“Double, double toil and trouble; fire burn and caldron bubble. Fillet of a fenny snake, in the caldron boil and bake…” William Shakespeare.
For thousands of years witches of all form and variety have walked the isles of Britain and been the topic of folklore and history. On this free walking tour we discover more about witches and in particular the witches of London. With the stories of bizarre practices and occurrences, anecdotes and a look at the unjust treatment of people thought to be witches from both witches and people who adored them or feared them, this two hour long historic guided tour is replete with a fascinating side of London’s history that is hardly ever mentioned.
Come and see London through different eyes with Wonders of London.

I Went on this tour last night all I can say is it was awesome, the guide Vincent was brilliant, very informative, and really knew his history, as he touched on the things I already knew, and some I didn’t, lol we walked from tower hill down past Tower of London to St. Paul’s along the river stopping at sites with the stories of history of their crimes, I would totally recommend they do other tours too, my next one is going to be haunted London for sure, then after that the many others they do, look them up on the net, there are so many and it’s all free, worth a night out and you can actually learn something too. Well done wonders of London 5 stars from me.
Just finished the witches tour and absolutely loved it. Vincent our guide was very knowledgeable and my mate and I were hanging on his every word.
