Skip the tour bus. Lace up and see more of London in one run than most visitors see in a day.
Most visitors to London spend hours on hop-on-hop-off buses, queuing at attractions, or walking slowly between landmarks. There's a better way. On a 10km running tour, you can see 11 of London's most iconic sites in just 90 minutes - and get a workout in the process.
Starting from Trafalgar Square, the route takes you on a loop through the heart of London. Here's what you'll see:
Walking this route would take 3-4 hours. On a bus, you'd see it through a window with 40 other tourists. Running it takes 90 minutes, you're in the fresh air, you stop for photos at the best spots, and you cover ground that's impossible to reach by vehicle - through parks, along quiet paths, past hidden viewpoints.
Not at all. The pace is set entirely by you. Whether you're a 5-minute-mile runner or a casual jogger, the route works. We build in photo stops at the key landmarks, so you're never just running past things - you're experiencing them.
Early morning is magical. The streets are quiet, the light is beautiful, and you'll have landmarks like Buckingham Palace almost to yourself. You might even catch the Household Cavalry exercising their horses along the Mall before the crowds arrive. But the route works at any time. We offer morning, afternoon and evening slots.
Our Iconic London Running Tour covers this exact route with a local guide, digital photos, and pace tailored to you. From just £40.
