City Garden Walks

Discovering the gardens of the City of London is a rewarding experience for any inquisitive person but they need to be explored on foot if the joys of discovery and involvement are to be fully appreciated.

Secret gardens, historic burial grounds and modern architectural spaces overflow with trees, shrubs, herbaceous plants and colourful bedding schemes, all thriving in the warmth of the City.

City Garden Walks run a programme of regular walks for which you need to book. They can also arrange a group walk on a day and time of your choosing.

All of the guides are members of the City of London Guide Lecturers Association, accredited by the Institute of Tourist Guiding and have qualified further in the history and horticulture of the City of London gardens.

For more information and to book your place visit the City Garden Walks website  

We offer daily, weekly and monthly walks around the City of London. 

Our daily walks run from the City Information Centre, just south of St Paul's. You need to book via Eventbrite to secure you place. Note: the cut-off time for booking our daily walks is 21:00hrs the night before. If we don't have any bookings then the walk will not take place. Read our policy on Refunds. Our weekly walks have individual booking pages and earlier cut-off times, please see the individual listing or download our Daily walks in the City of London leaflet. 

Private tours

If you'd like to organise your own walk, lecture or a virtual tour, then please use our Find a Guide section. If you're a member of an Arts Society or a U3A, a school or another group we'd love to take you on a tour of the City. Or if you're a company based in the City who'd like to organise a social event for your work colleagues, then contact one of our qualified guides, who can put together an evening walk for you.

If you've been on a guided walk with us recently we'd love to hear from you. Why not leave a review on our TripAdvisor page? We've been awarded TripAdvisor's Travellers' Choice for 2023 and 2024!
