We take a pre-arranged train into London (to take advantage of the lowest fares), and meet at a pre-arranged time and place for a guided tour of varying parts of London. Booking (and payment!) beforehand is required. The walks usually take a couple of hours.

Group 2 continued with live and Zoom visits to London throughout 2024. In March using Zoom, we looked at Street Art in London, with our wonderful Blue Badge Guide Amber. During the summer, we managed to avoid the downpours on two separate trips with Amber. We learned many historical facts and fascinating details about Kensington Gardens during our stroll through the gardens, afterwards visiting Kensington Palace ‘Untold Lives’ exhibition, which told the stories of those working in the Royal Palaces 300 years ago. Our second trip in Paddington, was equally interesting, after which we did a ‘Behind the Scenes’ Tour of the Royal Opera House, an eye opener on the logistics of putting on a performance.
Whilst our leaders John and Suzanne are in Tasmania we will continue to have Zoom trips until their return in the Spring.
Should you wish to join us on Zoom virtual trips or have the chance of joining a ‘live’ trip should places be available, please contact us by email so we can add you to our email circulation list.
