What we’re about

If you love London, love history and love walking then come join Paul and Tim's Walks and Talks. Paul is an accredited guide, a lecturer who is passionate about sharing the history of London with others.

Tim is a historian, lecturer and author of a best selling guide to London (Walking London's History: 2000 years in 15 walks).

Together, we have been lecturing on London's history and taking people round this wonderful city for over ten years. We have worked with education institutes, museums, London clubs and groups and guided Londoners and tourists alike.


We offer high quality talks on London's history from Whitechapel to White City, from Boudicca to Virginia Woolf. We offer walks (never more than 20 people) to the hidden London where tourists rarely go, and tell stories that they don't hear. This group is for those who love their history but want to explore it in a non-scholarly fashion with friendly and relaxed people, hopefully sharing a meal, a drink and good conversation.


We are delighted to be adding some guest guides to the team. Oonagh has been leading walks for 6 years, after a career as an official at Westminster. Her interests include uncovering more of women’s hidden stories, and lost political and revolutionary movements in London.She's a qualified Clerkenwell and Islington Guide <https://ciga.org.uk/>;­, and Camden Guide <https://camdenguides.com/>;­ with several 5 star reviews on TripAdviser.
