Tour Highlights

• 
  The Monument

  Photos do not do this landmark justice. Built to commemorate the Great Fire of London of 1666, which destroyed over 13000 houses and 87 churches. The magnificent 61 meter column acts as a symbol of London’s faith in its ability to overcome any challenge and always renew itself.

  The Bank to the British government since 1664. It financed the Empire, has seen riots on its footsteps and sits in one of the prettiest squares in the City, a must see.

  London's Best Skyscrapers

  The City of London is one of the world's great financial hubs and is where the Stock Exchange, insurance and market crashes were first invented. In the last 25 years it has become one of the most innovative architectural playgrounds of the world. Our evening stroll will take in the best of London’s skyscrapers such as the descriptively nicknamed “Gherkin”, the Lloyds Building and Tower 42.

  Leadenhall Market

  This fantastic, off the beaten track market, sits at what was the centre of Roman London - The Forum.  The market itself, one of the prettiest in London, has stood here for over 600 years. Fans of Harry Potter will recognize it as the real life setting of Diagon Alley which was filmed on location here.

  In the dark gas light streets of 1888 a serial killer stalked the streets of London’s East End. The brutality of the murders shocked and horrified the capital. The killer, who became knows as Jack the Ripper was never caught by police though his murders caught the imagination of London and the world.
