Highlights
London is often called a "melting pot," but many people don't know how London became the diverse city we know it to be. This walking tour will show you a different side of the city by disclosing details of colonial history and Commonwealth migration that is hardly talked about. Our walking tour is a unique opportunity to immerse yourself in London's history while learning a few things, led by a charismatic and knowledgeable guide. There are plenty of chances to ask questions, take pictures, spot street art, grab a bite while you walk, and leave after seeing a different side of the city.
