“The Jews Who Came to London” Walk with Steve Levinson

Thursday, 26th June @ 10:30 am

Mosaic Culture Hub invites you to join London walks led by Steve Levinson, a qualified Institute of Tour Guiding Blue Badge Guide.

Join Steve at Guildhall Courtyard.  Nearest tube  Bank or Moorgate. £10 per head.

Each walk will take in a specific part of central London and will provide details of the area’s main points of interest taking in history, architecture, characters and events which give that area its own unique characteristics.

For safety reasons each walk will have limited numbers and will need to be pre-booked and paid for. See below.

The walks will usually start at 10.30am and take between 1 and a half  and 2 hours but the distances to be covered are not great and the routes will start and finish at/near a tube station.
