The Walk Experiences

The benefits of walking

What is it all about?
This is storytelling and entertainment at it’s best.

Though nearly all humans tell stories, many individuals have brought this skill to the level of art.. Elements of the storytelling art form include visualization (the seeing of images in the mind's eye), and vocal and bodily gestures. In many ways, the art of storytelling draws upon other art forms such as acting, oral interpretation, and performance studies.

The ancient art comes to life on the streets of London as we delve into the city’s hidden past and find out how the legends of London were born and survived everything that the Blitz, redevelopment and the TV age could throw at it. Today the storytelling tradition is more alive and exciting than ever and London is the city that brings it to life in a graphic and unforgettable dimension.

And walking tours are healthy too and a great way of respecting the environment. Find out about the BENEFITS OF WALKING.

Find out about your city, it’s past, it’s people and how it came to be the place it is today on a LONDON WALKING TOUR

General Information:
All walkers should bring with them their booking form.

We make a point of visiting as many locations as possible on our walks. This may be quite demanding for some so please state any particular requirements in advance of your walk and we will do our best to accommodate. Our walks differ in that this is not merely a stomp through London but a mix of cultural experience, storytelling and walking activity. This has been the experience which has made it so successful.

In order to give a true reflection of the place; we find that many clients wish to carry out some advance or post-walk reading. Please do contact us on this score and to e-mail us with your question and we’ll be happy to provide any information we can.

Please be aware that arrival times and the itinerary may change due to unforeseen delays or events such as festivals and public holidays. However, we shall endeavour to ensure all sites are visited and that your tour runs as smoothly as possible but please note that London does not run like clockwork, roadworks and transport cancellations can lead to the best laid plans coming unstuck, therefore do not expect the streamlined arrangements associated with some other tours. Things do not always go to plan. Do be flexible, you will enjoy your tour much more.
