About this tour

Discover the layers of the city on a London Anglo-Saxon and Roman walking tour that brings nearly 2,000 years of history into view. Led by an experienced history teacher, this two-hour walk reveals ancient sites and lesser-known stories tucked among the streets of modern London.

Explore Roman walls, forgotten Anglo-Saxon churches, the mysterious London Stone, medieval lanes, and the City’s oldest church. Hear tales of emperors, saints, rebels, and merchants as you pass famous sights such as the Tower of London, Tower Bridge, the Monument, St. Paul’s Cathedral, and the Old Bailey, viewed from outside. A short ride on a public bus along Cannon Street connects part of the route; the fare is paid separately when boarding with a contactless card. The walk begins near the Tower of London and ends in Holborn, close to the historic Ye Olde Mitre pub.

How this score is calculated

This tour has no TourTruth score yet: Viator doesn't show a usable rating for it. It gets a score as soon as a provider lists one.

How the score works
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10. Tours without a usable provider rating are not scored.
