Product Info

We'll dive into the murky history of the square, when Covent Garden was a bustling market, full of incredible voices and characters.
We'll start in the heart of the square, exploring its architecture and the unspeakable secrets of some of the buildings. From there, we'll move on to the Theatre Royal Drury Lane, London's most haunted theater, populated by ghosts and lovers of the king.
We'll visit a Victorian puppet shop and then admire the Royal Opera House, where fires and illusions have given way to glamor and a good coffee.
At the end, if you want, you can draw a tarot card for a personalized final reflection.

We'll continue to Covent Garden Station, with its stories of greedy ghosts. Then we'll head to St Paul's Church, known as the actors' church, with its ghostly garden.

We'll wrap up the tour among the shelves of Watkins Books, the oldest esoteric bookstore in London, where they still sell tarot cards, forbidden texts, and a little bit of dreams.

Come and visit a London that hides in broad daylight—and that, just like some overly passionate actors, sometimes struggles to get off stage
