Overview

I'm not being hyperbolic when I say that London has some of THE most iconic buildings in the world. In this tour, we'll have a merry jaunt around the Westminster area, as I tell you all about the incredible (and often violent/stupid) histories behind all of them! Or, at least, as many as I can. We'll be looking at -

Buckingham Palace - The SECOND favourite home of Her Majesty, the Queen!
The Houses of Parliament - Along with the famous clock tower, which isn't actually called Big Ben!
Trafalgar Square - Hear the story about how a chap with one eye and one arm became one of our greatest heroes!
Amazing statues - Hear the (frequently gruesome) stories of some of the key features of British history!
Downing Street - The home of whoever happens to be Prime Minister this week!
Many more - More, you say? But of course there is! Damn near every building in this part of town has history coming out of every window!

But how much do I charge for this crash-course in London history? Absolutely nothing. I mean, if you WANT to pop some drink money my way at the end, well, I won't complain, but honestly, I just enjoy showing visitors to our wonderful city around!

Nelson's Column, Trafalgar Square

On arrival

This tour starts at Nelson's Column, in Trafalgar Square. The nearest station is Charing Cross. You can't miss the column itself - big building with a seafaring looking chap on top. I'll be the guide dressed up in some version of Victorian regalia - possible a top hat, or a bowler, depending on what I feel like that day!

Free Cancellation

Free Cancellation up to 24 hours before the activity starts. Late cancellation or your non-arrival is not refundable.
