Discover charming Marylebone Village, known for its Georgian character and village-like atmosphere, with a guided tour by a knowledgeable local. 

The heart of the area is Marylebone High Street, a lively stretch filled with shops, restaurants, and cafes. As you explore, you'll uncover the area's rich history, from its mention in the Doomsday Book to its development into the Howard de Walden estate, with architecture ranging from churches to a former ragged school. The walk includes a visit to Marylebone Lane, known for its quaint shops and a famous family-run delicatessen, making it a destination for food, book, and fashion lovers alike.

The Elm Leaf

The tour begins at the new art installation, "The Elm Leaf," inspired by London's oldest surviving Elm tree, which still stands on Marylebone High Street. This tree miraculously survived both World War II and the deadly Elm tree disease of the 1970s.

Rosalind Vincent of Wide Eyed London guide you through Marylebone's hidden gems, plus treats attendees to special discounts and complimentary refreshments from some of the flagship stores and eateries located within Marylebone Village.

The tour takes place on Saturday 7 September and Saturday 5 October. You can book your spot here.
