More reviewsA deeply thoughtful investigation into the meaning of symbols and the stories they tell about us —who we are , who we were—from antiquity to present time. Arjun is not only a wonderful storyteller but an intellectual. Fellow seekers, no matter what dragons you may have to slay, this tour will arm you , if not with weapons then with wonder and a sense of what binds us as humans. read less Kiley E Moran5/30/2025City of London Mythology tour - very interesting This is a great tour if you’re looking for something a bit different.

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 Julie4/23/2024 - Most Important London Tour. Most Important London Tour. This tour was our top experience on our UK trip.

Arjun isn't just a guide; he is a master story teller who will lead you through thousands of years of history, and respond to your specific interests. Go beyond the usual crowded sites in London and see where it actually all started, and the places from which British power grew and continues to influence the world: London City, the city within a city. read less susanoX4358BF8/01/2025We were looking for a walking tour about...

The one I really wanted to do was fully booked, so we did the Dragon Lore Tours. And wow, I'm so glad that tour was booked because this was even better! Arjun is such an incredible guide. He is incredibly well-informed about everything related to the history of the City of London, he was generous in sharing his knowledge, and he was very good at adapting to the group. Thank you, Arjun! We'll be back next year to do the other tour :) read less Nadia Joos9/07/2025One of the most lovely London experiences One of the greatest experiences in London.

The tour guide Arjun is a lovely, knowledgeable and very chatty person to be on a tour with. We were five people only and had the time of our lives by getting to know many parts of London and stories you wouldn't get otherwise. Arjun chatted with us on whatever came to our mind between the sights and we had such great talks about a plethora of things. If you are into mythical stuff, history, symbols, gods and mysteries besides the dragons and into finding hidden places in London, this is for you! Thanks a lot for that great experience. read less Oskar Leonard Baron10/29/2024

More reviewsThe guide was exceptionally knowledgeable and took great care to individualize the information. Good with a 10 year old with a lot of questions. Saw a few more churches than we expected but they were spectacular and ones we would have missed on our own. Symbolism of icons was presented well and without judgement.

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! Highly recommend if you want a unique and deeper experience of London! read less Mireille Azar8/01/2025Stepping back in time and adventuring through history Wow! Arjun didn't fail to deliver.

More reviewsThe London Mystical Tour was the best tour I did so far :) Arjun is such a kind guide and seems to be born as an encyclopaedia cause he could tell a well researched, profound story to everything we were interested in on the way. What stuck out to me as well, has been his great passion and interest in the content of the tour. I enjoyed to learn the meaning and background of commonly used symbols in buildings and recognize them anywhere else in architecture and art now :)) read less Sophie4/11/2025

More reviewsMe and a friend joined a Dragon Lore tour in the City of London with guide Arjun and we surprisingly had an amazing time. A bit sceptical if it was going to be what we hoped it to be... And YES! It was spot on. Showing us secret places, going into these special places to share the symbolism, stopping at places no other classic tour will do... Many puzzle pieces fell together during the walk, listening to the lores and it was nice talking to our tour guide too. A must for people who love to explore a spiritual/mystical side of London! Thanks again by the way. :-) Will check out the other tours too! read less Anneliese Meurs11/07/2025The mystical walking tour in London was a fantastic experience.

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
