London Loo Tours
Not the Bog-Standard London Experience
Yes, you read that right! We are London's only walking tour company themed exclusively around the history of toilets and sanitation.
The Original London Loo Tour
Prepare to be immersed (metaphorically, that is!) in a world where the humble toilet becomes a portal to explore history, anthropology, art, architecture, identity, and of course, our sense of humour.
From the earliest latrines through to the future of flushing your guide will take you on a whirlwind tour through the history of Britain’s public toilets, with plenty of interesting sights and practical tips along the way. You’ll answer all the questions you never knew you had… How did the Romans wipe their bottoms? Was there really a man named Thomas Crapper? How long will you spend in the smallest room in a lifetime? And why do we even call it a loo?
It’s the perfect day out for anyone who likes to dive a bit deeper… lifelong Londoners and first time visitors alike! One thing is for sure: you may never think about a simple visit to the lavatory the same way again!

FAQ
How long is the tour?
Tours last between 1.5 and 2 hours depending on the walking pace of the group.
Where does the tour finish?
The tour finishes in the Covent Garden area. The exact ending location will be determined by the guide and is subject to change depending on a number of factors including crowds, road closures and the energy and interests of the group.
Is the tour suitable for children?
Guests of all ages are welcome on the tour, though parents should be aware that we do talk in depth about toilets and bodily functions, occasionally using words that wouldn't normally be heard around the dinner table.
*Who qualifies for a concession ticket?
We operate a concessions policy. Though traditionally concessions would be defined as children/students/over 60s we recognize there are people outside these brackets who might benefit from reduced price tickets, and we welcome guests to choose the price bracet that feels appropriate to their circumstances.
Is the tour cancelled if it's raining?
If we stopped for rain in London we'd never get anything done! The tour takes place in most weather conditions, and guests are advised to check the forecast and bring appropriate layers for the sometimes unpredictable British weather.
Tours are only cancelled in the event of a severe weather warning.
What is your refund policy?
Tickets purchased through our website are refundable up to 48 hours before the tour takes place. After this time tickets are non-refundable, but may be rescheduled to another date if you contact us before the tour.
Private Tours
Private tours start from £150 and can be booked at your convenience!
