The City of London: Hidden and visible history
London
3 hours
The City of London refers to a tiny part of this large metropolis, which is a financial centre and a historical core of it. Although it looks like the most modern part of London with a cluster of skyscrapers, it hides 2000 years of history, peculiar ceremonies and a key to London's success and the power of the British economy. From St Paul's Cathedral - an architectural wonder and a symbol of London's resilience through windy streets of the City to the Tower of London - formidable fortress.

The Sex Industry and the Stage in Georgian London
London
2 hours 30 min
After the Puritan Protectorate Londoners went wild. The sex industry became huge and public and London sex-capital of Europe. The walk starts with theatres at a time when all actresses were considered prostitutes and the stage a place for clients to find them. We see where street-walkers and bawdy houses were linked with playhouses, hear about bawdy-house keepers and women who worked in them, homosexual Molly Houses, Jelly Houses, Coffee Houses and Bagnios. Links with criminals are everywhere.
