Luckily, this trail puts the fun and whimsy back in urban exploration, guiding you to hard to find gems with entertaining clues, then revealing the city's secrets. A modern way to break ancient ground!
Along the way you'll see: St Paul's Cathedral, the remains of the original Roman wall, the Old Bailey, a church whose bells used to chime to signal an execution, Postman's Park, Guildhall, Leadenhall Market, St Dunstan-in-the-East and the Tower of London. All this plus puzzles, pubs and plenty of surprises. For friends, families and colleagues looking to trace London from its origins right through to the modern day look no further than The City!

The clues require no prior knowledge and come with hints to make the experience something everyone can enjoy.
