"If you wish to have a just notion of the magnitude of this great city you must not be satisfied with seeing its great streets and squares but must survey the innumerable little lanes and courts." Dr Samuel Johnson (1709-1784)

Follow in Dr Johnson's footsteps and you'll explore a myriad of alleyways where medieval churches and historic pubs jostle with modern skyscrapers that are icons of the world's greatest financial district.

Well-known sights include St. Paul's Cathedral, the Tower of London, the 'Gherkin' and the Bank of England but be prepared for a few surprises away from the hustle and bustle. This tour is best enjoyed Monday-Friday when the area is alive with the cut and thrust of daily working life.

London's South Bank offers amazing variety. Somehow a cathedral, prison, former power station, concert hall, open-air theatre, tall ship, Ferris wheel and fruit and vegetable market all happily coexist. Perfect for exploring and top views across the river too.

"Architecture aims at eternity." Sir Christopher Wren (1632-1723)

From Art Deco to industrial and 1950s concrete to modern steel, plus ten bridges that are as diverse in design as the traffic that travels across and beneath them. The London Eye, Tate Modern and Tower Bridge only begin to scratch the surface of what's worth seeing. Experience much more on the London South Bank Mystery Tour.

The West End is the centre of London's shopping, cultural entertainment and restaurant scene. An intriguing mix of famous landmarks, theatres, fashion, museums, music venues and tourist souvenirs.

"The man who can dominate a London dinner table can dominate the world"
Oscar Wilde (1854-1900)

Sadly, there's little time to stop at the Michelin-star restaurants in the West End where you could test Wilde's theory, but the Mystery Tour might just help you stumble across some dinner options for later.

Classic sights en route include the Houses of Parliament, Buckingham Palace, and Westminster Abbey but you could also find yourself scratching your head in theatreland, Chinatown and Covent Garden. An eclectic mix of clues in the eclectic West End.
