Overview
Join us on a serene Sunday bike tour through London's quiet streets, uncovering its historical tapestry. Our route takes you to both famous landmarks and hidden corners of the city. Cycle through areas once roamed by pirates in Wapping, alongside the remnants of London's Roman wall, and over the majestic Tower Bridge. You'll get a close-up view of St. Paul's Cathedral and visit locations from the enchanting world of Harry Potter. This tour offers more than just sightseeing; it's an opportunity to experience the juxtaposition of London's ancient ruins, historic pubs, and modern architectural feats.

John Roupel reclaimed marshy land and named the streets after his family. Postmen's confusion led to name changes. The area almost burned down in 1829, prompting fire insurance reminders. Notice plaques on houses – without one, private firefighters would let your house burn. Despite WWII bombings, these streets remain.

Lovely bike tour
Published on Sep, 2024
Lovely bikes and route. Everything safe, exciting historical facts. The pub stop had some tasty fries. Would recommend this eastern districts tour in addition to Westminster.
Wonderful Tour of Lesser Known Sites
Published on Sep, 2024
Katie provided us with an excellent tour. We've been to London before and have seen the major attractions, and she showed us some of the less touristy areas and the stories behind them. Would definitely recommend for anyone that wants to see some lesser known spots.
Also, it's a very flat tour. Not difficult at all.
Great midday bike tour
Published on Aug, 2024
We had a small group of four on our tour with Katie. It was a pleasant surprise to have a small group and it definitely helped navigate some of the more crowded areas. We navigated around some popular sights and many hidden gems we wouldn’t have found on our own. Our tour did go from 10:30-2ish and my only suggestion for riders would be to get a large breakfast before the tour. Or adding a market stop or making sure we have time to get lunch at the pub on the tour would be a nice option.
Great Tour!

Excellent tour and lots of learning about the City of London with a really knowledgeable guide. Thousands of years of history brought to life in an easy going way.
A fantastic way to explore off the beaten track
Published on Aug, 2024
This bike tour is a fantastic way to explore and learn about London sites. We've been on many tours of London, including on bikes, but we still learned a lot more and had great fun with our excellent guide, Luke. We would thoroughly recommend a tour with Tally-Ho.
