See Your City in a whole new light with these spine-tingling Halloween walking tours…
In case you hadn’t noticed, London is a rather large city, with an almost endless supply of things to do and see. So rather than ambling around aimlessly on your own, why not join a brilliant guided walking tour from the good folks at See Your City? They’ve got some seriously spooky Halloween tours coming up, and if you’re brave enough to join them, we’ve got your tickets lined up here.
See Your City offer fascinating and entertaining tours in five languages (English, Italian, French, German, and Spanish). And they’re not your standard tours either; fully interactive, and filled with quizzes and re-enactments, these entertaining wanders are a brilliant day out for all. Oh, and all these tours have been given the “good to go” certification by Visit England, meaning you’ll be in safe, sanitised hands throughout the walk. So, let’s dive into what’s on offer!
First up this Halloween is their London Jack the Ripper tour, taking place every Thursday to Saturday. Personally, I don’t think I have the stomach to follow in the footsteps of a killer on my lonesome, so a guided tour is a welcome option here. Picking their way through the conspiracies theories and tall tales that surround the Ripper and his victims, you’re invited to examine each suspect with the help of modern science and decide on your own theory. Tickets are available here.
Should you prefer your walking tours a little less killer, and instead with a creeping sense of dread, try the Ghosts, Ghouls, And Gallows Walking Tour. Once you’ve picked your way through dark alleys and caught sight of London’s most haunted house, you’ll hop aboard a boat for a cruise down the Thames. London’s blood-spattered history is pretty gory in detail, so you’ll need a stout heart (or a brave companion) to tackle this one – particularly when the tour boat rolls up to the ghoulish Tower of London… You can get your tickets here.
Chilling stuff! Thankfully, if you’re prone to having the living bejesus scared out of you, See Your City also run a pair of far more easygoing tours. Pop along for a wander around London’s best coffee shops with this guided coffee tour, or join London’s biggest curd nerds for the unforgettable London Cheese Crawl, which takes you to the cheesiest spots in the city. Hey, the nights are getting darker, and spooky things happen around All Hallows Eve, so we won’t blame you for taking the more sedate options!
