Overview
A journey from 'Wall to Wall' - this is London like you have never seen it before.
Step back nearly two thousand years as you explore the hidden layers of the ancient Roman city that still lies beneath the bustling streets of modern London. From the awe-inspiring dome of St Paul’s Cathedral to the remains of a Roman amphitheatre hidden beneath a modern art gallery, every stop on this tour peels back another layer of London’s extraordinary past.
You’ll encounter the charming statue of Hodge the Cat, wander past the shell of a church left open to the sky after the Blitz - haunting and beautiful in its resilience - and step inside the atmospheric courtyard where London’s oldest pub has served pints for centuries. Throughout, your guide will bring history to life with stories of emperors, merchants, martyrs, and mischief-makers who once walked these same streets.
