Private Walking Tours of London
In addition to the calendar of guided London walking tours , I offer private walking tours for a single group. These are also £18 per person, with a minimum charge of £180. To book a private walking tour of London, please contact me directly to arrange a date.
[Please note that private tours can be one or more of my existing walking tour routes ; I do not offer bespoke routes, as each tour takes many months to research, write and learn, and I want to offer the best possible experience rather than cobbling something together at the last minute.]
