What we know about the world of spies and spying is limited to what governments, the military and spy organisations want us to know. The information that is released to the general public, through declassification, autobiographies from retired spies, and 'leaks'; only give us the smallest look into the secretive, selective, and seemingly seductive world of spies. This spy tour of London cannot reveal everything, but we can tell you what you need to know.
Aimed with both die-hard spy geeks and people who are curious if the best spies really do drink Vodka Martini's this tour gives you insight into what is known about the people who keep us safe from behind the scenes, and how they manage to do this without being noticed. Beginning in Swiss Cottage, the starting point for a spy story almost too good to be true, which involves the only Brit to receive the Iron Cross, we will take you to the anonymous and infamous sights of London that spies would rather you didn't know.

Gratuities
Waterloo Bridge
Waterloo Bridge is the site of one of the most famous Cold-War assassinations, that of Georgi Markov. Markov was killed by a poisoned Ricin pellet fired from a needle tipped umbrella and is one of a handful of assassinations carried out by Russian agents at the request of the Russian intelligence service.
The Savoy
This grand London hotel is steeped in espionage history, including connections to the creator of James Bond, who engaged in real-life intelligence work and has a surprising spy link to the tradition of placing a Christmas Tree in Trafalgar Square. During World War II, this hotel was the favourite residence of a spy so secretive that even Prime Minister Winston Churchill was unaware of his identity.

Very interesting. I learned a lot about spy techniques of yesteryear and a lot about James Bond films that I never knew. Also, Eian (tour guide)was very knowledgeable, which you would expect, but he was also very personable. I felt like I was on the tour with a good friend. He didn’t rush us, and at the end of the tour, he escorted us to the underground to make sure we got on the right train. Exceptional service.

This tour was amazing! Michael, our tour guide, has a wealth of knowledge about all things related to London’s history of intrigue. He shared some very interesting stories and the places in London connected to them. We all thoroughly enjoyed the experience.
