We’re delighted that three of our walks are part of Open House 2021 (Slavery and the City, A River’s Tale & Order and Disorder).  These walks are now fully booked, so why not join us on one of our regular Walks. In the meantime, here our Top 5 Picks in the City of London which you can visit during Open House:
