History of London Tours (bespoke)
Learn about London and the incredible people who shaped the City and developed it's economy, residences and cultural spaces. After a discussion with you about what your interests are, we can develop a bespoke immersive experience that could last from one hour to the whole day and could involve anything from a walking tour through one of London's oldest markets to learn about the history of the UK and the history of food; to a visit to the British palaces to uncover Royal secrets. It could also include a walking tour around East London, walking in the footsteps of detectives on the hunt for Jack the Ripper, or learning about the traits and quirks of Winston Churchill and how he and other British politicians helped end the Second World War whilst visiting the Churchill Rooms. London is rich in history and stories and this bespoke tour can be adapted for all ages and made accessible to all abilities. History of London Experiences A Shakespeare fan? We can organise a leading BBC actor to take you around The Globe Theatre and tell you about the wonderful history of what 16th century Britain was like. Love tennis? Why not play on grass courts with an instructor who played at Wimbledon. We can also organise a picnic with strawberries and cream and champagne. Travelling with children? How about a history of witches and wizards in London with a magician followed by a skip the queues trip to the Harry Potter Studio. Want to learn more about British cuisine? We can take you on a bespoke tasting tour that encompasses British culinary inventions such as hot chocolate, fish and chips, scones and jellied eel. We can also organise a cooking class or a chance to do a spot of fishing. Some other ideas include: getting a suit fitted in Saville Row, choosing a hat at a milliners in St James, cycling through Kensington Park Gardens, seeing London by boat on the Thames whilst drinking British organic wines; and learning about British courtly society, the evolution of green spaces in the City, Charles Dickens, Roald Dahl, how the Romans cultivated wine in the UK, and the guilds in the City. |
