Highlights included the London Stone, Mithraeum and the Inner Temple of the Knights Templar. I'm grateful to Arjun for his interest in the stories that lay beneath the surface and his ability to share his knowledge. On his recommendation my wife and I returned to the cafe below the St. Mary Le-Bow church and enjoyed a very nice lunch in the crypt.read less

This I will do again! This I will do again! This tour was the highlight of my trip to London! I learned about places and symbols I wouldn't be aware of if it wasn't for this. Arjun is a great communicator, and conveys history and mysticism in a manner that I just want to learn more.

If you want something alternative ot at least not a mainstream, please choose this walking tour. It will really open your eyes for many symbols in the city, their history and their origin. The giude has done a lot of research, he is very friendly, helpful and passionate about the topic. As a bonus you will be surprized to visit so quiet and serene places in the heart of this busy and vibrant city. According to me, this tour is a must. If you hasitate, don't! You will enjoy it fully.read less

We learned lots of London history, and were also helped to see some shared ancestorial connections with other cities/countries, too. These show up in repeated shapes, forms and symbols scattered around the old City of London, most of which I'd never know to notice before. I particularly liked the pace of this tour, and that there was a lovely balance of exciting mysticism with real history. It was a mind/body/spirit exercise, with a wonderful guide who you can see loves his work. We enjoyed a peaceful, thoughtful afternoon and can recommend this tour wholeheartedly!read less

I'm very resistant to being told what to do and think, so this was a revelation for me! Arjun created a compelling narrative that encompassed the founding of the City of London, its history of co-operation through the Guilds and its power and autonomy from the Norman invasion to the present day. I can thoroughly recommend this immersive experience!read less

Arjun had done an enormous amount of research to cleverly lead us through from Celts and Romans to modern day, explaining how the financial city had evolved. Would highly recommend this tour for tourists and Londoners alike.read less

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

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

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
