Description
Start your journey in the historic heart of London, where centuries of trade, culture, and cuisine come together. Visit a traditional pub on one of the city’s oldest streets and enjoy a classic British dish, such as a steak and ale pie, paired with a local drink.
Continue to a renowned 19th-century dining room once frequented by famous artists and writers, then sample fresh seafood at a long-standing local institution. Along the way, your guide will reveal the difference between London and the City of London as you pass medieval buildings, Roman remains, and historic markets.
Stop at a modern artisan bakery inside the iconic Royal Exchange to pick up a sweet treat to enjoy later. Step into a grand former bank for another savory tasting, before heading to a hidden historic tavern linked to Charles Dickens.
End your experience in a stunning covered market featured in a famous film, bringing together London’s rich history, culture, and flavors in one unforgettable group tour.
