Description
Walk Starts: Angel tube station
Walk Ends: Highbury & Islington tube station
With a stop after about an hour at the N1 Shopping Centre on Upper Street where there is a baby change, and where you will be given 40 minutes to go and get something to eat and drink of your choice before meeting back up with the guide to resume the walk.
Winner of 'Best Parent Activity' at the 'Bablands Awards', 'Bring Your Baby' Guided London Walks are sensitively devised to suit parents and carers of even the tiniest babies to enjoy London’s history. We can stop whenever you like to feed and change - without the stress of feeling you are holding up the group. Because every participant brings their baby, patience and baby’s needs are at the forefront of each walk.
You are welcome to bring friends and family who do not also have a baby.
