Yderligere oplysninger
- Travelers should have a moderate physical fitness level
- We have earmarked this tour as especially safe during the Coronavirus outbreak due to generally quiet places that we visit where social distancing is generally not a problem. All of our tours are private so it is just you/your family and your guide. To make it easier and safer for all concerned we would suggest starting this tour a little later than the usual time, perhaps around 10.30-11am which allows us all to miss rush-hour. We are happy to still come to your hotel to meet you but for the moment we would suggest meeting us at the tour starting point. This allows you to arrive by a taxi or uber rather than public transport. Please feel free to wear masks throughout or at times during the tour. Your guide will also have a mask with them.
- This is a private tour/activity. Only your group will participate

Her er udgangspunktet
St. Paul's Cathedral
Marvel at the beautiful cathedral of the City of London, the latest in the long time of holy sanctuaries to be built here since before the Roman times.
Old Bailey
The Oldest Court in the Western World and famous for its high profile cases that still are held here today.
The Viaduct Tavern
This old pub infamously has jail cells beneath it where people would await their fate... normally being publicly executed just outside as highlighted in the works of Charles Dickens.
WIlliam Wallace Memorial
See the place where William Wallace of Braveheart fame died, along with many others through the ages.
Church of St. Bartholomew the Great
We will explore the ancient church, often used in movies and built by a dying crusader who had had a vision of a Saint in the Holy Lands. We will also visit nearby sites associated with the same encounter.
The Charterhouse
Charterhouse Square, one of the largest plague pits before entering Charterhouse chapel and amongst other things seeing a recently discovered skeleton of a victim of the Black Death (Plague).
The Museum of the Order of St John
We will see the gatehouse belonging to the Knights of St John Crusaders and have a quick look inside at their collection of weapons and armour.
The Crown Tavern
Marx Memorial Library
The communist heritage of Clerkenwell continues with this working institute.
Ely Place
Lincoln's Inn
The largest square in London though rarely visited by tourists which is a shame as it is a beautiful, ancient and tranquil square with great halls, a wonderful chapel and well tended gardens. Home to one of the great Inns of Court.
Royal Courts of Justice
We will finish at the Royal Courts of Justice, one of the great courts which stands at the end of famous old Fleet Street on the borders of the City of London and the City of Westminster.
