Things to do When Hitler Took on London: Discover the Capital's Hidden WWII Story

This month marks the 80th anniversary of VE Day, the end of the Second World War in Europe, making now the perfect time to see some of London's most iconic landmarks like Big Ben and St Paul's Cathedral while hearing about their danger-ridden past. Today, it's hard to imagine the destruction, but WW2 transformed the British capital into a battlefield - over a million buildings suffered bomb damage, and 1 in every 6 Londoners was made homeless. How did the people living through it shelter from Nazi bombers and flying rockets? What did they do to let off steam? Where did the government wage war from? And how did Londoners choose to rebuild their war-torn city once victory was won? This tour will answer these questions and more, introducing you to the brave man who drove an unexploded bomb out of central London, the best underground station to head to during an air raid, and Winston Churchill's secret toilet. We'll make 15+ stops in Westminster, along the river and Fleet Street, concluding at St. Paul's. This tour is perfect for people who are curious about history, want to explore a wider area of London, and enjoy a good walk Comfy shoes and a big breakfast beforehand are a must!
