Starting with the giant tree in Covent Garden and the huge baubles hanging from the roof of the piazza, your small group will take a 2-hour stroll around some of the prettiest lights in London.

Christmas tree outside Covent Garden piazza

You'll see Norway's famous Christmas tree in Trafalgar Square which was gifted to the city for our help during World War II, then walk past the bright lights in Waterloo Place and the festive boutiques down Bond Street and Burlington Arcade.

You'll stop outside the animated window displays in Fortnum & Mason, and then continue on to Piccadilly Circus to see the bright lights strung across Regent Street and Oxford Street, before ending with the contemporary decorations in Carnaby Street.

Along the way your friendly guide will share some seasonal stories about how the Victorian's re-invented Christmas, who really invented the Christmas card, and why turkeys wore boots on their way to market.
