We did a day out to Exeter to visit some unique spots in Exeter! We went to Underground Passages which is in the city centre. Exeter is the only city in the UK to have underground passages of this type. Guided tours have taken place here since the 1930s. The prices are reasonable. These passages are quite narrow and you will need to wear a hard hat. There a nice museum explaining the significance of the passages. Before the guided tours, you will be provided a safety briefing and a video about the passages. The tour in total will take 1hour. We really enjoyed the tour which was very informative. There's a fun little bit where you have the optional way of crawling through the smaller tunnels which was so fun as you get to crawl! A must do if you enjoy doing unusual stuff and learn history in a fun way.
Next, we took a 25mins drive to Canonteign falls which is the tallest waterfall in England. Reasonable proceed and you can easily spend hours as it has a lake, woodland walks and quite a few waterfalls (all man-made)! The setting was literally like walking through a rainforest in some places. Alongside the Canonteign Falls, there's also 2 other smaller waterfalls. There's also a nice cafe to quench your thirst after the many walks you do!
We then headed back to Exeter to visit Exeter Cathedral which was beautiful!
A good day out was had by everyone!
