Walk from the City of London to Westminster, exploring historic pubs and hearing vivid tales of London’s past with a retired detective.
Trace 2,000 years of London history on a private walk through the city’s storied streets and pubs. Led by an English-speaking retired Metropolitan Police detective, this London historic pub walk connects the City of London with Westminster through tales of fire, crime, and changing neighborhoods.
Begin at the Black Friar, an Art Nouveau landmark, then hear about the Great Fire of London and the Blitz. At St Bride’s Church, discover treasures in the crypt and stories of Fleet Street’s once-mighty newspaper industry. Stop at Ye Old Cheshire Cheese, a pub little changed over the centuries, and learn about a famously celebrated parrot. In the Temple, visit two Inns of Court and hear the curious connection between a local chambers and Jack the Ripper. Continue past more distinctive pubs and the site associated with the Demon Barber of Fleet Street before finishing at The Seven Stars.
The tour lasts 210 minutes and is priced for a private group of 1–20 people. Follow London’s past through places where its stories still feel close, and book your London historic pub walk for a memorable city stroll.
