Officially Unofficial Tour of the City of London

Suse Steed
Select Option:
Cancellation Policy
Up to 24 hours before your scheduled admission.

Think you know London? Think again. Come see round the City of London - the City within a city - on the only officially unofficial tour! This tour is around the financial district — that mysterious “square mile”- where money talks, history whispers, and even the King (allegedly) has to ask permission to pop in. It's perfect for anyone who wants to see behind the tourist veneer of London - you’ll find out about people history has tried to forget - like slave traders, rebel leaders - and about some ordinary Londoners who did some extraordinary things. 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.

Departure 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.

Return Details
  • 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.

Duration
1 hour and 45 minutes
