Top London Spring Break

London is world-renowned for its pubs, but knowing which ones offer the most traditional atmosphere as a first-time visitor can be tough. This City of London tour takes you to some of the area’s most storied watering holes via landmarks harboring more than a thousand years of history.

On this small-group walking tour, step off the tourist trail when you explore parts of London that many visitors overlook—and learn all about the city’s crooks, pirates, and other historical criminals and misdoings.

This small-group tour is capped at 12 for a personal feel. Find your sea legs and sail into the past! Beneath the eerie cry of the gulls, walk along the river from Dead Man’s Hole to Execution Dock, via ancient smugglers’ taverns where press gangs dragged men off to sea. Explore a salt-encrusted, maritime world that was the making of Britain’s empire, and step off the beaten track to discover a long-forgotten way of life – a time when rum-soaked buccaneers chased Spanish treasure ships, and Royal Navy crews fought criminal captains in the Golden Age of Piracy.

Step into two thousand years of history on this guided walking tour through the City of London — the ancient square mile that has been continuously occupied since the Romans founded Londinium in 43 AD. Along the way, you'll stop at five of the capital's most storied pubs, each one a piece of history in its own right, where the stories of the streets continue behind oak-panelled walls, over a pint. This isn't a pub crawl. And it isn't a dry history lecture. It's the best of both — a walk through narrow medieval lanes, Roman ruins, and Great Fire survivors, punctuated by pints in establishments that have been pouring ale since before some countries existed. You'll visit five historic pubs, each chosen for their remarkable stories as much as their beer. Between them, you'll walk cobbled lanes, pass Roman remains, admire the legacy of Sir Christopher Wren, and stand on ground that has seen fire, plague, war, and financial empire rise and fall — and through it all, the pubs have remained.
