London

The Experience

Whether you're a lifelong Paddington fan or simply someone who loves discovering the charm of London's hidden gems, this tour offers something for everyone.

Pack your marmalade sandwiches and maybe an umbrella (if the weather is unkind), as you embark on a 2.5-hour walking tour led by a professional, English-speaking guide. The adventure starts at the iconic Paddington Station, designed by the legendary Isambard Kingdom Brunel. It's at this very station that Michael Bond’s beloved bear from Peru first caught the world’s heart in 1958, and it’s the perfect place to start your journey.

From there, you’ll stroll through the picturesque streets of West London, including the enchanting Little Venice, trendy Maida Vale, and the famous Notting Hill and Portobello Road. Along the way, your guide will take you to various filming locations from the Paddington films, while also sharing fascinating stories about the area’s history and famous figures like Alan Turing.

The tour ends at Alice’s Antiques (Mr. Gruber’s Antiques Shop from the films), where you can browse the charming collection of treasures. On weekends, you can explore Notting Hill’s antiques market and sample some of the best street food London has to offer.

This walking tour is the perfect gift for anyone who loves Paddington, history, or simply wants to see a side of London they’ve never seen before.
