Free Walking Tour London was created to show you the best of London in a more cost-effective way. Our guides are experts in history and London in general and are only too happy to recommend ways to spend your time in the U.K. capital. Our tours work on a pay-what-you-like basis whereby you can enjoy a tour with us, and then at the end of the tour, you can show your appreciation to our guides.
In this tour of the City of London you will get to know the oldest part of London, also known as the old Roman city or"Londinium". In addition to being the oldest area of the city, it also has some of the city's most modern and sophisticated buildings. You will hear about how this area has been affected by plague, fire and the London Blitz during the Second World War, and why this is now one of the most modern and important parts of London.
However, our route goes one step furthe and explores the other side of the River Thames (Southbank). Passing by places like the Tate Modern, and its collection of modern art, the Globe Theatre, where Shakespeare developed his plays and other places like the Southwark Cathedral, the English galleon the Golden Hind or the Clink Prison, let yourself be surprised and get involved in the incredible history of the place. To finish the tour, we will end the route between the Tower of London, with its spooky and interesting stories and the Tower Bridge, always surprising and majestic for the visitor.
- Our meeting point will be the Queen Anne Statue, opposite St. Paul's Cathedral, and ends at the famous Tower Bridge!
By Queen Anne Statue, in front of St. Paul's Cathedral. Look for the 'Free Walking Tour London' Purple Umbrellas or Flags.
Free tours do not have a set price, instead, each person gives the guru at the end of the tour the amount that he or she considers appropriate (these usually range from €10 to $50 depending on satisfaction with the tour).
