London Walking Tours

Brought to you by your friends at http://www.contexttravel.com.

Last year during my trip to London, I joined one of the walking tours there. I was absolutely enthralled and immersed with the history of the places we visited. And if I were to go back again (and I intend to), I'd absolutely, no questions asked, do the walking tours of London again for the following reasons: 1) it's a stress free way to learn about London; 2) I learned so much from the tour leaders and that everything I saw, I saw with intellect and meaning; and, 3) London walking tours is one of the best way to get to know the history and beauty of London itself. When I travel, I travel to get to know the country's people, history, and way-of-life. And if you are like me who's really interested and serious about the history, architecture, and cuisine of the places you visit, contexttravel.com could be the perfect place to find the London walking tours that suits your intellectual appetite.

This site isn't limited to just London but offers walk seminars at different well known cities including an offering for a Paris private tour.  How would you like to indulge in the "Art and Architecture of Gothic Paris" or get an art overload taking the "Louvre French Masters" semi-private walk? What really impressed me is that this site's walking seminars are led by scholars and specialists who designed these in-depth walking tours. What best way to learn more about the places you visit other than from the professionals who have researched, lectured and studied the place itself?

In the this site's walking tours London, Contexttravel.com offers Archeology Walks, Orientation Walks, History Walks and Family Program Walks. I am specifically interested in the "Westminster Abbey, Britain Through The Ages" which is under the History Walks. The site offers different types of walk seminars covering the different angles or characters of London or any other city you're visiting. What about you, what London walking tours capture your interest?
