About this activity

Take a journey around the 15th century town of Greenwich located in the east end of London. Explore its dark past on this spooky guided walking tour and discover some of the terrifying stories of spectres and spooks that haunt the streets.

Start at the famous Cutty Sark ship, hear all of its history and what inspired the name from famed Poet, Robbie Burns. Walk the banks of the river Thames, which over the centuries welcomed lords, merchants, and pirates.

Learn the ghoulish history of the impressive Trafalgar pub that sits on the river Thames. Hear about the hitchhiker that vanishes into thin air before you reach their destination.
