Is this for you?
Who it's for
Ghost-story fans, couples and friends who like a puzzle get a supernatural casefile to solve along the Strand, the Embankment and Westminster Bridge, with stops at Cleopatra's Needle, Somerset House, Waterloo Bridge and the old Necropolis Railway. Allow around five hours for the 4 km loop from Temple Station. If you want a short stroll, a live guide to swap tales with, or something gentle for young children, choose a lighter walk.
