Hidden Westminster Walking Tour with a Funny Historian

2 hours (approximately)
Offered in: English

Hidden London is all around you — but it only reveals itself when you know where to look.

On this fun and surprising walking tour, that's perfect for both adults and families, you’ll see the country’s smallest police station, visit a back‑to‑front church, and even take a peek inside a playwright’s head. You’ll encounter dangling balls, hidden bones, and a buried beach. There’s a murder, a music video, and a magical alley. You’ll also see a whipping post, a gentleman’s club, and a famous slapstick — not forgetting a farty street lamp and a killer toilet. If all of that doesn’t leave you flushed with excitement, nothing will.

Your guide is a Londoner, a historian, and a stand‑up comic, bringing the city’s secrets to life with humour and insight. It’s a circular walk, so you finish where you started — but with a far deeper understanding of London’s hidden stories.

If you miss this walk, you’ll miss what’s hidden forever. Book now.
