HOW DOES IT WORK?
Most of my tourists tell me how much time they have in London and what their interests are, and I prepare an optimized walking tour for them around the places that interest them the most.
I can also tailor a tour based on your interests.
Alternatively, you can choose from one of my most popular walks, with the full list provided below.
LONDON FOR BEGINNERS-part 1 (3h)
During this walk, you’ll discover the most fascinating stories associated with the 6 main attractions of London located in the Westminster district (Buckingham Palace, London Eye, Big Ben, Westminster Abbey, 10 Downing Street, and Scotland Yard), as well as see one of the royal parks, a 300-meter graffiti tunnel, and film sculptures at Leicester Square.
LONDON FOR BEGINNERS-part 2 (3h)
During this walk, you’ll discover the most fascinating stories associated with the 8 main attractions of London located in the oldest parts of the city (City & London Bridge). St. Paul’s Cathedral, Millennium Bridge, Tate Modern, Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre, The Shard, London Bridge, Tower Bridge, the Tower of London, and a lot more!
A walking tour around Greenwich! (1,5h)
See the place where the royal family used to go for centuries to rest from the crowded (and dirty!) London, which has been listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1997! See the streets where outstanding scientists, painters, architects, controversial kings, and even the Tsar of Russia, Peter The Great, walked! Learn where the Prime Meridian runs, how the fastest ship in the world looked before the invention of the engine, how to check the time using a red ball, and where you can find a monument to a dead parrot!
Magic London ! (3h)
See the real-life Diagon Alley, the maybe-or-maybe-not streets that inspired J.K. Rowling, the London bridge spectacularly destroyed by Death Eaters, and the world’s most magical train platform—King’s Cross, of course. Snap a photo with Harry himself (well… his statue) and discover how fiction blends with fact in London’s twisty little alleys.
Wands not required, curiosity essential!
Notting Hill walking tour (2h)
Notting Hill Carnival, Julia Roberts, Hugh Grant, Banksy, an infamous serial killer whose case helped end capital punishment in the UK, and the worst landlord in London – a 2-hour walk through the not-so-obvious history of the city’s most Instagrammable neighbourhood!
East End with a touch of Shakespeare and Jack the Ripper – a walk around Brick Lane! (2,5h)
A 2.5-hour walk around the district of London made famous at the end of the 19th century by the infamous Jack the Ripper. In addition to the iconic Brick Lane street, you will also see the place where the play ‘Romeo and Juliet’ was first performed (and it was not the Globe Theatre!), the largest former brewery in London, as well as a building where all the world’s biggest religions were practiced!
The Beatles London Walking Tour! (3h)
Although John, Paul, George, and Ringo took their first steps on the music scenes in Liverpool (United Kingdom) and Hamburg (Germany), it was London that became their home during their tumultuous seven-year reign atop the global charts in the 1960s.
Join me for a walk through London, which will take you through several iconic Beatles-related locations.
Abbey Road Studios, the pedestrian crossing from the band’s iconic cover, the place where Beatlemania began, the rooftop where they played their final concert, and much more!
During this walk, we will take a short subway journey from Abbey Road to central London.
Agatha Christie Walking Tour of London!! (2h)
A 2-hour walk that will allow you to look at London through the prism of the inspiring and full-of-interesting-twists life of one of the best-selling authors of all time, the undisputed Queen of Crime, Agatha Christie. During the walk, you will learn how and why 4-year-old Agatha taught herself to read, where she gained her knowledge of poisons, why her first book was almost her last, and why in 1962, in an exclusive 5-star hotel in London, you could see a half-ton mouse trap!
