About This Tour
Founded by the Romans in 47AD, the City of London has many stories to tell in its nearly 2000 years history. It is no surprise therefore that the City of London has a quite a dark side including murders, ghosts, executions, crime and punishment. If we are lucky, a ghost might even pay us a visit. There will be plenty of opportunities for photos and questions. Food and drink can be purchased in one of the City’s many cafes or pubs.
