Sights and Bites of Royal Greenwich Walking Tour with Full Day Acess

Just a hop, skip and a jump by boat or train from central London, the beautiful, riverside Royal Borough of Greenwich is a highlight of any trip to the capital. Lose all sense of time as you dive into the extraordinary history of this UNESCO world heritage site, the centre of the world for astronomy, trade and map-making and fuel your experience with regular stops for sweet treats and drinks. 

Meet your fun, local guide on the pier and marvel at London’s gem, the Cutty Sark, the last surviving tea clipper in the country. Find out about her exciting adventures rushing crops of tea back from China and what made her one of the fastest boats of her age. 

Head to the top foodie location, Greenwich Market, to try a delicious, sweet treat with sugar, spice and all things nice. 

Wind through the village’s picturesque streets and stop into a local artisan hangout for a first class hot chocolate and mouthwatering handmade chocolates. Breathe in the majesty of the Greenwich Park as you walk to the Royal Observatory for one of the best views of London’s skyline. Stand over the Greenwich Meridian Line, longitude zero, from which all distances east and west are measured. 

Walk in the footsteps of British monarchs, generals and, more recently film stars, at Christopher Wren’s opulent Old Royal Naval College, home to the Painted Hall, Britain’s answer to the Sistine Chapel. Discover how this iconic setting has acted as a backdrop for countless films and tv series, including 007’s Skyfall, The King’s Speech and The Crown. 

Your guided tour ends with a refreshing cup of tea, soft drink or a half pint of locally brewed beer. You are then free to access to the interior with your day ticket.
