The 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 as 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 learning the meaning and background of commonly used symbols in buildings and recognize them anywhere else in architecture and art now!read less

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

As a solo traveler this made all the difference. I have already recommended Dragon Lore Tours to several friends. Best guide in the area.read less

We also stopped by the Mithraeum and did the immersive experience (I had been before but it was really nice to go again with a guide). You can tell Arjun has really thought through the route and the stories he tells. We had a lovely chat afterwards too, he has a lot of time for questions and feedback.read less

In somewhat of a leisurely Jules Verne sequence, the tour was a memorable voyage across time. It gave us glimpses of Londinium in present day London. Our tour guide Mr Arjun, a prolific researcher and storyteller, dotted the landscape and ancient buildings with characters, events and turning points. Through various artefacts, he traced the origins of the financial capital of the world, and innumerable quests for power and influence. This was a very informative and thought-provoking tour and I would highly recommend it!read less

The depth of research went above and beyond what would be considered normal. His way of infusing historical and present facts was expertly done. Though he imparted copious amounts of knowledge I felt his delivery was easy to digest. Another facet of the tour I was pleased with is the path we took — it encompasses hidden gems I was unlikely to find on my own. All in all although the weather was inclement I found the time spent with Arjun flew by and this was besides the fact that we ran over time due to my engagement in asking copious questions to which he happily sought to answer. A full A+ from me. Looking forward to being able to go on another one of his tours.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

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. read less

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

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

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

It was one of the highlights of our trip to England.
Arjun is exceptionally knowledgeable, but what really sets him apart is his genuine passion for England, its history, politics, culture, and the legacy of the British Empire. He has an incredible ability to weave together thousands of years of history into engaging stories that make every stop come alive. Whether we were standing among the stones at Avebury or exploring the magnificent Salisbury Cathedral, he provided fascinating context that you simply wouldn’t get from a guidebook.
He was thoughtful, personable, and happy to answer our endless questions, adapting the conversation to our interests while making the day feel relaxed rather than rushed. His enthusiasm is infectious, and it’s clear he truly loves sharing his country with visitors.
If you’re looking for a guide who combines deep historical knowledge with engaging storytelling and genuine warmth, I cannot recommend Arjun highly enough. We left with a much richer understanding of England and some fantastic memories. Thank you, Arjun, for such an outstanding experience!read less

Arjul was an exceptional guide, combining his deep knowledge with an engaging storytelling style that made the city’s past feel alive.
What stood out the most was the way Arjul encouraged us to notice the small, often overlooked details—each one holding its own story or significance. His ability to weave together history and mystery was both fascinating and inspiring.
The tour offered a perfect mix of insight and intrigue, leaving us with a newfound appreciation for London. If you’re looking for a guide who will open your eyes to the city in a completely new way, we highly recommend this tour.read less
