With the announcement of the dates for this year’s London Holiday Lights Tour, join us on a special behind the scenes look, as we follow a family on our annual special, the Private Magical Christmas London Tour (3 hours).

After being picked up from their Central London accommodation, the family went on a magical journey of Christmas through the ages, led by their own team: a professional tour guide, plus their own chauffeur.

The addition of a chauffeur is a London Magical Tours exclusivity – and as our returning guests always comment – it makes a huge difference to the experience, especially at such a busy time of year. First in line, every time, with no parking worries. Plus our chauffeurs know all the best Christmas music to create the festive spirit, as you move between the best of the London Christmas locations.

Christmas Lights and Decorations

One of the highlights of the Private Magical Christmas London Tour is being able to go in search of some of London’s best Christmas lights and decorations – much more than just the lights. London is unique in that each neighbourhood has its own set of holiday lights and decorations – making Christmas time the best part of the year to discover the capital.

Our guests took their time exploring, stopping for photos and loved learning about each festive neighbourhood at their own pace. Just look at these oversized Christmas baubles!

Christmas time in London is so much more than the lights – just look at those festive baubles!

The Magic of Christmas in London

The tour continued with the family joining their professional guide on guided walks to help bringing the London Christmas story to life. There was plenty of time to stop for photos, enjoy the sights and make the most of their evening without being tied to a large group. Our London Christmas lights tours are designed for that – to make exploring London comfortable, personal and memorable.

The Twelve Days of Christmas

Did you know that “The 12 Days of Christmas” carol began as a fun memory game, played at the dinner table?

Players would recite gifts in order — forget a line and a playful forfeit awaited! Over time, this simple game became one of Britain’s most beloved holiday songs.

This year sees the song resurface as a particular highlight across London Magical Tours’ award winning Christmas tours.

Come and discover the gifts from the Twelve Days of Christmas — including the 6 Geese a-laying

From Family Game to Christmas Classic

From a partridge in a pear tree, all the way to 12 drummers drumming – the quirky gifts on the Twelve Days of Christmas list made for a fun but tricky memory game. Originally played by families at the table on Christmas Day, by the 18th century printed versions spread the song far beyond homes – and it soon became a festive carol, sung by both choirs and families alike.

If you wish to experience the spirit of the season in London, don’t miss the festive extravaganza that is our London Christmas Lights tour — it’s the perfect way to see the city’s holiday magic come alive.
