Stop At: London, London, England

Meet your local tour guide in front of Holborn Tube Station for your 3-hour walking pub tour. Your first stop is a 14th century pub located in Holborn District. Order a pint (own expense) and be ready to learn about the ‘hidey - holes’ (some of which still exist today). For your next pub enter the London’s most dangerous neighbourhood during the 18th century. Hear about the infamous history of the area blended with crimes and poverty. Then head to Covent Garden, known as ‘red light district’ of London during the 18th and 19th centuries. While enjoying your beer in a Victorian Reign pub, hear about ‘street walking’ activities that used to take a place in the neighbourhood, back in the history. Afterward, slip down to the Covent Garden Piazza, popular art centre of the time and host for the London’s biggest fruit and vegetable market. After a short walk, be ready to see one of the Charles Dickens’s favourite watering holes also famous for hosting bloody activities back in the days. Enjoy your final beverage while you are hearing more about the pub from your guide.
