Overview

This is an amazing and completely unique tour where you'll be encouraged to notice the small details hidden along the alleyways and courtyards of the ancient city of London.

Your expert guide will take you to some of the more atmospheric locations in London, where you'll discover old pubs and even older churches, market places and medieval and even roman remains.

30 St Mary Axe (The Gherkin)

Stand among the forest of iconic skyscrapers in the heart of the financial district. Dwarfing the 16th century church in their midst, the view of the Gherkin, Cheesegrater, Walkie Talkie, Scalpel and Lloyds Building is simply breathtaking.

This 19th century architectural masterpiece is simply wonderful. Adorned with dragons and shields of St George, it has been the location of a market place for nearly two thousand years! Not surprisingly it was used by film makers for the first Harry Potter movie...

Fun tour to see the the "forgotten" places

Corinne_L, 07-07-2022

Great tour! If you want to see the parts of the city that many people, including Londoners, don't know, take this tour! Lots of great historical information with fun trivia. The guide is friendly, knowledgeable, and gives a great tour. We all really enjoyed it

Easy walking, interesting places

Matt is an excellent guide. From meeting up outside Canon Street tube station on a Sunday afternoon, to saying goodbye at St Dunstans he was knowledgeable, informative and fun. A lovely mixed group of people, who mixed and chatted as we discovered alleys in het square mile that you may have walked past every day.

Fun and informative .

Really interesting and well presented by Matt. Found out stuff I never knew about London.
Sunday is a good day for the tour as the area is much quieter than midweek.

Some of London's secrets revealed.

My son and I really enjoyed Matt's informative and amusing commentary on this tour, which took us to places which we would otherwise never have known existed. There was a good mix of new and old buildings and environments included. Matt clearly loves London and sharing his passion with his guests. Great way to spend an hour and a half. Will almost certainly book another tour in future.
