This private walking tour takes us to many hidden, silent, sacred and secret gardens and ruins in the City of London. Even Londoners don't know about most of these sites and that is why they are such wonderful and historic places. Beautiful old gothic church yard gardens, each a peaceful, historic oasis in busy London.

  • We have earmarked this tour as especially safe during the Coronavirus outbreak due to generally quiet places that we visit where social distancing is generally not a problem. All of our tours are private so it is just you/your family and your guide.  To make it easier and safer for all concerned we would suggest starting this tour a little later than the usual time, perhaps around 10.30-11am which allows us all to miss rush-hour. We are happy to still come to your hotel to meet you but for the moment we would suggest meeting us at the tour starting point.  This allows you to arrive by a taxi or uber rather than public transport. Please feel free to wear masks throughout or at times during the tour.  Your guide will also have a mask with them.

These gardens are free to the public. £350 for a 3 hour walking tour is nothing other than an extortion in my view. Save your money and do it yourself.

Excellent tour! Very informative. Stephen was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic, learnt loads about a place we thought we knew! Now have a list of his other tours to book…

If I could, I’d like to give this experience a 10 out of 5. I can’t believe all of these amazing gardens, the rich history of why these places are even here, and how lucky we feel to have spent a good bit of time with Kevin, our guide. He is the most patient, passionate, knowledgeable tour guide. He knows London inside and out, and we really put him to the test. Can’t praise him highly enough. If you think you’ve “done” London, but you haven’t done this tour, prepare for a Master Class in the real London. We won’t forget this day ever.
This tour in London is organized by Ye Olde England Tours
