London King's Cross Walking Tour: Homelessness Revisited

This was a wonderful, fascinating tour led brilliantly by Ben who showed us places we had never been although we have lived in London for 40 years. His knowledge and insights into hidden aspects of this part of London were really enlightening and reminded us that there is so much still to discover in this magnificent city. Thank you Ben for good organisation, clear pre tour communication and overall a fab experience. Would love to see a tour focusing on Clerkenwell and Greenwich too

Ben was a fantastic guide, taking us to places that you would just walk past and not know their history. I felt quite sad when the tour finished as I enjoyed it so much. I would highly recommend this tour and Unseen Tours to anyone.

Fantastic London Bridge Tour – Mysterious Alleys, Hidden Pathways tour with David, super insightful. Discovered many interesting stories about this part of London

The tour was fantastic! Probably the best tour I’ve ever been to! Ben, the tour guide, was very enthusiastic and entertaining the whole time. The combination of unseen places and unseen people is just perfect and this kind of experience is way more interesting than the main attractions in London that are quite similar from other countries - towers, museums and bridges.

The guide, Ben, was phenomenal. He was fun, included the crowd, and was great at Storytelling. Overall a great guide! I appreciate the mission of the firm and it really was a high-quality tour. Besides, I liked the focus on one part of the city and going in-depth into it. Also it was very entertaining.

Had the best time on the Kings Cross to Clerkenwell tour. Learned a lot, laughed a lot and saw a lot. Great idea to do it as a birthday party and bookending the walk with a pub visit worked really well. If we hadn’t had such a lovely guide in Ben this wouldn’t have been half as good. So a big thanks and a big tip winging its way to him today. A really great way to learn about homelessness in London against a backdrop of history. And a great way to give people a sense of purpose and dignity. Give it a go, tell your friends and tip your guide. 👍🏾👍🏾

Ben’s incredibly moving tour of Kings Cross to Clerkenwell had our group of London-dwellers truely travelling back in time in the footsteps of those who walked this way through the centuries, and those who command it today. Find out how internet cabling has been laid down following ancient byways of water and steel and get up close and personal to epic architecture old and new. Film and poetry references bounce out bringing this historic quarter to life, making sense of the architecture and ground underfoot in the beating pulse of revolution and the march of modernisation. Ben's insights are first class and the restaurant recommendations along the way are rare insider treasures. Thank you Ben, this was wonderful.

I had an amazing tour with Ben in King's Cross and Clerkenwell. It was wonderful!! Ben is so knowledgeable, passionate and funny. Thank you so much Ben!

Ben was fantastic. I learned lots on my trip about Kings X and the surrounding areas. He was super knowledgeable and interesting. A unique experience for a very worthwhile cause

A very fine tour around the King's Cross area. With a great insight into Londons development through time and the historical impact on it's architecture. The guide was a very warm and accommodating facilitator. Highly recommended.

Everything you'd want from an expert walking tour--AND real expertise and analysis from someone with lived experience and a very important vantage point you'd otherwise be likely to have no access to. I admire David, our tour guide, and his organization. Much respect to Unseen Tours--both as an "experience" and a creative political project.
