Travel through a thousand years of history, meeting William Shakespeare, medieval 'Winchester Geese' prostitutes, Charles Dickens, the ghost of a nineteenth century pub landlady, and the wonderfully named Doorkins Magnificat!
On our guided walking tour we'll visit the areas around Borough and Bankside, which being outside the jurisdiction of the City of London were for centuries the site of seedy goings on. We'll learn how the area had been notorious for prostitution since the arrival of the Romans, visit the locations of Southwark's two most notorious prisons of which parts can still be seen today, take in the sights of a millennium-old market, view the remains of a medieval palace, and find Shakespeare's Globe Theatres both old and new!

Thank you for booking my walking tour of London's bawdy borough! We will meet just outside Borough Station and finish not far from London Bridge Station around two hours later. Please aim to arrive five minutes early, as the tour will start on time. If your plans change and you aren't able to make the tour or you will be late, please do send me a quick message on +44 7783 401 129 so that I know whether to send you our live location on WhatsApp.
Many thanks!
