Break free from the crush and the crowds! Discover London with our user-friendly audio tours entirely at your own pace. You’ll save time, you’ll save money, you’ll see the sights and you’ll hear every word.

Actor and lover of London Tyler Butterworth is your guide on these easy-on-the-ear audio tours. Blending a fun and informative commentary with great music and sound effects, these tours bring you face to face with the London we all know and love, and also reveal some of the hidden gems you might easily miss.

What also makes these tours really useful is their total flexibility - they just slot right into your day. At roughly two hours each they free up your valuable time to do even more.

Simply follow the route on the app map and stop at each attraction to hear the commentary. Use the inbuilt GPS to track your progress along the route and alert you when you’re near attractions on the tour - or turn it off and activate the commentary when you wish.

Start when you want, stop when you want. Jump to the end if time is short, chill out for a long lunch and pick up your tour later if it isn’t! This is your London, your way.

Our tours include:

THE BEST OF LONDON: This is the best of London in a single no-time-to-waste walk, trimmed down, sharpened up and ready to go. Great if you want to see the sights but don’t want to take all day! Includes: Buckingham Palace, Covent Garden, Horse Guards, The London Eye, Big Ben and lots more!

BE QUEEN FOR A DAY: Leave your hum-drum life behind for an hour or two and become the Queen for a Day! Join us as we visit your royal parks and palaces your Majesty, your jewellers and wine merchants, your dress makers and your shoe makers. Everything from frocks to rocks, and from claret to cobblers! Enjoy the deferential, almost grovelling, commentary, the music, and the regal sound effects, and the bowing and scraping and fawning from us, the production team, that you so rightly deserve as Queen.

A SOUTH BANK STROLL: Starting at the fabulous Borough Food Market in Southwark, and arming ourselves with a coffee and cake, we wend our way along the traffic free South Bank of the River Thames, using it to unravel 2000 years of London’s colourful history. The Tate Modern, the Globe Theatre, Borough Market and The South Bank Centre are just some of the places we’ll discover.

SECRETS OF THE CITY: We start where London began, before twisting through the narrow old streets of the Square Mile. We hear all about the Fire of London, the Roman Market, a bridge decorated with severed heads and even Harry Potter, before winding up at the Bank of England with its vaults stuffed with gold.

Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
