Despre activitate
Cut to AD 43, witness the Romans marching into London through your time machine, the black heritage cab. You're advised to charge your imagination batteries overnight, to view the special effects with clarity.
History lovers be prepared with your questions, the tour guide is a keen Londoner and historian. Dare to peek into the ‘Dead Man’s Hole’. Enjoy (or endure) the Execution site on Tower Hill and smirk at the origin of that well-used phrase ‘Can I hang with you?’ Old Roman Wall to Roman Amphitheatre, we ensure drama never ceases at the World Heritage Site of The Tower of London.
Get ‘hung, drawn and quartered’ in the tiny little medieval streets from London’s less glamorous past. Drift into the stories of the ‘Great Fire of London’, ‘Braveheart’, Body Snatchers, Gallows of Old Newgate Prison and the World famous Criminal Courts of Justice – The Old Bailey…we’ll keep ‘em coming. Till you’re ready to join the history club like the rest of us.
