Greater London Trip Overview
The City of London is a pocket of the city on the north bank of the Thames, between Tower Bridge and the Barbican. You’ll join one of our hosts on an adventure through its centuries-old streets, discovering historic landmarks like the Monument to the Great Fire of London and Leadenhall Market, an ornate, covered Victorian Market (which actually inspired Harry Potter’s Diagon Alley). And you’ll spot The Gherkin, a high-tech, quirky looking skyscraper and Postmodern architectural wonders like No 1 Poultry.
Within 24 hours after booking you’ll receive a short questionnaire about your personality and interests. Based on your responses, you’ll be assigned a like-minded host. Your host will communicate with you directly to suggest an itinerary to help you discover what makes the city unique. You will also agree on a meeting time and place. Your itinerary is flexible, so during the experience, you can always change your mind about what you want to do.
