More reviewsThe London Mystical Tour was the best tour I did so far :) Arjun is such a kind guide and seems to be born as an encyclopaedia cause he could tell a well researched, profound story to everything we were interested in on the way. What stuck out to me as well, has been his great passion and interest in the content of the tour. I enjoyed to learn the meaning and background of commonly used symbols in buildings and recognize them anywhere else in architecture and art now :)) read less

This tour gave me so much to think about and I found it so fun to see that I have lived in London all my life and not known some of these exciting and interesting facts about the history of London. The places we went where very beautiful and I recommend this tour. The tour guide was also so nice and if you had a question he would almost always know the answer! Truly great experience. I can't wait to go on the second tour. ✨✨

He was very kind and incredibly knowledgeable - it was clear how much effort and time that he put into his tour and researching the subjects! For me, this was a perfect tour, as Arjun was happy to answer questions and humor thoughts I had about the topics of the tour, and in moments where I didn't know anything, he regailed us with informative history on the subject, parallels in the world and more! I strongly recommend this tour to anyone interested in the subjects covered and further recommend Arjun as a guide for any tour that he offers.

More reviewsI booked this tour with Arjun because I wanted to learn more about the myths and legends that London and the city of London rest on. I’m happy to share that my expectations were even exceeded. I was the only one that booked the tour on this day so Arjun basically took me on a private tour through all of the stations with some extra details and discussions. I highly recommend! read less Fritz1/01/1970His knowledge was extensive on esoteric City of London Wow! Arjun didn't fail to deliver.

His knowledge was extensive on esoteric City of London, I could tell a lot of research had gone into it. I felt a sense of stepping back in time and adventuring through history.

Full of iconography, our guide was very knowledgeable and gave us lots of interesting facts & perspectives on history & the events that makes London City what it is today. We went on a Sunday, two stops on the journey were closed but this was made up in extra time at other sites and images provided of the closed venues. Overall, very enjoyable! read less Julie4/23/2024 - Dragons are everywhere ... if you know where to look!

Arjul was an exceptional guide, combining his deep knowledge with an engaging storytelling style that made the city’s past feel alive.
What stood out the most was the way Arjul encouraged us to notice the small, often overlooked details—each one holding its own story or significance. His ability to weave together history and mystery was both fascinating and inspiring.
The tour offered a perfect mix of insight and intrigue, leaving us with a newfound appreciation for London. If you’re looking for a guide who will open your eyes to the city in a completely new way, we highly recommend this tour. read less D.

The tour guide took us through an in depth history of the City of London teaching us several things I hadn't known before, which was intriguing. The tour was conducted as if the guide was telling a story, rather than just reciting historical information. The sights themselves were for the most part easy on the eye and full of history, including places such as the guildhall art gallery and st Lawrence jewry church. We concluded at the bank of England where the guide explained in depth the symbolism of the twelve ornate lampposts in the square, each one representing one of the twelve most important ancient guilds of the City. Would highly recommend! read less Nico7/01/2024 - A new persepctive on London but to sites rich in history and symbolism. Arjun led a fantastic tour.
