London Taster

One of the World’s oldest cities, London is home to a wealth of history and cultures. Let us introduce you to the city

Day 1 - Tour of the City

We will explore as much as we can of the city. London is enormous and has so much to do, we won't attempt to show you the whole city in just one day… BUT, we will attempt to cover as much as we possibly can! Bring some comfortable walking shoes and be ready for a packed day of taking in London.
