Discover Newmarket will later this year launch two new tours. “On The Trail of Dick Francis” will take in many of the spots in the town that the late former champion steeplechase jockey used as plots in his acclaimed novels. “Newmarket's Racing Royalty” reveals the town's royal heritage. Visitors on the tour will hear stories about the royals who have frequented Newmarket down the centuries and call by places with royal connections.
The Dick Francis tours are available on Aug. 6, Oct. 1, Nov. 5 and Dec. 3, and the Royal tour Sept. 3, Oct. 22, Nov. 19 and Dec. 17. Each costs £25 per person.
