The Fading Light London Ghost Walk

25
It is said that England is the most haunted country on Earth, and indeed, there are more ghost stories and strange tales, mile for mile, than any other place in the world. With such a rich and varied history, this should come as no real surprise. Therefore, it seems only fitting that it should also have the most haunted capital city on Earth. On this ghost walk, we will encounter everything from murderous queens to demon dogs, as well as a few gentler souls. And while this walk is primarily a ghost walk, I will also point out a few places of historical interest. Not only will you be led by a fully experienced City of London guide, but also a veteran ghost hunter. Who has personally taken part in over 15 overnight ghost hunts across England. The guide is also a horror author, who loves anything to do with the supernatural.

Discover Non-touristy & Secret London with a City Planner

Discover Non-touristy & Secret London with a City Planner

1
London is only truly experienced when you venture off the well-worn tourist track so that you can see, hear and feel the place the same way a local does. Only then will you get close to the true essence, to the true heart, to the very fabric of the place you are in and have an experience like no other. We are going to leave the touristy mainstream London to the side and explore its unseen and authentic neighbourhoods outside the centre because this is where the ordinary Londoners acutally live their everyday lives. We delve into London's modern and pioneering urban history to understand its current challenges as well as future developments. Despite the length of six hours the tour does not feel too exhausting and time will fly. In between, you can also sit and relax for a bit while we travel by bus and train. There's also a 30-min sit-down lunch break at a food market (when the weather is cold or rainy). WE MIGHT FINISH 15-20 MINS LATE IF TRAFFIC IS SLOW. See you soon Fabian

There is no time to rest in London; you must stroll through Trafalgar Square, take a tour of the lace vaults in Westminster Abbey, and find No. 10 Downing Street, home of the British Prime Minister. Visit Buckingham Palace and see the city from the London Eye.

Get in the spirit of the city

For a taste of the city's business side, head to the City of London, home to the financial center, Tower 42, The Gherkin and other towering buildings. Don't forget to take a break for a traditional five o'clock tea and milk.

Where to relax

Take a break in Hyde Park - you can hire a bike, lounge on the grass or feed the hand squirrels. If you're traveling with kids, take them to King's Cross Station, Platform 9 ¾ of the magical world of Harry Potter.

Non-Tourist London.

Want to feel like a local? Instead of a restaurant lunch, head to Borough Market for great curries, paella and English wine. For a break from sightseeing, stroll along Regent's Canal, known as Little Venice.

Music and Markets

Listen to quality live music from jazz to hard rock in Camden. For shopping and souvenirs, do what Londoners do: hit the street markets. Vintage goods are sold at Camden Market, while rare antiques are sold at Portobello Market.

And four other things to do in London:

  • take a ride on a red double-decker bus;
  • watch the Changing of the Guard at Buckingham Palace;
  • stand at the zero meridian in Greenwich;
  • stroll along the south bank of the Thames.
