Itinerary
We end our tour at the bank, of course, where Michael invested his tuppence and saved the family home. The 2 hour walking tour includes many of the film locations and inspirations from the new film Mary Poppins Returns, and inspirational locations from the books including the Bank of England, the Royal Exchange and the sites used for the streets of London. As we walk, you’ll also get to see many other familiar landmarks along the way. Your tour guide will point out some historic locations and provide additional information, providing a practically perfect mix of fiction and reality. Time for a jolly holiday where we trip the light fantastic!
Grab your talking parroted umbrella and follow us as we explore the historic streets of the City of London. Come and join the Mary Poppins Tour of London and explore on foot the magical fun packed walking tour of the film locations and inspirations in the capital. Join other Poppins fans and learn about everyone’s favourite nanny, how the films were made, the books and test out your Mary Poppins knowledge is. Can you imagine that.
A tour about this Edwardian nanny and chimney sweeps would be complete without a trip to the rooftops of London, so take flight as we visit a rooftop terrace to enjoy stunning views of St Paul’s Cathedral and the London skyline.
On this tour, you will see where Mary Poppins Returns was filmed, and soon you’ll believe that everything is possible — even the impossible. You’ll discover a street sign that is not as it seems, because a cover is not the book! We will also visit the now famous corner steps where the bird lady sits. We try not to feed the birds, but you can sing to yourself and snap a few photos, too.
Head down the atmospheric alleyway that was the location of Topsy's shop

The tour was lovely! Both my daughters and myself enjoyed it. Catherine was very kind and patient with my 4 year old daughter when she was tired. Would recommend, although you really have to watch Mary Poppins Returns first to fully appreciate it.
This was a fun tour and the guide was knowledgable and personable. However, this is not a tour designed for young children. While my mom and I found it interesting, the information, descriptions, and engagement approach are appropriate for adults or older kids.
The guide was very nice and she provided us with a full set of interesting informations. The tour was great and interesting.
It was a lovely walk but do it only if you are a super fan of the second movie since the locations on the walk are mapped to the new Mary Poppins movie. We enjoyed ourselves and also our guide was very helpful and knowledgeable about the places we went to
That was amazing thank you Fiona for your energy and this tour
Arrived at Temple station 30 minutes ahead of scheduled time. No guide arrived and we were left for over 40 mins without any communication from the company. It was only for others within the group that called the company that we were told no guide would be attending. This was a birthday gift from my daughter and we travelled 3 hours to get there. Disgusting service as well as extremely frustrating and disappointing!
Dear Sir/Madam, We are sorry about this negative experience. The guide in question was taken severely ill the morning of the tour and was unable to contact the office to inform us, hence why we had no idea about their absence until long after the tour was due to begin. You should have received a full refund by now. If not, please email us further at: info@britmovietours.com Kind regards, Brit Movie Tours
I was 15 minutes early, as instructed by the staff regarding the start of the guided tour. I waited for over 45 minutes, and the guide simply didn't show up, and no one at the agency had the courtesy to notify me or send a message. I only found out he wasn't actually coming because one of the clients was also waiting to be assigned to the agency. I've been a huge Mary Poppins fan since I was a child, and I'd been eagerly awaiting this day, but the agency's disregard for people completely misled me.
Dear Jennifer, Our sincere apologies for this experience. Due to unforeseen circumstances, the guide was taken severely ill and unable to inform us of their situation, resulting in their absence. You should have received an email from us offering a full refund or the chance to reschedule to another date. If you have any queries or questions, please contact us directly at: info@britmovietours.com Kind regards, Brit Movie Tours
