Overview

Looking for the most magical way to experience Christmas in London with your kids? Join our private Christmas Lights Walking Tour for families – a sparkling adventure through the city’s most festive streets, famous window displays, and hidden holiday gems designed especially for children and parents.

From the moment you meet your friendly family expert guide, you’ll feel the holiday spirit come alive. This isn’t a rushed checklist of sights – it’s a joyful journey paced perfectly for little legs and curious minds. We can plan extra photo stops, short snack breaks, and fun family moments so everyone stays happy while discovering the best Christmas lights in London.

Your tour begins near Bond Street Station, where Oxford Street’s twinkling canopy and Selfridges’ legendary windows set the mood. Wander through elegant Carlos Place to admire the Connaught Hotel’s festive entrance, then continue via Berkeley Square to New Bond Street, where Chanel, Dior, and Cartier sparkle with spectacular style. Along Piccadilly, you’ll marvel at Fortnum & Mason’s iconic advent calendar windows before stepping into the charming Burlington Arcade, glowing with old-fashioned Christmas magic.

Next, follow the shimmering angels of Regent Street, wave at Hamleys, and admire Liberty London’s storybook façade before soaking up the vibrant colors of Carnaby Street’s creative lights. From Piccadilly Circus’ dazzling screens to Leicester Square’s family-friendly Christmas market, every corner bursts with festive cheer. Then, stroll through Cecil Court and Goodwin Court – two hidden gems that feel straight out of a Dickens tale or a Harry Potter movie – before reaching Covent Garden, home to London’s most spectacular Christmas tree and joyful atmosphere.

This 2.5-hour private walking tour is fully customizable to your children’s ages, interests, and walking pace. And to wrap up your magical evening, we’ll stop for a delicious hot chocolate break in Covent Garden or a mulled wine for the grown-ups, the perfect warm and sweet ending to a sparkling family adventure in London!

Don’t feel like walking? Stay warm and enjoy the sparkle on our Black Cab Christmas Lights Tour!

FAQ

How long is this Christmas Lights Walking Tour in London?

The tour lasts around 2.5 hours, including plenty of time for photo stops, stories, and a cozy hot chocolate break at the end.

Is this tour suitable for young children?

[bouton_read_more]

Absolutely! Little ones love the lights, colors, and festive surprises along the way, and we make sure the pace stays fun and easy for them. But Christmas magic has no age, so parents and teens will be just as enchanted!

How much walking is involved?

The route is gentle and stroller-friendly, with regular stops for lights, windows, and treats. We can easily adjust the pace to match your children’s ages and energy. The total walking distance is around 2 miles (about 3.2 km), but it feels much shorter thanks to all the lights, stories, and fun stops along the way.

What will we see during the tour?

You’ll discover London’s most iconic Christmas spots: Oxford Street, Regent Street, Carnaby, Leicester Square, and Covent Garden, plus plenty of hidden festive corners along the way.

Do we stop for snacks or hot drinks?

Of course! We finish with a cozy hot chocolate in Covent Garden, because let’s be honest, Christmas without chocolate just wouldn’t feel right! Your warm drink (or a festive mulled wine for the grown-ups) is on us. If you spot something tempting along the way, a cookie, a sweet treat, or another drink, we’ll happily stop so you can enjoy it too.

Can we customize the itinerary?

Of course. Since this is a private family tour, we can adapt the itinerary, meeting point, or timing to suit your needs and interests.

What happens if it rains?

London’s Christmas lights shine beautifully even in the rain! Just bring umbrellas and warm clothes, the sparkle is worth it.

Do you offer a version without walking?

Yes! If you’d prefer to stay warm and cozy, check out our Black Cab Christmas Lights Tour, the same magic, from the comfort of a London cab.
