Does venturing into the centre of town during the Christmas period get your toes curling? If so then this is the tour for you!

Come and step off of the beaten track and explore some lesser known facts about Christmas traditions in London

Did the Romans invent Christmas as we know it?

Gain an in-depth insight into the guilds that rule the city of London and learn all about a bizarre Christmas tradition that stretches back over 700 years!

What were Charles Dicken's less than charitable motives for writing a Christmas Carol?

Learn more about the real-life character that Ebeneezer Scrooge was based on.

Who invented the first ice rink?

And just what the hell was a fuddling tent?

Come and find out the answers to all of these bizarre questions and more on the most peculiar Christmas tour this year.

It gets better... You will get to ponder your new found knowledge over a pint or two along the way, as you get the opportunity to stop in some of the historical pubs the route has to offer.

There will also be a quiz running throughout the evening with a bottle of festive fizz for the winner (no phones allowed!).
