Discover the hidden London that exists in its symbolism, architecture and the subtler realm that is not visible to the eyes.
We explore London through its Sites of pilgrimage, Ley lines, Forgotten waters, Ancient Mounds, Occult symbols, and Astrology, and uncover the threads that weave together its many settlers and invaders from the prehistoric times of the Druids to the Knights of the Templar and to the present day.

The passion, warmth and knowledge Arjent brings to the tour made the hours fly by, even in the middle of a heatwave. He is symbolic of the difference between a good tour and a boring one and regaled us with tales, facts and stats as if they were tattooed on his soul. Stories of dragons, romans, ancient trees; a phoenix here and a magician there. Ancient religions, the occult and building blocks of civilisations. Every step took us through mythology, etymology and history and all with a glint in the eye and humour that matched ours. Deeply, hugely enjoyable. I genuinely cannot recommend Arjent’s tours enough – and we WILL be returning for more of the same. Thank you, mate. You rock. read less Paul Chambers7/09/2026Mystical, fun and deeply informative This is definitely not your typical tour. It is fun, mystical and educational on many levels.

More reviewsThis is definitely not your typical tour. It is fun, mystical and educational on many levels. Arjun is deeply insightful and has a broad knowledge of both the historical and the metaphysical aspects of the places we visited. You can tell he loves taking his groups on an adventure, and he makes it easy to step out of time and immerse yourself in the ancient landscape his storytelling brings to life. I lived in London for many years and still came away having learned a great deal. I highly recommend Arjun's Dragon Lore Tours. read less Cinzia Sarigu8/06/2026 - One of BEST tours in London.

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 Historical Free Walking Tour —...

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 Baron10/29/2024Dragons are everywhere . Dragons are everywhere ... if you know where to look!

More reviewsBeautiful and very interesting tour! — We had an amazing time on a walking tour exploring London’s historical and mystical sites. 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 Doina Bruno11/17/2024

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 Moye4/05/2026Wiltshire stone circles.

More reviewsWiltshire stone circles. I feel frankly blessed to have crossed paths with Arjun of Dragon Lore Tours. I was looking for an experience of the Wiltshire stone circles that went beyond the usual tourist-style visits. I found that and far more from Arjun, who is not only learned and well researched, but also carries his own lived experience of decades of interacting with these sacred sites. His connection is heartfelt, embodied, and rooted in years of direct communion with the land. Arjun is a patient, calm, and kind guide who created an atmosphere where I could sink into the energy of each place without feeling rushed. He held space with respect, allowing for personal reflection, while offering insights on the layers of history and lore woven into these landscapes. My time on Arjun's tour was not only enriching, it felt like an opportunity for a deeper conversation with the land itself. read less shebarkharbanda8/01/2025 - Review Of course — here is the review with the name spelled Arjun:

I had an incredible experience with Dragon Lore Tours! The tour was truly memorable, and our guide, Arjun, was exceptional. He was incredibly knowledgeable, passionate, and brought so much depth and meaning to the experience. His understanding of the history, stories, and hidden details made the tour come alive in a way that I never could have experienced on my own.
Arjun was not only informative but also engaging and personable. He created a welcoming atmosphere, answered all of our questions, and shared fascinating insights that made the entire journey feel special. It was clear how much care and passion he puts into his work.
I highly recommend Dragon Lore Tours to anyone looking for a unique, enriching, and unforgettable experience.

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.
