Chance to become one of Exeter’s much-loved Red Coats

Ever fancied becoming one of Exeter’s famous Red Coat guides? If so, the City Council is preparing to recruit for its award-winning Red Coat Guided Tours and training will take place this Winter.

The tours are a free service provided by Exeter City Council. They enable visitors to enjoy Exeter’s rich history with a guided tour of the city. In 2019 the Tours received the Queen’s Award for Voluntary Service, and this year they were awarded a Travellers’ Choice Award from Tripadvisor.

Guided walking tours operate daily with a wide variety of subjects charting the history of the great city of Exeter. Knowledgeable Red Coat guides bring history to life with guided tours of the city.    

People can choose from a variety of tours including Exeter Old & New, Medieval Exeter, Ghosts & Legends and Exeter’s Historic Quayside. There’s also Tudor Exeter, Exeter’s City Wall, Forgotten Exeter, Royalty in Exeter, and lots more.  

Anyone interested in becoming a Red Coat is asked to email redcoat.admin@exeter.gov.uk
