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.
During my tours, I will give you a lot of book and podcast recommendations. So if you don't like books and you don't like podcasts, then my tours are probably not for you. My goal is to mix fun with learning, and based on this mix I've secured over 2,000 five-star reviews on GuruWalk. If this sounds like something you would enjoy, then please join me!
Este tour es increíble. Como turistas, descubrimos los oscuros secretos del lavado de dinero gracias a Justin, que nos compartió datos fascinantes en los mismos lugares donde ocurrieron los hechos, sitios que fácilmente habría pasado por alto sin su guía. Definitely 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Brilliant tour - the history lessons we never had at school. Enjoyed the book recommendations, made me want to learn and read more and go on more of Justin's tours !!
Pleasantly surprised as we’ve done others noted as professional and Justin was informative, patient and enthusiastic
