A relaxed walking tour exploring London’s most iconic landmarks along the Thames.
Join us for a walking tour through central London, designed to help you explore your new city, meet other students, and discover iconic landmarks along the River Thames.
This relaxed guided walk is split into three easy sections, so you can join for the full experience or drop in and out as needed.
We'll begin at The Griff and head south. Along the way we’ll pass St Katharine Docks and the historic Tower of London before crossing the iconic Tower Bridge for photos and river views.
Next, we'll head to Borough Market, one of London’s most famous food markets, for a spot of lunch. We’ll regroup before continuing the walk down the river.
From the waterfront, we'll walk past Shakespeare's Globe and the Tate Modern, heading towards the London Eye, passing street performers, book stalls, and views of the Thames along the way.
The tour finishes at Parliament Square, near the Houses of Parliament, Westminster Abbey and Big Ben, which you'll be free to explore at your leisure.
If this one's for you, make sure to meet us promptly at 10AM at the Griff Cafe.
Please wear appropriate footwear, bring any necessary medication and of course, a camera to document the day's adventure.
Water and weather appropriate clothes are strongly recommended.
