If you’re looking for something different to do with your teenagers on your family days out, or just looking for an alternative to the ordinary sightseeing tours, then join The Cloak and Dagger Tour for an immersive experience like no other. Our history tours run most days Tuesday - Sunday evenings, but booking a private tour at a convenient time for you is also possible.
Walking Through History
With so many things to do in London a city walking tour is a great way to experience a specific area of London, and a night tour like The Cloak and Dagger Tour is a great way to soak in the atmosphere of London’s nightlife, without getting too involved. This tour truly is an immersive experience. Although you’re walking through the streets of modern London, you will occasionally meet characters from the history we explore, allowing you to feel like you’re truly walking through history on this one-of-a-kind London evening tour.
History and Improv
The Cloak and Dagger Tour is a history tour with improv. Although not quite a historic pub crawl, we begin our journey at The George Inn, by London Bridge, one of the oldest pubs in London. Here you will be met by your guide, in full costume, who will stay in character throughout the experience. During this unique history tour, exploring the alternative, horrible sides of history (not the glitz and glamour of Westminster or Buckingham Palace), the guide will occasionally be interrupted by real life figures from history, allowing for hilarious bouts of improv, to lighten the dark subject matters we deal with, as you suddenly find yourself in the midst of an impromptu street performance. As you’re looking for things to do in London, know that the guides on The Cloak and Dagger Tour’s knowledge of forensic science coupled with the atmosphere of Southwark, London, could make you want to bring your anti sickness tablets along for the evening.
Key Highlights of the Tour
Although you will pass many historical pubs and well-known sites on The Cloak and Dagger Tour, the true highlight of the tour is the immersive experience we provide. Spending the evening in the company of people re-emerged from the Middle Ages, listening to their personal stories, and being able to ask them questions, allows for a better understanding of the conditions of the time than any film, tv show or story you will find in any classic literature. Another highlight of the tour is the limited number of guest spaces. We guarantee small groups, making sure everyone can hear and receive a personal experience. This history tour is not inundated by coaches full of large tourist groups.
Who is this Tour For?
This tour is for anyone who likes to think for themselves. We encourage questions from our guests, and will also be asking our guests questions, encouraging you to actively engage with the history we’re exploring. So if you like to keep your mind busy with sudokus and puzzles while listening to history podcasts, The Cloak and Dagger Tour is one of the few things to do in London, that in some way combines all of these things.
