Leadenhall Market: Turn Again Whittington!

Turn again, Whittington, Lord Mayor of London

Dick Whittington - a very poor, hungry boy, bullied and friendless. Or was he?

Visit Leadenhall Market with us to hear the real story of this beloved pantomime character. We'll uncover his roots, his career, his passions and his impact which is still felt today in the City of London and no more so than at the beautiful Leadenhall Market which may not have existed without him!

This is a limited - edition tour with few dates and limited tickets.

Thanks to financial support from Leadenhall Market, tickets are heavily subsidised.

Places must be booked in advance, we regret we are unable to accept onto the tour anyone who just turns up.  Full details and ticket booking via Eventbrite

 

 

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 

Our weekly walks have individual booking pages and earlier cut off times, please see the individual listing.  

New, limited edition walk on Wednesday evenings, for May only: the real story of Dick Whittington 

Some of our walks offer concession rates: valid for over 65s and students. 

All Eventbrite bookings have a booking fee.

If you're a member of an Arts Society or a U3A or other group we'd love to take you on a tour of the City. And if you're a company based in the City who'd like to organise a social event for your work colleagues, why not book walk with us?
