  • City of London
    After greeting your guide at Temple Station for 2pm,  you'll follow in the footsteps of the Romans, who built the nearly 2000 year old wall still visible today. Wander through this tangle of hidden sights to stumble upon the 12th-century Temple Church, home to the Knights Templar. Fast-forward through history to discover the medieval Tower of London, home to the beefeaters. Learn about the great fire of 1666 that decimated the city at the Monument before marveling at the domed masterpiece, St. Paul’s Cathedral, rebuilt after the tragedy. You’ll see picturesque views along the Thames, the river spanned by the iconic 19th-century Tower Bridge and more modern Millennium Bridge. Your energetic guide will bring London’s long history to life as you weave through the skyscrapers that hide some of its best kept stories.
  • Temple Church
    After meeting your guide at Temple tube station, you will visit Temple Church, the 12th century place of worship for the Knights Templar. As the Knights once had dominion over this part of London, the church was constructed as their English headquarters before the organization’s dissolution in the 14th century.
  • Tower of London
    Next you will see the Tower of London, a historic castle that has played a prominent role in English history since it was founded at the end of 1066 as part of the Norman Conquests of England. Despite the Tower’s reputation as a place of torture and death, within its walls also lies the history of a royal palace and a powerful fortress.
  • The Monument to the Great Fire of London
    During your tour you will also visit the Monument to the Great Fire of London, a monument built between 1671 and 1677 to commemorate the Great Fire of London and to celebrate the rebuilding of the City.
  • St. Paul's Cathedral
    You will also explore the renowned St Paul’s Cathedral, an Anglican cathedral sitting on Ludgate Hill, the highest point of the City of London. It is one of the most recognisable sights of London whose dome has dominated the skyline for over 300 years.
  • Thames River
    During your tour you will also stroll along the banks of the River Thames and will be able to enjoy the stunning views of the City of London.
  • Tower Bridge
    Along the River Thames you will see Tower Bridge, one of London’s most famous bridges built between 1886 and 1894, and the more modern Millennium Bridge, a steel suspension bridge which links Bankside with the City of London.
