Chester draws groups for its races, its zoo and its Roman and medieval streets. Chester Zoo is one of the UK's most visited attractions, the Roodee hosts race meetings from spring to autumn, and the city walls and Rows bring a steady stream of tour groups. North Wales, Liverpool and Manchester are all close, so Chester also works well as a base.
The old city inside the walls has narrow streets with restricted access, so coaches drop off at agreed points outside the walls.

Race day parties often book a coach or large minibus, so everyone travels together. School trips to Chester Zoo usually travel by coach.
For hotel pickups inside the walls, an MPV or minibus can usually get closer than a coach.
The racing season runs from May to September, starting with the May Festival. Summer is the busiest time for the zoo and North Wales trips, and the Christmas market and Storyhouse shows bring visitors in December.
