Tour description

Legend has it that in 2024 a Southern Pirate arrived on the banks of the Thames to become a privateer.

Will he get it?


From Gadir to South London.

In medieval times it was the worst part of the city, without law and order, which led to the influx of pirates...

But we are in 2024 and we will begin by crossing south on the most famous bridge in London to see that any time in the past was not better...

Your best photos start at Tower Bridge

This architectural masterpiece was the last great building of the Victorian era, as Queen Victoria passed away 4 years later. Anecdotes, details and data on the banks of the Thames River with the most ecological town hall in the world or the most important warship of the Second World War.


We follow the journey of the Golden Hinde

 

In 1577, Queen Elizabeth partly sponsored Sir Francis Drake as leader of an expedition that intended to pass through South America through the Strait of Magellan. I better tell you directly... Don't miss a single detail of the replica of a pirate turned privateer.

.

Of pints. The Anchor Tavern


This pub is the only survivor of the riverside inns that existed here in Shakespeare's time, when this district was at the heart of the theater district and the Thames was the main gateway to London.

To be or not To Be and Shakespeare's Globe

 

The Globe Theater was a theater in London associated with William Shakespeare built in 1599 by the Lord Chamberlain's Men theater company. Romeo and Juliet surely sounds familiar to you.

We finished at the Tate Modern, a former power station originally designed by Sir Giles Gilbert Scott, opposite St Paul's Cathedral, on the other side of the river.

Don't forget that the best memories are engraved in the heart, but if you can spare good snapshots, go up to the cafeteria of this contemporary museum for free to enjoy incredible views...


The Pirate Guachisnai will give you the most precious loot, a nice souvenir from the most "illegal" London
