Full Description
Begin with a guided back-stage tour through the breath-taking Emirates Stadium, home to Arsenal Football Club and including one of the best soccer museums in the UK. Then enjoy an insider’s tour through the back streets of the city to discover three of the oldest pubs in London. These incredible icons of the city are steeped in history and have been the scene of many a rousing debate between famous literary figures of the day including Samuel Johnson and Charles Dickens. Learn of the campaign to preserve both real ale and the community pub, and sample two different types of 'Craft' beer.
Emirates Stadium – home to Arsenal Football Club
Go behind the scenes at Arsenal Football Club and follow the history of the Club's formation in 1886 right through to the present day. Take your seat in the changing room, walk down the tunnel, sit in the dugout and imagine the roar of those 60,000 fans. The tour includes a visit to their unique museum packed with memorabilia.
Historic Pubs of London
There are few more quintessentially English experiences than enjoying a pint of ale in a centuries-old public house. This unique tour takes you to some of London's best - between them they have survived the Great Fire of London, Second World War bombs and post modernisation. The walls could certainly tell you stories:
1. Craft Beer Company:
Time for refreshments and where better than to try some traditional 'Craft Beer' at a local pub servicing traditionally brewed beer. A chance to sample two types of beer, and learn about the brewing process.
2. Ye Olde Cheshire Cheese:
Into the city of London to visit Ye Olde Cheshire Cheese dating back to 1538, rebuilt in 1667 after the Great Fire of London. It is said to have been a frequent haunt of Charles Dickens, who drew some of his characters from the pub's regular drinkers. See the notice listing the monarchs who have reigned during the pub's lifetime.
3. The Sherlock Holmes:
Here you can enjoy a drink and maybe a snack whilst enjoying the pub's great secret ... a complete recreation of Holmes and Watson's study and sitting room with a large collection of objects and photographs related to London’s most famous detective.
