2 hours (approximately)
Offered in: English

Meet your guide by the London Eye and prepare to explore the exciting world of espionage from the James Bond franchise. Learn all about the man behind Bond, Ian Fleming, and how his experiences in combat and spying on enemies of Britain led to the creation of fiction's greatest secret agent.

Hear about some other spies in London, including John Le Carre's George Smiley, Mick Herron's Slow Horses, and Robert Ludlum's Jason Bourne. Listen to real tales of espionage within the capital.

See sights like Westminster Bridge, Big Ben, the Houses of Parliament, Trafalgar Square, and the MI5 building. Find out where to go if you want to dress like James Bond, and where spies like James Bond go out to dine with a glass of martini… shaken, not stirred.
