About this tour

During the tour we will encourage you to pay special heed to the parts of London we usually rush past. Among the highlights will be a search for one of Soho’s infamous Noses, a chance to stand on the Duke of Wellington’s Horse Block, and a chance to look into the bowels of a street to discover an ancient street sign.

The devil is in the detail as they say. So if you love a guided walk around London which is akin to a historical treasure hunt, then you’ll be in your element!

FAQ

Can I book a private tour?

Sure! Our guides tend to be booked quite far in advance, especially during peak times, so please give us as much notice as you can. We tend to have more availability on shorter private tours of 1.5 to 2 hours in length. You can see what is available and send us your dates on our private tours page, or email info@funlondontours.com with your request. Prices start at £250 per group, and vary with the tour and the size of your group.

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.

 Verified Great tour guide
Our tour guide was fantastic and very knowledgeable. I was hoping to get a closer look at the changing of the guard, but it was very crowded.

 Verified So glad we went on this tour.
Tour guide Pepe was very instructive and entertaining throughout the walk from Piccadilly Circus to Buckingham Palace, here and there sharing lesser known stories on famous and ordinary people tied to London and to the Palace histories. Such a nice time.
