Da sapere su questa attività

Incontra la guida nel centro di Londra e parti per un tour a piedi attorno a Westminster, il centro amministrativo di Londra e la patria dello spionaggio britannico che fu oggetto di pesanti bombardamenti durante la Seconda Guerra Mondiale. Scopri come il personale governativo trovasse rifugio dalle bombe nei bunker sotto le strade di Westminster e ascolta le storie di Churchill e della sua leadership carismatica durante il Blitz e oltre. La guida conosce a fondo l'area di Londra, nonché la sua storia nella Seconda Guerra Mondiale.

Dopo aver passato i luoghi di interesse classici di Londra, come il 10 di Downing Street, il Parlamento, il Big Ben e l'Abbazia di Westminster, sosta presso il cenotafio, The Cenotaph, un famoso monumento ai caduti delle forze armate britanniche, per porgere il tuo omaggio ai caduti e quindi posare per le foto con la statua di Winston Churchill.

Quindi, saluta la guida e dirigiti sottoterra per esplorare in autonomia il bunker bellico delle Churchill War Rooms, un ufficio creato in gran fretta per servire come punto nevralgico del gabinetto di guerra britannico per tutta la durata della Seconda Guerra Mondiale.

La prima fermata all'interno del sito è il Churchill Museum, uno spazio espositivo interattivo dedicato al leader del tempo della guerra. Un esempio di storia incarnata, il museo ospita una varietà di oggetti appartenuti a Churchill, come sigari e abiti, nonché registrazioni audio dei suoi discorsi ispiratori del tempo di guerra. Ascolta fatti e aneddoti poco conosciuti della vita privata e pubblica del leader e scopri il "rapporto speciale" coltivato con il Presidente Roosevelt, un rapporto che ha cambiato il corso della storia.

Dopo aver visitato il museo, indossa le cuffie dell'audioguida in dotazione e procedi alla scoperta del resto delle camere di guerra. Il labirinto sotterraneo di bunker e corridoi era divenuto la sede del personale segreto di governo durante la guerra e molti di coloro che qui lavoravano non avevano occasione di vedere la luce del giorno. Scopri come vivevano isolati sottoterra e ascolta le conversazioni top-secret e le crisi di convivenza che scoppiavano nel quotidiano.

Il tempo da dedicare alle Churchill War Rooms è a tua scelta, ma molti visitatori trovano che 1,5 ore siano sufficienti.

My husband and I really enjoy WWII history. This was a fantastic tour in and around Westminster and Parliament square. The tour was easy to locate and the guide, Richard, was extremely knowledgeable and engaging (we actually had him for two tours!). The War Rooms are an experience all on there own and the benefit of doing the walking tour and admission is you’ll escape what is likely a lengthy queue no matter the time of day. Highly recommended for anyone interested in WWII history, Winston Churchill and even the basis of a lot of history surrounding parliament’s beginnings.

We had been told to visit the Churchill War Rooms upon our visit to London. We have had great success in previous trips booking tours through Viator and decided to add to the Churchill experience and book a tour, which included entry into the War Rooms and museum. Nathan was an excellent guide, very knowledgable and kept the group interested and entertained. We enjoyed this experience very much.

We really enjoyed the walking tour with Pepper. Found the starting point without any trouble. I really liked having the audio player to hear the information as we walked. The best was that Pepper gave us information about London, not just Churchill.

Although we are Churchill fans, we didn't realize the ENTIRE focus of this Westminster portion of this tour was ALL on Mr. Churchill and some statues in park. No access to even peek in any of the many historic structures.... really didn't need to pre-book with a tour group for the fabulous War Rooms.... that's an easy do-it-yourself.

Our guide, Josh, was not only knowledgeable but delightfully entertaining. We would request him again.

For some reason I thought this tour also included a tour inside Westminster Abbey, not just touring the outside areas of Westminster. It was very hot that day and some of the tour was on hard surfaces where the sun was blistering. The tour can't help the weather, it just made it very uncomfortable. Tour guide was good though:)

The very rainy cold 4/8/18 day did not diminish our 1pm tour from being outstanding. Our guide was undaunted as he took us around the area, pointing out all buildings, statues and especially all things Churchill. He clearly knows his city's political history and shared it well. He was open to questions, sharing information on the architecture and the activities in these important buildings. He gave us all the heads up we were needed for our entry into and tour of the Churchill War Rooms. This was a private entrance with no crowds. They tell quite a story and at the end of it all, we felt we had quite an impressive education about the period. This tour is packed with information and our guide was very good at providing both concise but important facts and details. A thoroughly enjoyable experience thanks to him!
