Believe it or not but history is much more interesting than you think!

You thought history in school was boring because you were forced to memorise a bunch of dates. This tour aims to cure your dislike of history and have you look at it from a new perspective. When we look back, we see that we have learned so much from history on how to live, how to act, what to do and what not to do. Whether it was trial and error or just finally finding the education to learn and change, history has many fascinating things to look back on and ponder.

This tour aims at telling you about ten things we no longer do that we used to do before. Intrigued? Good! You should be! Of course, we will start our tour at the Tower of London, where we used to punish or imprison people. But our tour takes us beyond this, and we discover things we don’t eat, things we don’t wear, things we don’t say, and even things we don’t think!

This tour aims to present you with fascinating forgotten history of everyday life in London that you missed in school. Things your teacher didn’t tell you because they didn’t know, or things that you could never imagine that actually happened. From medical practices to going to the toilet, you will be so happy that you live in today’s world and not in the past!

Keeping in mind this tour is perfect for all ages, this tour is great for an afternoon of laughing and learning in equal measure. Follow your qualified tour guide as she leads you down the path of historic commonalities.
