Roman Ruins to Blitz Bombings: A Walking Tour of London's Fiery History
Travel through two thousand years of history, meeting Romans, kings, Charles Dickens, Anne Boleyn's ghost, and Queen Boudica (and hear how she's connected to Harry Potter!)
On our walking tour we'll travel across the City of London, the ancient heart of the capital. We'll learn about the City's founding two thousand years ago and hear about its survival through fire and war, discover where you can still see Roman ruins to this day, hear about the Tower of London's bloody past, and find out the easiest way to tunnel into the Bank of England's vaults!
The guided walking tour begins outside Tower Hill Station exit, ends near to Blackfriars Station, and will take around two hours. Total distance is about two and a half miles.
Ticket sales will be limited to fifteen attendees, to ensure maximum enjoyment for everybody on the tour.
