A Festive Christmas Walk through Mayfair and St. James

Step into the magic of London this Christmas with a festive walk through Mayfair and St. James. After stopping at Trafalgar Square beneath the glow of the towering Christmas tree, we’ll stroll through quaint Georgian streets and elegant Victorian shopping arcades festooned with twinkling lights. Famous for its centuries-old shops, Jermyn Street sparkles with festive illuminations and its listed shop windows are a treat for the eyes at this time of the year. In Mayfair, we will encounter Bond Street’s luxury boutiques, wrapped like gifts themselves, and narrow alleys still full of the charm of old-world London. But nothing says London Christmas like Fortnum & Mason, home to the original Christmas hamper, a tradition dating back to Victorian times, so of course we’ll stop there too. Plus lots of historical tidbits and Christmas stories to get you into the festive spirit!

Half the proceeds from this walk will be donated to The Connection at St. Martin's, a London homeless charity
