Mothers Day 2015

Screen Shot 2015-05-10 at 10.19.32

Did you know that Mothers Day (Mothering Sunday) in Great Britain is celebrated in March? Whereas in the USA and other parts of the world including South America, Mothers Day is celebrated during the month of May. In fact mother’s day (which originates from way back in 1908 when Anna Jarvis decided to have a memorial for the passing of her mother) is also celebrated during the months of June (in Mongolia), July (if you are in South Sudan), August (if you are in Costa Rica or Thailand) and during the months of October to December, depending on which part of the world you are in!

The term “Mothering Sunday” in fact refers to the celebration which occurs on the 4th Sunday of Lent and is a holiday celebrated by the Catholic and Protestant Church in Europe, whereby we honour our mothers by celebrating and giving them presents. In Great Britain, Mothering Sunday is celebrated in the same way as it is in other parts of the world.

If you would really like to spoil mum, “mothers day” should be celebrate every day. Why not go out of your way to treat her to a day out in London? If it feels like you have already taken her to the theatre or the Royal Chelsea flower show, why not opt for something a little different?

London Magical Tours provides a fantastic way to spoil mum. Book a day out in London this mothers day and treat mum to the sights of the capital followed by traditional high english tea with London Magical Tours.

A Magical Christmas in ‘Amazing London’

Here at London Magical Tours nothing makes us happier than hearing how much you enjoyed your tour with us. We would like to take the opportunity to thank everyone and share one of our favourite letters to Santa Claus that was filled out as part of our London Christmas Tours.

We would like to wish everyone a Magical Christmas and very happy 2015!

Dear Santa Claus,

The bestest thing I have seen in amazing London today was beautiful Buckingham Palace. I chose beautiful Buckingham Palace because it was fun seeing the solgers do there march and seeing the special flag on top of the beautiful buckingham palace. My most favourite part was seeing the lovely horses taking a carafe on the back. I loved seeing amazing London!

How London is transformed into a Winter Wonderland – Christmas 2014

Christmas in London is always a special treat. As evening falls, the capital is magically transformed into a winter wonderland. Shoppers crowd up the old streets under a canopy of holiday lights while carolers take to the squares and market corners, filling the air with songs of happy golden days of yore ….

When it comes to the Christmas decorations in town, Londoners and visitors alike are always amazed by the efforts put in each year. There is no better city in the world that puts on such a display to celebrate the holiday season!

Fortnum and Mason

Each year looks to improve on the last, with the likes of Harrods and Harvey Nichols pushing the envelope with their wonderful, whacky, sparkly christmas displays. Who will be crowned this year’s Christmas display champion?

To get you into the Christmas Spirit we have collected a variety of the fabulous Christmas displays from years past. Its just a tiny taste of what you can expect to see on our London Christmas Tours with London Magical Tours.

From Harrods in Knightsbridge, to Fortnum and Mason in Piccadilly, from the toys in Hamleys and the displays of Selfridges filling up Oxford Street – theres really nothing quite like spending the festive season in London.
