London Historic Pub Tour with Private Guide

Join your own private guide to take a tour of London’s historic pubs and immerse yourself in the city’s cultural heritage. Start in Blackfriars at a stunning Victorian pub, saved from demolition in the 1960s by Sir John Betjeman. Next, visit a 17th-century pub in the old leatherworking district, once an office for Sir Christopher Wren and a hub for St. Paul’s masons. Continue to another Wren-era favorite of writers and journalists, featuring cozy wood-paneled rooms and fireplaces. Then, explore a historic Irish pub where Irish soldiers and Fleet Street printers gathered, among the first outside Ireland to serve Guinness. End at an extraordinary 1667 pub, frequented by Dickens and Christie, with its atmospheric paneling, quirky layout, and a stuffed parrot named Polly.
