Highlights
You tour guide will be Loona who has guided hundreds of people for over 16 years around his birthplace London and was an official British Museum tour guide.
He has advised for and made appearances on TV history shows like Urban Secrets (Sky TV), the Hairy Builder (BBC2) and The Repair Shop (BBC1) and holds a Masters degree in economics from the University of Cambridge.
His tours are fun and accessible, filled with interesting stories all researched, with pictures to see to really make the tour come to life.
Group sizes are small (max 12 people) so you can ask questions about the tour or about London in general.
He writes all his own tours so get ready for some new stuff! No previous knowledge of London is assumed and there'll be time for questions and conversation.
It's a very personalised tour.
Itinerary
30 Newgate St
A fascinating walk between two of London’s most famous landmarks by the banks of the River Thames. Here's a short Youtube video about this tour: https://youtu.be/WnyKf8iNnhg Join this great Let's Discover London walk ... we start at the the iconic St Paul’s Cathedral and hear stories of the physical and theological challenges of Wren's design and walk past a gate to the city which once had spiked heads of traitors. We learn the sad story of Queen Anne and her grand legacy, see the College of Arms, the ‘wobbly bridge’, the power station that became a famous gallery, the site of Shakespeare’s original Globe theatre, cruel bear baiting, tales of the foul-mouthed ferrymen, tales of fire and ice and all the naughty things that happened at Bankside. We then pass the ruins of the Bishop of Winchester's Palace, a ship that went round the world 500 years ago, Southwark Cathedral and finally London Bridge where I'll leave you at Borough Market for a spot of lunch or a riverside drink.
