us today, either because of the blitz or the ravages of time. The interaction between the sisters, Charlie and yourself will lead you to a time gone by, creating an atmosphere that brings the past alive, firing the imaginations of old and young alike.

Not only will Discovery Tours give you the opportunity to experience the sights and sounds of yesteryear, but also to help complete the experience you’ll be given the opportunity to touch and try on a genuine World War II artefacts.
