Want something a little deeper than the London popular culture tours? I'm a former teacher, economist, analyst and a lover of history, books and ideas.
If you just want to take photos to put on social media, have little interest in history and don’t really like walking, then PLEASE BOOK A DIFFERENT TOUR!!!
If you are intellectually curious and like to think, then let me take you through the streets of London, from the City (the old Roman town of Londinium), to Southwark on the south bank of the River Thames and then to Covent Garden, Soho, Mayfair & St James’s (6 different walks in total). I'll explain how London came from being a European backwater in the 1500s to the largest city in the world in the 1800s.
Today, London surpasses New York in diversity and has become a playground for the rich. From clean money to dirty money, I'll tell you the back story behind London's rise, not just the official version! The good, the bad and the ugly: you'll hear about it all.
On a wet grey evening, we joined Justin on a walking tour of the most prestigious and expensive real estate in the world. Justin through his indepth knowledge, wit and dry humour made the tour a great experience. Highly recommend it if you are interested in learning about the rich in the past and how it ties up to present day economics, politics and everything else
Justin’s tour was fabulous! He presented a detailed insight into what made our ‘Great’ nation. A compelling mix of history, architectural insight and popular culture which made for a truly informative tour. Would highly recommend
Justin was a friendly, upbeat and knowledgeable guide. The 2 hours flew by. I picked up a lot of historical facts that make me want to read up on English history.
Informative tour by former economist
