An alternative take on London
We started this tour to show people a different side of London, away from all of the usual postcard attractions.
East End And Street Art Tour
Starts every Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Sunday outside Liverpool Street Station at 15:00
Discover London’s most creative and culturally diverse area. The East End is the bohemian heart of London, as famous now for its booming street art scene, fashion boutiques and curry houses as it once was infamous for its poverty, violence and gangsters. You’ll see work by street artists, including Banksy (and many others less well known), hear about the eccentric characters and waves of immigration that have shaped this area and hopefully get a feel for what makes this such an enduringly vibrant part of London. The tour takes about two hours.
TICKETS £12 online / £14 if purchased at the start of the tour. For children aged 6 to 15 years, tickets are £10 and £12 respectively.
Highlights
• Street art by famous street artists such as Banksy
• Brick Lane
• Spitalfields Market
• History of the different cultures that
have shaped the area
