90 Minutes
Explore Greenwich’s magisterial and its seedy sides, and hear about its role in British architecture, science and politics on this fascinating public walking tour.
Greenwich was the ceremonial entrance to the capital from the river for centuries. It has some of the world's most impressive architecture, while maintaining the feel of a village stuck in a great metropolis.
For those familiar with this part of London this is a chance to deepen your knowledge and find out about the cultural background to some iconic and less well-known buildings.
For those who are new to Greenwich, this walk will enable you to fully immerse yourself in its rich history in world-class surroundings.
Suitable for all age groups. Please note all children must be accompanied by an adult.
