Ce que tu feras
Join us for a private walking tour through the City of London, where Romans collide with bankers and skyscrapers rub shoulders with medieval churches. Your guide will walk you through layers of history shaped by conquest, commerce, catastrophe and resilience, sharing stories of Romans, Vikings, Normans, medieval merchants and wartime Londoners along the way.
As a private tour, your guide is dedicated entirely to your group, so you can ask as many questions as you like, slow down at the spots that interest you most, and shape the tour around what your group wants to see. Our guides bring the hidden history of the Square Mile to life, sharing stories not just of kings and conquerors but of the ordinary Londoners whose lives shaped the City we see today.
Along the route you will see the Tower of London, cross Tower Bridge, stand at the foot of the Monument to the Great Fire, and take in the Royal Exchange, the Bank of England and St Paul's Cathedral. From the Great Fire to the Blitz, from global trade to secret ceremonies and strange City traditions, this tour reveals the quirks, power and independence of London's oldest district.
This private tour is ideal for history lovers, first time visitors, and anyone who wants a deeper look at the City without sharing their guide with strangers.
