What we’re about

Follow in the footsteps of past Londoners - from lovable rogues, sordid criminals and jaded soldiers to enterprising aristocrats and world-changing thinkers. Join us for one of our tours around London and experience the city like never before, seeing it through the eyes of its many past denizens. Understand the city from a historical lens and imagine it in its many different incarnations. On our tours, you get to learn about historical figures that are outside most regular tours in London.

Ever heard of "Honest Jack" or Jonathan Wild, the Thief-Taker General? How about Donald McBane, the Scottish mercenary who set up a fencing school and an alehouse in London and fought more than a hundred duels? Or Jeremy Bentham, an academic prodigy and the father of utilitarianism? The lives of these figures, and many more, are ripe for exploration.

Tours will be divided into four main categories, with possibly more to come!
