London Lights: Discover how culture has shaped the city on an audio tour

Greater London Trip Overview

Take the lead in a tour of London’s historical cultural influences through time with the helping hand of me, blogger Shaun Nolan!

“Light the Lights” takes you on a self-guided audio tour from the Embankment, up Charing Cross Road, into Covent Garden, along the Strand and back to Leicester Square. As you walk, I’ll tell you everything you need to know about the history of the beautiful buildings you see and the amazing people who have walked the same pavements as you.

London has forever been shaped by the culture that has influenced it. Famous creatives like Charles Dickens and Henry Irving have spent a lot of their lives in the city, being influenced by the environment and atmosphere. And it’s not just a writer’s playground – modern designers, intelligent innovators and important names have also helped to shape the city.
