About Walking Tours in London
Walking tours are the most intimate way to experience London. With an expert local guide leading the way, you will discover stories, shortcuts, and details that even long-time residents do not know. The pace is relaxed, the groups are small, and the experience is far richer than any guidebook can offer.
London's walking tours cover an incredible range of themes. The Jack the Ripper tour is the most famous, taking you through the dark streets of Whitechapel where the infamous murders took place in 1888. Ghost tours explore haunted churchyards and plague pits. The Churchill War Rooms tour combines a Westminster walking tour with a visit to the underground bunker where WW2 was directed.
Evening walking tours are particularly atmospheric. As daylight fades and the streetlights come on, London takes on a completely different character. The Jack the Ripper and ghost tours are designed specifically for the evening, using the darkness and shadows to heighten the experience.
