Roam in the footsteps of the ancients...and the medievals, and the Victorians, and pretty much all of London’s inhabitants through history. Become a part of this city’s tradition. This tour has you walking the literal path where the Romans established London’s boundary two thousand years ago. The wall that surrounded the ancient city then stood for millennium, affecting decisions and development right up to today. You don’t have to be a history geek to get excited about the lives of people in the past. It’s so easy to get pulled into the adventures of soldiers, kings and commoners alike. During this walk you will view the fortifications that the Romans first built, and that the Normans used as their foundations. You’ll step right up to the walls that English royalty relied on for centuries to protect and defend their power base. You’ll touch the very stones that fortified the city of London throughout time. And your adventure will add you to the list of characters in the wall’s long history. So step right up....to the wall, and to your place in the story!
