Ghosts, Gaslight & Guinness Walk


This is the most haunted city on earth: unutterably old, built over a fen of undisclosed horrors, believed to contain occult lines of geometry. Now I don't want to weird you out, but where we're going tonight time past and time present can fuse... especially when the daylight bleeds away. If in a dark window you see an even darker silhouette staring back, or if the branches of a tree suddenly shiver like a spider's web that's caught something, or if you follow a stranger into a graveyard (or a pub where everything isn't as it seems)... you could well be wayfaring to the rebecks of eternity. Fancy a pint?

To go on a walk, meet your guide and fellow walks on the pavement just outside the designated Underground station at the time stated. Your guide will be holding up copies of The Original LONDON WALKS leaflet.

The walks last about two hours and end near Underground stations. There is no need to book. (NB large groups please phone and let us know you're coming) The walks take place rain or shine.
