Spies, Traitors & the Cold War: Secret London Free Tour

Delve into the hidden side of London with this tour of spies, traitors and the Cold War, where reality overcomes fiction. For 1.5 hours we will tour Westminster to discover how the United Kingdom and the Soviet Union fought a silent war after World War II.

We will start next to St. James's Park, the former home of MI6, and visit places where some of the most astonishing intelligence operations of the 20th century took place. From hotels where agents met in secret to offices where British employees betrayed their country, you'll learn real stories that seem straight out of a John le Carré novel.

You will discover espionage techniques such as "dead drops", meetings in pubs or networks of informants infiltrated into the heart of power. You will also meet key figures such as Kim Philby and the Cambridge Five, responsible for major leaks, and the case of Oleg Gordievsky, the double agent who helped prevent a possible nuclear war.

An essential tour to understand how decisions in the shadows changed history.
