Overview

This tour takes you through one of London's most picturesque Georgian villages. Known for inspiring some of Charles Dickens' most famous works, strict planning laws maintain its quaint atmosphere. Everything remains as it was when world-renowned artists, dashing highwaymen and political revolutionaries used to drink in its pubs, though the quaint cottages are now owned by today’s rich and famous.

Know More about this tour

Meet your guide at Highgate tube station in the afternoon, then set off through the pretty streets to begin your 2-hour walking tour. Widely considered among the most desirable corners of north London, Highgate is home to Georgian houses, cobbled streets, and centuries of rich history.

On your tour, admire traditional townhouses once resided in by luminaries such as A E Housman, Charles Dickens, J B Priestley, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, and Yehudi Menuhin.

Discover historic pubs dating back to centuries passed when bold highwaymen held up luxury carriages on dark nights and hear of the famous names like Lord Byron, and William Hogarth who wiled away the hours drinking in them.

Admire top local landmarks including Lauderdale House and enjoy sweeping views from the beautiful Waterlow Park. Then, pass through Highgate Cemetery where actors, politicians, spies and writers ranging from Karl Marx to Malcolm McLaren have found their resting place.
