Description
Join the Mary Poppins Tour of London and explore on foot a magical, fun-packed journey through the film locations and inspirations that brought everyone’s favourite flying nanny to life. Beginning in the historic heart of the City of London near Cannon Street, this practically perfect walking tour invites you to step straight into the enchanting world of Mary Poppins and Mary Poppins Returns.
Learn about the making of both films, the fascinating background to P. L. Travers’ beloved stories, and how London became such an integral part of the magic. Test your Mary Poppins knowledge along the way – can you speak a little Leery? You’ll even pick up a few memorable catchphrases from the films to charm your friends and family when you return home.
It may sound a bit bombastic, but it’s time to trip the light fantastic. Grab your carpet bag and explore the atmospheric streets of the City of London as you visit locations featured in Mary Poppins Returns, including those seen in the energetic and joyful “Trip a Little Light Fantastic” sequence. You’ll also walk past the iconic corner steps where the Bird Woman sits, where you can hum “Feed the Birds” and pause for a truly magical photograph.
No tour about a flying nanny would be complete without heading skyward. Along the way, you’ll take a lift to capture spectacular rooftop views across London, including the majestic dome of St Paul’s Cathedral – a breathtaking sight that feels straight out of the film.
You’ll also discover key inspirational locations from the original stories, including the Bank of England, the Royal Exchange and streets that helped shape the world of Cherry Tree Lane. With each step, your guide will share fascinating trivia, behind-the-scenes facts and historical insights, cleverly blending fiction and reality.
Your 2-hour journey will conclude in the wonderfully atmospheric surroundings of Covent Garden, near the location of Topsy’s quirky shop and the enchanting Goodwin Court – a hidden, old-world alley that feels lifted from another time. By the end of the tour, you’ll be singing in the streets and feeling inspired to fly home and watch the film all over again.
Suitable for little legs and big imaginations, this delightfully charming tour is, quite simply, supercalifragilisticexpialidocious.
