Overview

Covent Garden is much more than posh shopping boutiques and fancy restaurants. In fact, it’s home to some of the craziest and most colourful character’s in London’s history. Wander through the centuries with us to discover how this area evolved from Westminster Abbey’s vegetable garden and became a hustling and bustling market, a theatre district, a centre of vice and depravation and even a slum that would inspire none other than Charles Dickens. Join us to discover central London’s most fascinating district!

**DISCLAIMER: Children are welcome on this tour, but please be aware that we cover topics including alcohol and the sex trade, so parental discretion is advised.
