Tucked away in a quiet Belgravia mews, The Grenadier is one of London's most atmospheric pubs. Steeped in history and surrounded by elegant streets, it's the perfect place to pause while discovering one of the capital's most exclusive neighbourhoods.

Looking for something a little different for your next staff social or client event?

Our guided Belgravia walks combine fascinating stories, beautiful architecture and the opportunity to visit historic pubs along the way.

Swap the boardroom for Belgravia and let us show your team a side of London they may never have discovered.

Is it too early to talk about Christmas?

Ok. So August is too early to tell you we are already getting bookings for our Dickens at Christmas walk?

So we will wait to talk about how you can join us in December and get into the spirit of Christmas, stepping back to take a look at London as Charles Dickens would have seen it 150 years ago. J

We wont ask you to join us as we visit the places that featured in Dickens’ life and work and inspired him to create characters as dark, as joyous and as complex as Scrooge, Jacob Marley, the Cratchit family.

Ok...so just follow us to see what else August has in store and we 'might' come back to our Dickens walks later...

But you can still book- link in bio!

Surrounded today by some of the City's tallest skyscrapers, the Royal Exchange perfectly captures what makes the Square Mile so special—centuries of history standing side by side with the modern world.

Join us on Saturday 29th August for a guided walk through the City of London and discover the stories behind the streets, buildings and landmarks that most people pass every day without a second glance.

Whether you work in the City, are visiting London, or simply love discovering hidden history, we'd love to show you a different side of the Square Mile.

The next time you're sweltering on the Central Line, spare a thought for Londoners in the summer of 1858! 🌡️

That year, weeks of relentless heat sank the Thames lower than normal, leaving raw sewage baking on the riverbanks.

The result was the Great Stink - a smell so bad that people reportedly vomited near the river, MPs in Parliament soaked their curtains in chloride of lime to try to block it out, and anyone who could afford to fled the city.

The stink did what decades of warnings couldn't: Parliament rushed through funding for a new sewer system in just 18 days. Engineer Joseph Bazalgette built the network of brick tunnels that still forms the backbone of London's sewers today.

7 Satues Series- number 4

The Cordwainer.

Not a word we hear very often anymore. A cordwainer is a shoe maker/leather worker and this statue by Alma Boyes was created in 2002 to commemorate 100 years of the ward of Cordwainer Club.

It can be found in Watling Street in the ward of Cordwainer, which in medieval times was the centre of shoe-making in the City of London. Leather from Cordoba in Spain was used which gave rise to the name of the craftsmen and the Ward.

7 statues series - number 3

The City and County of London Troops War Memorial was unveiled in 1920 to honour London soldiers who served in World War I.

Located in front of the iconic Royal Exchange, this beautiful memorial was designed by Sir Aston Webb and features bronze soldier statues created by Alfred Drury.
Look closely and you’ll spot the bronze lion at the top, proudly holding a shield depicting St George and the Dragon. 🦁
