This exciting City of Spies private tour has been created exclusively to take you on a fascinating journey through London's espionage history during the Cold War, the origins of MI5 and MI6, and to learn about Churchill's role in bringing down the Nazi regime.
Your tour guide will take you on a journey through the streets of London to uncover the main characters and buildings that shaped the history of the world while telling you stories that seem more like Le Carré novels than real life.
After your walking tour, you will visit the Churchill War Rooms, located below the streets of Westminster. An underground network of bunkers that functioned as British wartime offices, planning, and map rooms.
It was here that much of Allied intelligence and strategy was discussed and planned in WWII, as well as serving as a place of refuge and shelter for the government during the blitz. Your guide will give a fascinating tour of this place that has been left exactly as it was since 1944.

Our fantastic guide was David Charnick and we got so lucky to have him. He was a wealth of knowledge with really fun and interesting stories about the places and things he was showing us. I don’t know how he gave so much information over 4 hours on one bottle of water but he did and I have the feeling could do it for 4 more hours. The tour was one of the best parts of our trip and even the sullen teens in our group were entranced.
