Outstanding personal customized London walking tour through Homer’s Odysseys with Nigel!

5.00Nigel arranged a customized private walking tour of Roman London, plus some changes we requested to our original agenda at the last minute. We never could have covered all the territory and learned so much if it hadn’t been for him. I can’t imagine doing this any other way. Definitely not a standard, canned tour! If you want the best of the best, arrange a tour with Nigel!
Interesting, informative and humorous.

5.00Fantastic walking tour with Nigel. We started near the Tower of London viewing the remains of the Roman wall, before going down to see Tower Bridge. We visited Leadenhall Market, where Nigel took us into a local hairdresser where there is a Roman surprise in the basement. We visited a temple, the Bank of England and Borough Market, where we had a lovely lunch. There was so much more that we saw, all explained expertly by Nigel in an informative and humorous way. Would highly recommend this tour. You won’t be disappointed!
