London Guided Walks » Jenny Funnell
Jenny Funnell


I’m Jenny Funnell, and I am thrilled to be your qualified City of London Guide. More than a profession, guiding is a calling for me. I find incredible joy in sharing the City of London with you, whether you’re a local or a visitor, and introducing you to aspects you’ve perhaps never seen or even heard of.
For me, it’s not just about the physical landmarks; it’s about the enthralling human narratives interwoven into the very fabric of this ancient City. Whether you’re drawn to grand architecture or you have a curiosity for the people who have shaped our community—be it through politics, business, or culture—I aim to offer you an experience that is both broad and deeply engaging. I like to take a look into the lives of influential figures—each of whom has left an indelible impression on the course of our City’s history.
Currently, I conduct several themed tours that encapsulate various aspects of the City’s history and culture. These include:
Pioneering Women in the City Private Tour: This walking tour offers an in-depth exploration of the stories, contributions, and challenges of remarkable women who have shaped and been shaped
City Highlights Private Tour: This is your all-in-one journey through the Square Mile, where you’ll discover both iconic landmarks and lesser-known treasures.
Roman London Private Tour: Here, we transport ourselves back in time to the era of Roman rule, tracing the remnants of a past that has shaped our present.
Financial London Private Tour: Explore the fascinating financial world in the City of London and discover the connection between coffee, cash and commerce.
But that’s not all! If you have a specific area or topic you’re passionate about, let’s collaborate. I’m more than happy to create a bespoke tour that caters to your interests. While I do appreciate a bit of advance notice, the challenge of crafting a tailored experience is something I truly enjoy.
So, if you’re keen to uncover the diverse layers of the City of London’s past and present, I would be delighted to be your guide on this exploratory journey. Feel free to reach out for any inquiries or to set up a tour tailored just for you.

One of the best walks we’ve done. Jenny is amazing. We will definitely do another walk when we return to London. We did the Great Fire of London but will love to do the History of Herstory. Thanks so much jenny.
