WELCOME TO COUTOURS!

Below is a short description of all the types of tours and events we offer! Browse through and click any of the buttons to learn more!

Virtual Tours

We are known as specialists in informative and fun tours and for unusual ways to experience London in all its quirkiness however, during this time of limited travel, we are offering a series of virtual events that we think will be a bit of fun for you and your family, work colleagues and friends.

How do these virtual events work?

You book one of the events and you will receive a component part e.g. food and drink to accompany the event. Please click on one (or more) of the events below to learn more about it!

HERE ARE SOME OF OUR MOST POPULAR VIRTUAL TOURS:

THE DISTILLED
​HISTORY OF GIN
A virtual history -
including gin.
​
BRIGHT YOUNG THINGS TREASURE HUNT
A look at life of these socialites in the 1920's... and some of their games. 
THE GOLDEN AGE 
OF COCKTAILS
A retrospective look at the era of cocktails and how to make them.

PUBLIC TOURS


​​The tours on our calendar of events are lively and topical. Want to learn more about London’s spies or Winston Churchill, then we have the tour for you. Alternatively, take a look at a couple of fascinating parts of London as we delve into some interesting neighbourhoods. The High Class, Lowlifes’ tour of Mayfair and Soho or Hidden London are just the ticket. These will show you parts of London you may know or have heard of but we will go away from the crowds and head off into alleys and lanes that hold so much history.

You can book one place or a few places on these tours. The groups are small (until further notice, they will be for max. 6 to allow us to enjoy a tour at a safe distance and so your guide doesn’t need to shout at you!

HERE ARE SOME OF OUR MOST POPULAR PRIVATE TOURS:


HISTORY OF LONDON IN 4 DRINKS
A whistle-wetting walk through London's obsessions with tea, coffee, gin, and beer.

PRIVATE TOURS

Our private tours are perfect for small groups and we can even take larger groups by using headsets or another guide who will walk along with us but keeping us at a safe distance.

Love food and want to learn about what London has on offer? Coutours has a series of delicious tasting tours. We can visit markets, taste street food, lick our lips after eating London’s best sandwich (we may be a little biased!), slurp oysters or resist cheese - oh go on, just a little!

If you are a fan of a gin and tonic, beer or maybe tea and coffee are your thing, we have a tour called A History of London in Four Drinks which covers their fascinating history and how they have affected our capital. We also take gin and delve into its gritty and grimy past as well as see how it became the drink of naval officers, the middle classes and even members of the royal family!

HERE ARE SOME OF OUR MOST POPULAR PRIVATE TOURS:

THE HIGH CLASS / LOWLIFES' TOUR
A candid crossing of the social divide, from Mayfair’s high society to Soho’s slums.
​
THE SHOCKING
​EAST END
A down and dirty dive through the back alleys of Spitalfields and Brick Lane, once home to slums, criminals and misfits. 
THE
​CROWN
A regal tour through the best parts of London.
