About This Event

This guided tour of the London riverside departs from the City of London Information Centre. The walk explores ancient wharves, lost lanes and dark houses to examine the river's impact. Tickets cost between £15.34 and £22.38.

Enjoy a summer evening walk in London. Explore lost lanes, ancient wharves, and dark houses whilst learning about the river's impact.

Meet your guide and set off on a journey through time. Learn about the Thames, the lifeblood of London for two millennia. Discover how the river has been at the epicenter of trade, commerce, innovative engineering, and empire.

Hear stories of how it has witnessed fire, plague, and invasion, and how it has seen kings newly crowned and mayors newly sworn in. Learn about the tragedies of war and celebrations of victories that have shaped this great metropolis.

Stroll along the riverside and hear about the river's history, from a Roman settlement to a wibbly wobbly bridge. Discover lost lanes, ancient wharves, dark houses, stews, and fish. Learn about powerful medieval merchant guilds, huge pageants, and jousting knights on a bridge of houses and shops that spanned the Thames for 600 years.

Explore the roots of the river, its architecture, and the major events that shaped not only its embankment but London and beyond.
