Explore London’s old City on a private ghost walk through ancient lanes, shadowy passageways, and sites linked to reported hauntings.
About this tour
Step into London’s shadowed past on a private walking tour through the old City, where Roman, Viking, and medieval streets wind between Georgian passageways and former Victorian slums. Over 150 minutes, hear stories shaped by centuries of war, invasion, plague, fire, murder, and execution.
Your guide leads you through historic lanes and past locations associated with reported hauntings, with accounts spanning from the Middle Ages to the 21st century. The route focuses almost entirely on the original City of London and is designed to favor authentic history over implausible ghost stories. It also passes through quieter corners where you may encounter fewer tourists.
This London ghost walking tour offers a vivid way to explore the city’s layered history on foot. Meet in the main station concourse, just outside the Underground barriers by the Kindertransport statue. Book your private guided walk and discover the eerie stories tucked into old London’s alleyways.

How this score is calculated
This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 5.00 from 2 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.
How the score works and rating distribution in London
- 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: this tour scores 7.2. Top 42% in London means it ranks in the top 42% of tours in London by this score.
