Overview

From medieval murders to modern-day financial scandals, the City of London has seen it all. On this tour, we'll wander down alleyways and stop by famous execution sites while exploring the shocking history of the Square Mile.

Along the way, we'll discover the real-life "walk of shame" – the inspiration behind that scene in Game of Thrones; raise a glass to history's dodgiest doctor; and step back in time at the City's most notorious prison.

City Boat Tours wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through City Boat Tours over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
