DRAGON CITY TOUR It was such a pleasure to go on this tour and listen to the stories and anedoctes Arjun has to offer! Lots of historical and dragon-related insights and his wonderful energy kept the group in a wonderful cocooned atmosphere.
Thankyou fellow Dragon-wisdom keeper for the light you spread across our city!

He has a gift for making history feel immediately relevant, and his knowledge of everything from dragon boundaries to the Roman Mithraeum to the Knights Templar. The five-stop route through the City’s layers was brilliantly chosen, and I came away with a completely refreshed understanding of medieval and Roman London. Highly recommended if you want a walking tour that treats you like an intelligent human.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

More reviewsBeat tour ever — Completely forgot to write my review when I went on the tour in September but I found the email again so leaving a review now. Arjun was an incredible tour guide and so passionate and knowledgable about the topics of dragons, pagans and symbolism. We visited so many places in the 2 hr 30 min time slot and learnt so much. I can guarantee that every piece of information Arjun shares with you is new and important. We could ask him any questions and he always made sure we had time to ask anything. He had a great energy, super calm but also so friendly! Could not recommend this tour enough! If you are interested in paganism and pre-Christian symbolism this tour is for you! It opened my eyes to imagery which I had never noticed before. Thank you Arjun! read less

More reviewsA Fascinating Walk Through the City of London. Would you like to time travel to the origins of one of the world's best loved cities? Our guide, Arjun, has created an interesting and intriguing event that should not be missed! Find out how the positions of the earth's energy lines correspond to London's architecture and how this beautiful modern city is steeped in ancient mythology and folklore. Many remnants of the city's ancient past remain, if only we know where to look. The Dragon Lore Tour will take you there. My husband and I revisited some of the sites from the tour and plan to do so again in the future. The energy is amazing! read less

Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and, despite it being just the two of us, went out of his way to create a truly personalised experience. It offers an unconventional perspective on the origins of money, exploring the exchange of goods, the rise of interest and debt, and the beginnings of banks and the stock exchange — all intertwined with elements of magic and religion in a mysterious way. If you’re passionate about history and looking for a fresh, unconventional take on London’s past, this is the tour for you. read less

An excellent blending of the traditional sightseeing , history of the institutions and their place in the last 2,000 of Mammon in the UK. The difference here is that he tries to build a narrative of how everything interlinks with religion , symbols , power and ancient history. what alternative roads we could have taken and where it’s now with AI and Bitcoin. The dialogue and the interaction with his audience made this an excellent three hour tour. read less

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.

Nous n’avons pas vu le temps passer et j’en garderai un très bon souvenir

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

However it was a bank holiday so not one place was open we just looked at pictures on his phone. Should have been noted when booking that nothing was open as I wouldn't have gone. Also we were told we would get a pdf of the tour so we can go back and visit the places which I still haven't received so from that point it was disappointing. read less
