Most tours start at Tower Hill Tube station (turn left outside main entrance - meet by railings of Trinity Square gardens - by blue sign for St Olave's Church), though we are flexible on this.

SCHOOLS We offer exciting and educational day (and half-day) walking trips for KS1, KS2 and KS3. Come by coach or train. For large parties we can even arrange for a room to act as base. Tell us your needs and we will personalise a tour for you, including study sheets and visual aids. We cover Judaism, Jewish history and Jewish culture. Click here for more information.

Educational, entertaining strolls through Spitalfields and Whitechapel. Learn about and discover living reminders of the rich Jewish heritage of London's East End.

  • A keen student of Jewish history?
