Take a trip back to Blitz-era Westminster on a walking tour with a local expert guide, available as a shared group or a private booking. This is the district that endured the worst of the bombing and where the crucial wartime decisions were made, and your guide walks you through the streets where it happened. You hear how the capital coped night after night, how Winston Churchill led from here, and what the war did to the buildings and the people around Whitehall and Parliament. The route passes the entrance to the Churchill War Rooms and covers their story, though entry is not included. It is a moving and fascinating walk that brings wartime London vividly to life.
