5.00This tour was our top experience on our UK trip. Arjun isn’t just a guide; he is a master story teller who will lead you through thousands of years of history, and respond to your specific interests. Go beyond the usual crowded sites in London and see where it actually all started, and the places from which British power grew and continues to influence the world: London City, the city within a city.
A passionate guide

5.00Argun gave us such an informative and educational tour of City of London. An off the beaten path tour with not-so-typical sights and stops. If you love history you would like this tour.
Memorable voyage across time

5.00In somewhat of a leisurely Jules Verne sequence, the tour was a memorable voyage across time. It gave us glimpses of Londinium in present day London. Our tour guide Mr Arjun, a prolific researcher and storyteller, dotted the landscape and ancient buildings with characters, events and turning points. Through various artefacts, he traced the origins of the financial capital of the world, and innumerable quests for power and influence. This was a very informative and thought-provoking tour and I would highly recommend it!
