BRING YOUR BABY GUIDED LONDON WALK: "Discovering Roman London"

'Bring Your Baby' Guided London Walks are sensitively devised to suit parents and carers of even the tiniest babies to enjoy London’s history. We can stop whenever you like to feed and change - without the stress of feeling you are holding up the group. Because every participant brings their baby, patience and baby’s needs are at the forefront of each walk.

You are welcome to bring friends and family who do not also have a baby.

Led by City of London Green Badge guide Joanna, who also runs our Hampstead, Great Fire of London, Medieval to Tudor London, Architecture and Primrose Hill walks.

Walk Starts: Outside The Monument to the Great Fire of London, Fish Street Hill

Walk Ends: The Guildhall

30 minute refreshment/'coffee' break at the amazing "cafe in a church", Host cafe, where there are also baby change facilities. As this is only 30-minute stop for this particular walk please bring a sandwich or snack to eat along the way if you are likely to be hungry before the walk finishes at 1pm, although Host cafe does sell sandwiches and cakes you could purchase to take away for the second part of the walk!

Walk description:

- Visit the newly-reopened Temple of Mithras, which we will book in for the day of the walk. You will be given 30 mins inside to see Roman artefacts such as writing tablets and shoes, as well as view the the 6-minute experience of the temple itself. The museum is fully accessible with a lift, and has toilets and baby change.

- Enter The Roman Amphitheatre at Guildhall, where the walk ends so you have the opportunity to stay on and view the rest of the Guildhall Gallery (no booking required and free access). Here there are also great toilets and baby change.

- Discover the first Roman street in London.

- See a Wren church built on the old head of the Roman London Bridge, along with the remnant of timber from an old Roman wharf dating from 75AD.

- Visit the mythological London Stone associated with Brutus of Troy, near the site a huge Roman administrative building.

If on the day of the walk we are forecast to have very bad weather, I may have to postpone the walk. If it's a bit of light rain we will cope!

Every walk follows the usual health and safety guidelines, such as crossing at traffic lights where possible and having hazards pointed out to you at the start and along the route.

There may be times we have to stand in direct sunlight (although I will always choose shade where possible). Please bring all the necessary sun protection for yourself and your child.

It is recommended you bring appropriate drinks and snacks for the duration of the walk, especially if the walk takes place at lunchtime.

I will contact you with booking confirmation after you book. I will supply my mobile number in case of emergencies or in case you are running late. I will also ask you to provide me with a mobile number so you can be contacted for the purposes of the walk, but this is *not for marketing purposes*. Please note that if you are more than a few minutes late I may ask you to catch up with us.

If you like the look of any of my walks, but would prefer to book me privately, please make enquiries at [email protected]. This may particularly be the case if you have people interested who do not have babies.

Important notes about booking:

- Please feel free to invite baby-free friends.

- Children are the responsibility of the parent or guardian, and must be monitored by them at all times.

- Refunds or requests to move to a future event or date must be requested within 24 hours of the event commencing so that we can try to refill the space in adequate time. I also have to honour to pay my guide within this time frame.

- If for any reason Bring Your Baby Ltd are forced to cancel or postpone an event (for example in the case of illness or extreme weather conditions), you are within your rights to request a refund, though we will always suggest an alternative date for you to attend.

- On occasion we take photos or short video clips at our 'Bring Your Baby Pub Quizzes' or 'Bring Your Baby Guided London Walks'.
