The saying goes that when you are tired of London, you are tired of life. There is so much to do and experience in London, both for residents and visitors that you could never be bored. In certain ways visitors have an edge; for them everything about London is new and exciting. People who have lived there all their lives tend to take it all for granted.
Londoners see everything on their way to work, shopping and eating out. But do they really ‘see’ or does everything just fade into the background, become commonplace scenery? Isn’t it time that Londoners join the millions of wide-eyed tourists and discover the wonders of London again?
Each day visitors discover the magic of putting on a pair of comfortable walking shoes and going on a London sightseeing tour. But these are tours with a difference; no getting into tour buses or taxi cabs, this is getting their feet personally acquainted with London.

Walks of London have become hugely popular as people discover a forgotten world. There is such a great variety of guided walking tours to choose from that everyone will find one to suit them. The only problem is that once you start with one walking tour, you will become hooked. There are simply so many vastly different walking tours to choose from.
There is the mysterious, the macabre, the whimsy, the outright fun and often the sad to experience. All of it is a living part of history and each walking tour becomes a journey of discovery. Londoners and visitors alike will end up getting more than one pair of walking shoes before discovering even half of what walks of London has to show them.
