Look Up London offers public weekend walks and bespoke private tours across the Capital. I specialise in walking tours for Londoners, getting people to see their city through fresh eyes and discover the hidden gems hiding in plain sight!
There are 13 different Look Up London public walks and they always run on Saturdays and Sundays. They are led by Katie unless otherwise stated.
Currently all public walks for 2023 are sold out but 2024 are now on sale. The calendar below reflects live availability. I share last-minute available tickets, the latest news and a weekly blog about London’s hidden history here.
