Description:

What a unique way to explore the real working, City of London. By joining a group tour, your experienced guide will be able to unravel the layers of history that have built up by the side of the River Thames, over a period of two centuries.

The East Tour takes a route from our base at Gabriel's Wharf, along the river, stopping at attractions including the new Globe Theatre, Sir Francis Drake's Golden Hinde, on to the Tower of London and Tower Bridge. Over the bridge, to St. Katherine's Dock and then on to Brunel's tunnel, Tobacco Dock, experiencing the atmosphere of the disused London docks. Cross the highway, into Cable Street and discover the true East End, the multi-national, multi-cultural London. Back to the City walls at Aldgate, learn the truth of who Jack the Ripper was, and what was covered up!

Through the gate, to the City, from poverty to riches (metaphorically speaking); a stunning contrast, London's financial district, the splendor of the Royal Exchange, the Mansion House and the Guildhall, intermingled with modern design and a massive number of churches competing for space.

And of course, including the glory of St. Paul's Cathedral. No tour would be complete without enjoying plenty of gossip along the way!
