Description

Uncover a hidden side of London on a private walking tour through the city's secret gardens and historic ruins. This unique experience takes you to tranquil green spaces and centuries-old churchyards, many of which even locals have yet to discover, offering a peaceful escape from the city's bustle.

Your journey begins beneath the iconic architecture of St Paul's Cathedral, where your expert guide leads you through beautifully landscaped gardens and serene courtyards. Along the way, you'll encounter lush spaces redeveloped in recent years, water features, and gardens inspired by Roman and Italian heritage, each with its own fascinating story.

Explore secluded spots dedicated to famous figures like Samuel Pepys and Lord Mayors of London, as well as gardens with poignant memorials and ties to Shakespeare and Churchill. You'll visit ancient ruins, stand atop a Roman amphitheatre, and admire a Victorian market built on Roman foundations, all while soaking in the city's rich history.

This private tour lasts approximately three hours and is available in English for groups of up to 15 people. Your experience includes hotel pickup from any central London location, a professional local guide, and the flexibility to start your adventure at a time that avoids the morning rush. The tour is accessible for wheelchairs and strollers, and service animals are welcome.

Transportation to the starting point is not included, but your guide can meet you at your hotel or at St Paul's Cathedral. Dress smart casual and prepare for a moderate walk through quiet, safe locations. Secure your spot now and discover the secret gardens of London before they become the city's worst-kept secret!

We have earmarked this tour as especially safe during the Coronavirus outbreak due to generally quiet places that we visit where social distancing is generally not a problem. All of our tours are private so it is just you/your family and your guide.  To make it easier and safer for all concerned we would suggest starting this tour a little later than the usual time, perhaps around 10.30-11am which allows us all to miss rush-hour. We are happy to still come to your hotel to meet you but for the moment we would suggest meeting us at the tour starting point.  This allows you to arrive by a taxi or uber rather than public transport. Please feel free to wear masks throughout or at times during the tour.  Your guide will also have a mask with them.
