What You Will Do
Hampstead is “London’s Favourite Village” and characterised by its iconic landmarks, natural heathland, historic homes, streets & vibrant cafe culture.
Just 3 miles from the city centre, Hampstead is one of the most beautiful parts of London & one that fully retains its village origins. Walking around the narrow lanes & vast open spaces, it's easy to forget you're in London at all.
Long favoured writers & artists, it's also home to many of the most famous celebrities in the world, you never know who you might bump into.
We will explore the quaint alleyways and splendid Georgian houses whilst learning something of the history and culture of Hampstead village and of some of the famous figures who lived and died here.

Great private tour of Hampstead

Stephen is full of knowledge and clearly has a passion for history. We thoroughly enjoyed our guided tour around our local area and learned many fascinating facts. We especially enjoyed finding out the origins of many well-used phrases. Would highly recommend!
