About this tour
Follow London’s story through streets where Roman temples, medieval lanes, and the marks of the Great Fire sit alongside the city’s financial heart. This self-guided London walking tour begins outside the Tower of London and leads toward St Paul’s Cathedral, with audio, maps, and GPS directions available in the app.
Wander past the open-air ruins of St Dunstan in the East, then continue along the riverfront by the Custom House, where Chaucer once worked. Thread through historic alleys and old pubs to Bank Junction, home to the Bank of England, the Royal Exchange, and Mansion House. Along the way, see the Monument to the Great Fire and the London Mithraeum, a Roman temple buried beneath the streets. The route continues along Lombard Street, once known for the city’s first coffee houses, before ending in a garden beside Admiral Arthur Phillip’s statue, with Wren’s St Paul’s rising ahead.

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.
