The Cloak and Dagger Tour

We'll turn even the most enduring sceptic into a lover of walking tours!

We can’t give too much away, but we guarantee this is one of the most unique ways to experience attractions in London.

Get yourself a drink of courage at The George Inn before we go for a walk through the dark streets of Southwark, London and encounter seedy characters lurking around every corner on the way:

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely brilliant & entertaining!
“Booked this tour for my birthday not really knowing if it was "my thing" but absolutely loved every minute of it!! The host was brilliant and meeting characters along the way made it an adventure! Was in a small group of 13 which was perfect 😊 and the host brought us all in! Laughed, learnt and lurked around the streets of London, and saw a totally different side to the city.. wouldn't hesitate to recommend 👌” - Sarah_T, Nov 2022 (Viator)

The Halloween Gala awaits your arrival with Great Music, Knightly Duels and the Rising Dead, haunting the George!

Sit down cosily with a nice ale or wine and listen to the amazing sounds of Pagan Folk Band Perkelt.

The music of PerKelt draws on inspiration from paganism of all kinds. Their songs often tell stories from the realm of magic and nature, blending together the upbeat “engine” of drums and guitars, their trademark unrivalled duels of fiddle and recorders with haunting pagan vocals.

It’s hard to explain…and amazing to experience! You’ll just have to come and witness it for yourself.

PerKelt will be providing the soundtrack to an evening of Halloween Festivities at The George Inn!

Cheer for your favourite fighter in a Knightly duel to the death and hope those ghastly ghosts won’t get you when you go to sleep in the night…

Join us at The George Inn, Southwark 27th October from 6pm onwards

Casting Call!!!! For Actor and Tour Guide

Actor:

The role of the actor will be to take on a number of diverse characters from different backgrounds and portray them in an historically accurate manner. Comedy is used with our tour and characters as a lot of the history is very grim. A good sense of comedy performance as well as character portrayal will be needed as well as improvisational skills in character as customers will on occasion interact in conversation.

Tour Guide:
Walking tour guiding experience would be an advantage. The tour guide will be in full costume and will be portraying a historical character while leading the group, so a good ability to stay in character will be essential as will, improvisational skills and handling groups. The tours themselves are scripted in detail as well as cliff notes and research links to delve deeper into the knowledge for the history we explore. All Tour guides will start as actors on the tour for a short period so as to to get to better grips with the style of performance for the characters and better familiarise themselves with the subjects of history we explore. Full training will be provided. The guide will be paid £15ph plus tips and commission bonuses.

What happened today in days of yore?

On October 2nd 1789, George Washington presented the Bill of Rights to for ratification. While these obviously include the famous 1st and 5th Amendment, as well as the controversial 2nd, there are some amendments which go underappreciated. The 3rd Amendment, for example, protects the from having their homes seized by the , and with good reason: the army made a habit of squatting in residential homes all throughout the revolutionary , a bit like AirBnB except with a gun in your face instead of money.

Today also marks the 71st of little Charlie Brown, known formerly in the comic "Li'l Folks" before author Charles Schulz decided that " " rolled off the tongue a lot better.

And in 1535, explorer Jacques Cartier discovers the peaks of Mount (well, discovers them for the Europeans at least!), whose name would later be squished together into what we now know as . Vive le Québec!

or just Alexander the Great defeated King Darius III of at the battle of Gaugamela, cementing his conquest over the region. After a foray into , his army got fed up of taking over the world and asked to go home, to which Alexander reluctantly agreed.
