Overview

Greenwich, one of London’s oldest districts, has a spine-tingling darker side. On this self-guided walking tour, you’ll explore haunted landmarks and hear blood-curdling tales that lurk beneath the polished surface of this UNESCO World Heritage site.

The tour starts at the Greenwich Tourist Information Desk. You’ll walk around the magnificent sailing vessel, Cutty Sark, and find out how this 19th-century tea clipper was named after a witch in a Scottish ghost story.
