Bowler History Tours – Curated walking experience that traces the history of London through its most iconic shops, brands, and locations.
London's finest shops photographer Horst A. Friedrichs throws open the doors to the British capital’s preeminent retail shrines, from clubby tailoring establishments to quirky button emporia and subterranean silver vaults. Some have been plying their trade for centuries – a few even pre-date Napoleon – and some are newer kids on the block. But all are rightly celebrated in these exclusive tours not only as testaments to London’s unique retail heritage, but also as temples to craftsmanship and creativity; in short, these are places where transaction and inspiration go hand in hand.

What a journey this was. Together with you we had a great day . Gained many new insights regarding London. We where all tired in the evening but very satisfied. You took all the time , which we experienced as very pleasant.

Herzlichen Dank, lieber Horst!
Es war interessant, es war schön, ein Ausflug auf den halbverborgenen Pfaden der Reichen und Schönen, die sich rund um die Jermyn Street kreuzen.
Anne Maria Bauer from Austria
