In the Overview, an engaging introduction reveals essential background information on London's culture, geography, and lifestyle, plus the lowdown on food, drink, shopping, entertainment, and local history. This provides all the background information needed to set the walks and tours in context.
The Walks and Tours section features 20 irresistible self-guided routes, from the traditional big royal sights, and the attractions of the National Galleries, Covent Garden and Soho, to the historic City of London and the vibrant South Bank, with trips further afield to leafy Hampstead and maritime Greenwich.

Each of the tours has a clear, easy-to-follow map, hand-picked places to eat and drink en route, great insider tips and informative feature boxes. All this makes it simple for the reader to find the perfect tour for the time they have to spare.
The final section of the book is the Directory, incorporating a user-friendly, fact-packed A to Z of practical information, plus select hotel, restaurant and nightlife listings, which will lead the reader to the best that London has to offer.
