Description
Explore London on foot with these wonderful and insightful routes. Plan your time with the unique bird's-eye view illustrations that capture the spirit of this amazing city.
Following these walks is like being shown around the capital by an exceptionally knowledgeable friend. They're fun and they'll help you fit it all together. And you'll discover plenty of interesting things you never knew about the city along the way.
* Easy to find the way - the routes are shown on unique aerial-view maps giving you a detailed street layout as well as the look of your surroundings so you can really get your bearings.
* Friendly, accessible information - the maps are supported by personal insights and advice, including food, drink and shopping along the way. We'll introduce you to all the must-see areas.
* Most of the routes take about an hour - but if you're planning to fit all the sightseeing in as well then allow two to three hours. And if you want to make it a longer expedition it's easy to interlink the routes to make a day of it.
Discover London on foot with this inspiration guide and unique bird's-eye view maps and illustrations.

Duncan Petersen travel guides are the icing on the cake: enjoyable, and necessary... the key to experiences you would otherwise never enjoy. And we present those experiences in imaginative, often unique formats.
Our flagship series, the Charming Small Hotel Guides, reveal places to stay that are more than just a bed for the night - they are an experience for which you'd travel miles out of your way. No hotel pays for an entry, so you get an honest, balanced review - no compliments for cash.
We also publish On Foot Guides which are our city walks guide series. It's the only series to show walks on beautiful bird's-eye mapping, showing the buildings as well as the street plan. So you experience the city as it really looks, and in depth.
Our In a Box walks series is also innovative: the walks are on cards packed in a box. Take one out, put it in the plastic sleeve and off you go - each card has full directions, a map plus things to see along the way. The lightest possible walking guide, much more convenient than a book or a hand-held device.
In addition to all this, we also The Craft Gin Guide, the key to enjoying the tide of new small batch gins and their distilleries; and The Micropub Guide, featuring the new wave of pubs that specialize in cask-conditioned real ale.
Duncan Petersen usually acts as the 'author' of its own guides, helped by a team of contributors outside and inside the office. Perhaps our best-known contributor is hotel critic and travel writer Fiona Duncan, wife of the publisher Andrew Duncan and general editor of the Charming Small Hotel Guides series.
