London Guided Walks

Status:Active, open to new members
Leader:
Venue: Out And About

We have two Blue Badge Guides, Gavin Webb and Diane Burstein, who act as our guides leading a range of educational walks through London.

Gavin has led our walks since the N&D u3a first started. Diane is a colleague of Gavin’s and says she loves to show both visitors and Londoners the hidden corners, courtyards, alleyways and lesser-known sites of her native city.

Each walk meets at 10.35am for a prompt start at 10.45am and generally the walks last about 2 hours. They start and finish at an underground station. £17pp (2026) for the walks with groups of up to 20.

PLAN FOR WALKS IN EARLY 2026

All walks are advertised in the N&D u3a Newsletter and by email.
