Sample Itinerary
We Come to You
Your private guide will meet you at your hotel or apartment for a consultation so that we can tailor the day to you.
A Flagship Department Store
Your guide can give you a shopping tour to remember in an iconic location, from Harrods and Selfridges to Harvey Nichols and Fortnum & Mason. Sample the Queen’s favorite tea, browse the beauty hall, and pick up iconic London gifts. We’ll also give you the inside scoop on the famous customers, past and present.
Hear the History of a Fashion Capital
From the bespoke tailors of Savile Row and the elegant Burlington Arcade to Soho shops of the swinging sixties, hear how London’s fashion scene has reflected the trends throughout the ages.
Boutique Shops
There’s always something to discover in London’s small but perfectly formed boutique stores. We tailor the destination to you, from kooky Carnaby Street to luxuriously quiet avenues in Mayfair.
Lunch or Afternoon Tea to Suit Your Tastes
During the booking, Totally Tailored can make a lunch reservation (food is purchased at your own expense). Your guide will escort you to lunch, with options from afternoon tea at Fortnum & Mason to fish and chips in Portobello Market. Just let us know your preference.
Vintage and Antique Markets
Some of the most special items are found in the markets of Spitalfields and Portobello. So take back a cherished souvenir with heritage from the stalls of one of these quintessentially “London” markets.
