Overview
On this tour we will start next to the majestic St. Paul's Cathedral and cross to the south of the river, away from the authority of the City to discover the more rebellious, cultural and historical side of London: Southwark.
We will walk over iconic bridges, talk about Shakespeare and Elizabethan theater, and visit old taverns where sailors, actors and criminals shared stories of shipwrecks and conspiracies.
We will visit one of the oldest prisons in the city, cemeteries that narrate the evolution of London and streets that have been the scene of epidemics, fires and great transformations.
A walk full of curiosities, legends and corners with character that connect the past with the present... and you will understand why it was one of the favorite walks of Queen Elizabeth II.
