Uncover the Dark History of Colonialism in London on a Transformative 3 Hour Guided Tour

Embark on a captivating journey through London's rich and complex history with the Slave Trade Money Trail Tour. This enlightening experience invites participants to explore the city's deep-rooted connections to the transatlantic slave trade, revealing stories long hidden beneath the surface. With each step, gain a fresh perspective on historical events that shaped not just Britain, but the world, as you wander through iconic locations that tell tales of both prosperity and pain.

The adventure unfolds in the heart of the historic Bank area, where visitors will uncover intriguing links between powerful financial institutions and the slave trade. Stop by the grand Royal Exchange, once a bustling hub of commerce, and learn how it facilitated trade that benefited from the exploitation of countless lives. Continue to Fenchurch Street, where the echoes of the shipping industry’s dark past linger, showcasing the area’s undeniable ties to wealth built on human suffering. At Lloyd’s of London, delve into the institution’s significant role in underwriting this notorious trade, and finally, visit Borough Market, a lively trading post that also has ties to the products of enslaved labour.

This immersive experience serves as a remarkable gift for history enthusiasts and curious minds alike. By participating in the Slave Trade Money Trail Tour, not only is there an opportunity for personal discovery, but it also opens up meaningful conversations about the legacy of colonialism today. Give the gift of knowledge and reflection that is sure to inspire and educate, all while celebrating the resilience of those who endured.

Slave Trade Money Trail Tour in the City of London

The organisation's drive is in changing the narrative of the common story of British history. Through studying Sociology, History and Black Studies, our organisation have been able to unpack years of documented events that have been archived in national and international storage facilities, interviewed award winning authors and studied academic journals. This journey has given us the opportunity to access a range of perspectives, compare and contrast theorists and to build a better historical outlook. Having developed the ability to put theory into practice, we have spent years engaging in the conversation on British colonialism, hosting tours of the City London and contributing research to gallery and museum exhibitions. This tour has the cutting edge like no other educational experience, packed with hidden history, humour, jaw dropping facts and a view of some London's ancient and modern architecture.
