About This Event

Explore London at your own pace Follow the south bank from the wharves that fed London to the streets where an abbey once stood. Look out at the warship that fired on D-Day, see the warehouses that held tea and spices, a food market under the railway arches, the square built over a medieval abbey where two queens died, and a pie and mash shop that has served East Londoners for over a century.

Who it suits Solo travellers, couples, families and small groups who would rather explore on their own schedule than follow a guide and a fixed departure time. It suits a first visit, and it suits anyone who has already seen the famous sights and wants to know what actually happened in them.
