If you\'re a James Bond fan or you are interested in espionage, this walking tour is an absolute must-do! It was led by an incredibly knowledgeable guide Ben. It was not only about locations from james bond films. We also learned a lot from the history of espionage that inspired James Bond series. Ben was excellent, he had knowledge of both the Bond films and the real-world espionage events that influenced them, it was truly impressive. It felt like we had our own personal MI6 agent leading us through the streets, unraveling the secrets and stories behind the films and the spy world 😊 Throughout the tour, we were treated to a wealth of fascinating information. From the Cold War era to modern intelligence techniques, Ben expertly wove historical facts into the Bond narrative. Our guide was not only knowledgeable but also incredibly involved and passionate about his job. It was evident that he loved sharing his expertise with us. We have been to 3 tours this summer, all of them fantastic, but this one is an absolute winner. Highly recommended!

The iconic Westminster Bridge and the Thames River have been the scene of several famous Bond boat chases. Here you’ll have the chance to learn about some of the film processes that brought them to life! Other memorable film locations you will visit include the National Gallery and the Old War Office, which featured in “Skyfall”, “License to Kill”, and “Octopussy”. Pass by the Corinthia Hotel, used as an inspiration for the MI6 headquarters in the James Bond comic strip and the location of the Skyfall press conference.

Take a few detours along the way to delve into the life of Bond’s creator, Ian Fleming, who spent the Second World War working in Naval Intelligence and built his own team of super spies along the way!
