Happy to make this a bespoke tour and be flexible about timings. If you message me we can work something out!
While Borough Market is firmly on the tourist trail I will show you the hidden, quirky history that only the locals know. Starting from the famous market we will discover the heroes and villains that makes this corner of London such an amazing place.
Guaranteed only small groups away from the crowds in the quiet backstreets. This is a family friendly tour, with a personal touch.
Behind the waterfront there is a maze of streets, with 2,000 years of history to uncover. We will hear about Shakespeare and his rivals, who inspired Dickens and the area's dark side!
Message me if you would like a private group or corporate tour. This could be an ideal present for the history buff in your life!
