Absolutely fantastic. We listened to the expert guide, Mike L. He was brilliant, I have ADD but he managed to keep my attention all the way through, his enthusiasm is contagious. I can't remember the name of the lady we bought our tickets from, but she was very lovely and helpful. The castle itself is well worth a visit, and I do recommend the wall walk too. We had a snack in the cafe, which is reasonably priced, I recommend the fruit bread in there. We nipped to the gift shop after, we spoke to Jan who told us about the swords we were interested in (and there history). Definitely worth paying the £16 entry fee.

You can walk the castle wall, visit the interior and prison and then view one of the four copies of the Magna Carta. The castle is well maintained and the pre recorded tour is well done as you stop at key spots along the way to get the history of the castle and the town. Well worth a visit.

This has been a great day out. Firstly we were met by volunteer Pat. She was cheerful and extremely helpful, giving us lots of tips on the best way to see the castle. Viewing the prison first, then the Magna Carta timed perfectly to go onto the guided tour. Our guides were Helen an Mal. Two witty and informative people, who’s military backgrounds gave us a fascinating insight into the defence of the castle and the horrors of being in the “killing zone” a great day out. Will definitely come again.

Drove into Lincoln on a whim without much planning. Visited Lincoln Castle, a major medieval castle constructed during the late 11th century by William the Conqueror on the site of a pre-existing Roman fortress and is currently one of only four surviving exemplars of the Magna Carta of 1215. Worth a visit.

Seems a little steep for the entrance fee but worth it, worth taking the audio commentary option for the wall walk but you have to keep your eyes peeled for the corresponding numbers. I am sure the views would be lovely but we went on a wet October afternoon with poor visibility ! The Victorian Prison is interesting made all the better by the Gaoler and Prisoner who like play their parts well. Also good to shelter from the rain !

! We visited today Saturday as a family of 4. Two adults and 2 boys aged 10 and 11. We spent a good 2 hours+ here. Anthony was a very interesting tour guide for an hour, telling us the history of the castle from 1068 to present day. The boys listened and kept interested throughout the hour which is impressive! Tales of battles and hangings, and how the castle developed construction wise over the years. We then walked around the castle walls which provide great views of the cathedral and city. We visited the prison, brought to life by the interesting volunteers. A quick view of the Magna Carta and film. Definitely a must see if visiting Lincoln. We liked looking at the roaring dragon with smoke too!

Just enjoyed a lovely morning at Lincoln castle. Firstly we had a tour of castle with our tour guide Les who was informative and interesting. Then a coffee break in their reasonable price cafe. Then we visited prison and then magna carta exhibit both worth visiting. All-in all a very good way to spend a morning

We had an amazing day at Lincoln Castle. The Magna Carta is incredible to see, and the display and film gives very helpful context. We had an entertaining and informative tour by Ken, an excellent tour guide who really knows his stuff! Great service at the cafe too.

What a lovely place to visit. So much history! We did the guided tour and our guide Ken Moore was truly fantastic, his knowledge was way better than his jokes 😂😂 . Seriously he was brilliant and made our tour fly by. We were so lucky to have a wonderful sunny day which really made the wall walk a great experience.

Our first visit to Lincoln city, so we thought we would take a tour of the castle and we were not disappointed. The whole experience was made so much more enjoyable by our guide, Ken - he was just brilliant. His knowledge of the history of the castle and Lincoln city was incredible and the way it was imparted to us with such passion and humour was both interesting and entertaining. Ken should be on stage! Definitely coming back.
