Important Information

Our tour takes place in Central London which has no shortage of refreshment and relief establishments. Nonetheless, I suggest that everyone should bring water and any snacks they might need to keep them going for up to three hours, and they should wear comfortable clothes - especially shoes.

As we want to see the guard change ceremonies that are timed with military precision we need to start on time at 10.00 am in Covent Garden, or a little earlier at your Central London hotel

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.

Hidden History: exploring the layers of London (2.5 hrs)

London
2 hours 30 min

Hundreds of years of fascinating history have occurred within the Square Mile: but you need to know where to look to find the traces and understand the story. The City was uninhabited after the Romans, devastated by the Great Fire and the Blitz and heavily rebuilt by the Victorians, so this can be challenging: this walk aims to guide you through the history and help you put together the pieces and the layers so you understand the full story.
