Officially Unofficial Tour of the City of London

1 hour 45 minutes (approximately)

Think you know London? Think again. Come see round the City of London - the City within a city - on the only officially unofficial tour!

Come find out about things that history has tried to forget on this tour of the City of London — that mysterious “square mile”- where money talks, history whispers, and even the King (allegedly) has to ask permission to pop in.
If you want to be shown around the City of London by one of their official, trained and qualified guides, this isn't the tour for you! Your guide will be comedian, TedX Speaker and ex-economist Suse Steed (“will make you learn as well as laugh” Evening Standard).

It’s smart, it’s funny, and it’s the *only* officially unofficial tour.

25% of Profits from this tour will go to support the charity 'Focus on Congo'.

Meeting and pickup

Meeting point
Southwark View Point

The meeting point is marked on Google Maps as "Southwark Viewpoint." It's near the cafe entrance to Southwark Cathedral. Look out for Suse she'll be holding a blue umbrella! Another tip - it's near Borough Market so allow yourself a bit of time for something tasty to eat first.

End point

The tour ends in the City of London - usually at Postman's Park (weather permitting). It's close to St Paul's Cathedral and Suse can point you in that direction if you want to head there after.
