Overview

London's pub scene isn't really about what's in your glass, it's where the city's stories live. This private tour visits four historic taverns most visitors walk straight past, with a guide focused entirely on your group and a pace built around actually enjoying the pint in front of you.

  • Taste a traditional pork pie and London ale at a hidden 16th-century tavern with royal connections
  • Sip crisp cider and a sausage roll inside a pub designed by Sir Christopher Wren
  • Eat fried seafood and stout at the Fleet Street pub where Charles Dickens once dined
  • Finish with a scotch egg, a portobello ale, and a pub game played since the 15th century
  • Keep the whole evening private, just your group and a guide with nowhere else to be

What's included

  • 4 classic British food tastings, from pork pies to scotch eggs
  • 4 expertly paired drinks, including traditional ales, cider, and stout
  • A private English-speaking guide, focused only on your group
  • A lesson in pub etiquette and a traditional English pub game

What to expect

A Hidden Tavern: royal connections down a quiet alley

Begin down a hidden alleyway at a 16th-century tavern most people would never find on their own. Inside, hear the story of its connection to Queen Elizabeth I while working through your first pairing: a traditional pork pie and a London ale poured properly, head and all.

A Pub Designed by Wren: the mind behind St. Paul's

Next, step into a cozy bar designed by Sir Christopher Wren, the same architect behind St. Paul's Cathedral. Your guide points out the carved details in the ceiling that most visitors never think to look up for, while you work through a crisp English cider and a flaky sausage roll.
