You step off the coach and the Thames greets you with a low, persistent murmur, its current daring you to walk along its banks. Over eight days this programme pairs classroom hours with a curated route through London’s living history: Roman walls and bridges, Wren’s St Paul’s dome, the gilded urn of the Monument and the glass capsules of the London Eye.
