To celebrate Pride month, the lastminute.com London Eye has partnered with historian, Mark T Cox, to create a unique version of his popular walking tours of London. Taking place ahead of London’s Pride weekend, the tour aims to educate and entertain guests with fascinating stories of London’s LGBTQ+ history as they take the 30-minute tour across the city’s skyline.
For one day only, on Friday, June 30, guests will have the opportunity to step aboard the ‘Pride Pod’ and join Mark for an exploration of the fascinating and complex history of LGBT+ life in London through tales of the iconic people and places that have shaped the city and community through the centuries.
Mark will point out important LGBT+ landmarks such as Trafalgar Square, where the first UK Pride took place in July 1972, the Islington Town Hall, where one of the very first same-sex marriages took place in 2014, and the site of one of Europe’s largest LGBTQ+ nightclubs, Heaven.
