City of London Tour - Ye Olde England Tours

No-one else does a City of London Tour like we do. Our Secret Gardens of the City of London tour is unique and has been ranked the most authentic London experience on TripAdvisor/Viator. Our Roman London tour similarly and our Historic London pubs tour is superb.

See the oldest and original London in our City of London Tour

The City of London is almost unvisited (except by us) and so we have created this new and special tour all about the City of London. Whist other tourists get lost in the crowds at Buckingham Palace and Westminster, join us in the oldest, historic, quirkiest part of London. Just us, no tour buses, no crowds of people. Often barely even locals!

Bank Junction, the very heart of the City of London Tour.

This private tour takes you through the nooks and crannies and grand streets of perhaps the greatest city in the world.

Greater London might be 671 Square Miles but comparatively few people visit the City of London which is just 1 square mile. This is the original London. The London of the Romans and those who lived before them. The Vikings, Anglo-Saxons and Normans. Money, finance, big business and science mixed with Great Fires, Plagues. poverty, crime, executions and the Blitz.

If you're visiting Big Ben or the Palace or Covent Garden then you're not even in real London. See where it all began in the City of London Tour.

In this walk we will see almost all of it. The modern skyscrapers, the Roman ruins and everything in between. Leave the Big Bus tours behind; many of the places we go, don’t even have roads. This is the real, authentic London with medieval lanes not the busy tourist sites in Westminster.

We guarantee you won’t have seen this side of London because that’s what even Londoners have told us. As well as the gorgeous St Pauls and infamous Tower of London, we will see the beautiful and historic Guild Hall, Leadenhall Market, the Bank of England, Royal Exchange and Mansion House buildings From the controversial Barbican estate to Roman and Viking lanes. The Gherkin to the oldest coffee shop. Places of executions and disasters to hidden oases.
