The tour guide took us through an in depth history of the City of London teaching us several things I hadn't known before, which was intriguing. The tour was conducted as if the guide was telling a story, rather than just reciting historical information. The sights themselves were for the most part easy on the eye and full of history, including places such as the guildhall art gallery and st Lawrence jewry church. We concluded at the bank of England where the guide explained in depth the symbolism of the twelve ornate lampposts in the square, each one representing one of the twelve most important ancient guilds of the City. Would highly recommend! read less Nico7/01/2024Best tour of London with a very knowledgeable guide Best tour of London with a very knowledgeable guide — This is a must-do tour if you want to know the true history of old London!

More reviewsExcellent alternative walking tour even in the rain! — Arjun was very knowledgeable and passionate about the alternative history of London and the spiritual elements and ideas involved. Many of the things he spoke to us about we could have walked past without noticing - despite it being a rainy day, his enthusiasm kept the tour upbeat and interesting. My friend is of a shorter stature and felt the walking pace was very good. Arjun gave us a lot of food for thought and ideas for our next trip and sights to see. read less Jo and Vic7/09/2024

More reviewsWow! Unique experience of London. Our whole family thoroughly enjoyed the unique city of London tour with Arjun. We booked a private tour after our friend recommended Arjun, but we asked him for a mix of historical and mystical (bespoke tour), and he delivered! The information he shared was intriguing and interesting to both our children (11 and 15) and us adults. Arjun is a truly gifted guide and a lovely human being as well. He was very accommodating, flexible and generous with his time and knowledge! We would love to catch up with him again in London or any of the other locations he explores!

Full of iconography, our guide was very knowledgeable and gave us lots of interesting facts & perspectives on history & the events that makes London City what it is today. We went on a Sunday, two stops on the journey were closed but this was made up in extra time at other sites and images provided of the closed venues. Overall, very enjoyable! read less julie r4/01/2024Would you like to time travel to the... Would you like to time travel to the origins of one of the world's best loved cities?

More reviewsWould you like to time travel to the origins of one of the world's best loved cities? Our guide, Arjun, will take you back in time using his many tools such as symbolism, sacred geometry, historical records and more. Find out how the positions of the earth's energy lines correspond to London's architecture and how the buildings tell a story. Many remnants of the city's ancient past remain, if only we know where to look. The Dragon Lore Tour is the perfect way to discover these gems. My husband and I revisited some of the sites from the tour and plan to do so again in the future. This tour will give you a new set of eyes to look at London with! read less Anne van Lingen4/07/2025

Arjun was truly one of the best guides we’ve ever had—knowledgeable, engaging, and passionate from start to finish. He brought the history and mystery of both sites to life in a way that made the entire experience feel special and personal.
He shared stories, answered every question with enthusiasm, and made sure everyone in the group felt included. We walked away not only with beautiful memories, but with a deeper appreciation for these incredible places.
If you’re considering this tour, don’t hesitate—especially if you’re lucky enough to have a guide like ours. It was a day we’ll be talking about for a long time! read less Melanie Krugel11/26/2025Impressive, well paced, full of interesting ideas. Impressive, well paced, full of interesting ideas.

J’ai trouvé qu'il était assez facile de le comprendre même quand on est pas bilingue, mais il y avait quand même du vocabulaire un peu technique par moments.

More reviewsOur tour to Glantonbury was simply amazing. I went with my husband past June 2026. Arjun is an excellent guide. He knows perfectly the history, the legends, the spirit and the misteries of these places . He tries to hear, feel and understand our motivations going there while been very respectful with our own believes. He guíded us through history of Chistianity, misticism, celtic legends and finally we built our own story and our own thruth of these places.
Arjun even tried to show us the last crop circle nearby, but it was impossible to get there. He really tried to fulfill our expectations of the places we wanted to connect.
We couldn't have hoped for a more sensitive, fun, wise and knowledgeable guide. Thankyou so much for our wonderful experience. read less Mercedes Alfaro7/16/2026City of London: Best Tour I Could've Asked For Undoubtedly the highlight of my time in London!

More reviewsUndoubtedly the highlight of my time in London!
Arjun is exceptionally knowledgeable, but what really sets him apart is how he structures the experience. Rather than just pointing out sites, he weaves a cohesive narrative that charts the origin story of the City of London, from its early roots through its rise as the financial capital of the world.
What made the experience especially memorable was how personal he made it. He took the time to understand my interests and background and tailored parts of the tour to align with them, which made everything feel much more engaging and relevant. He also provided a comprehensive PDF guide afterward, which was an unexpected bonus. It neatly recaps the places we visited and the broader historical narrative.
On top of all that, Arjun is incredibly personable and kind; just a genuinely great person to spend a few hours with.
Would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting London. And if you’re even remotely a history or finance nerd like me, this is about as close as it gets to a perfectly designed experience. read less Julius Moye4/05/2026 - Great Tour and Loved the experience!
