About this tour

Focusing on the bizarre, we will go in search of the lady who travelled by zebras, the doctor who fell in love with laxatives, the prime minister who was a sun god, and hear about the most mad ceremonies continuing to this day.

Certainly a tour off the tourist trail, we’ll focus on the old alleyways in one of the most atmospheric and unknown parts of central London, passing by hidden pubs and church yards, keeping an eye on the unexpected as we roam.

Can I book a private tour?

Sure! Our guides tend to be booked quite far in advance – especially during peak times – but please email info@funlondontours.com with your request. We tend to have more availability on shorter private tours of 1.5 – 2 hours in length. As of January 2023, prices start at £250.

Are your tours suitable for people with limited mobility or wheelchair users?

Our tours can be adapted to suit wheelchair users or those with limited mobility – just let us know ahead of time so the guide can prepare a suitable alternative step-free route.

The only exception is our Changing the Guard tour, which requires good mobility as we march alongside the guards and we cannot avoid steps.
