Tours, Trails & Treasure Hunts in London

If your family wants to see London on foot rather than from a bus window, there are a couple of good options right in the centre. TOUR LONDRES runs guided walks for ages 5 to 15, starting with a free tip-based tour of the main landmarks, then paid themed trips like Harry Potter and the Beatles from £12. See Your City takes small groups on themed walks too, covering everything from Jack the Ripper to Harry Potter with a local guide. For something further out, a drive out to Chessington has The Gruffalo River Ride Adventure, a boat trip past gorillas, giraffes and meerkats with a bit of underwater life thrown in, open to any age from £32. For toddlers and anyone not up for a long walk, the Chessington boat ride is part of a full theme park day, with parking and food on site. For older kids who fancy a proper story woven into their sightseeing, the walking tours give more to talk about afterwards, and the free landmarks tour is a good place to start before paying for a themed one. Booking ahead is needed for all three.
