About
This is a private tour for your group only!!! The Naughty London tour is all about grime, debauched activities and down right filth! We LOVE all the nastiness and grossosity that London has created up over the last few decades. Our most famous and popular London walking tour is set around the Tudor era in the time of a fat, grumpy and corrupt King and his bishops. Those living south of the river Thames live in squalor and filth in what was the Las Vegas of it's day full of every single kind of vice you could ever want!
