Interesting, informative and humorous. - Fantastic walking tour with Nigel. We started near the Tower of London viewing the remains of the Roman wall, before going down to see Tower Bridge. We visited Leadenhall Market, where Nigel took us into a local hairdresser where there is a Roman surprise in the basement. We visited a temple, the Bank of England and Borough Market, where we had a lovely lunch. There was so much more that we saw, all explained expertly by Nigel in an informative and humorous way. Would highly recommend this tour. You won’t be disappointed!
