The best views and stories of historic Westminster away from the crowds
Right in the heart of historic Westminster, but away from the noise and crowds of Parliament Square, you will see beautiful, more peaceful views of Westminster Abbey and the Palace of Westminster. We’ll be walking through hidden yards and squares and through some beautiful Georgian streets.
You’ll meet some of the characters who have lived and worked here – royals and politicians of course, but also criminals, chancers, creatives and campaigners …. from William the Conqueror, to the man who tried to steal the Crown Jewels and the suffragettes who bombed Westminster Abbey.
1.5 hours of great stories that bring London's history to life. Please join me.
