THE INTELLIGENCE TRAIL



Intrigue. Betrayal. Clandestine operations. Seduction. Double-crossing. And good old-fashioned skulduggery.


Discover some of the key triumphs and tragedies within the last 100 years of Britain's modern day spies (MI6) and spy-catchers (MI5).  Walk past the locations where many of the UK's key intelligence decisions and meetings occurred.


London is the spy capital of the world, and the espionage lover's dream city. The Intelligence Trail is the most comprehensive London spy tour to focus on real life intelligence and espionage over the years.  This guided walk in London provides a genuine insight into the conducting of (and use of) intelligence throughout the modern world's turbulent times.  But there are also some comic and surreal moments - afterall, in the intelligence world, truth is often stranger than fiction.


Due to the adult themes of the tour, The Intelligence Trail is only suitable for those aged 18 and over.


This spy tour will appeal to anyone - students, spy thriller fans, tourists, or those considering joining MI5 and MI6 - wanting to know more about Britain's intelligence services, the key episodes in their history, and the context in which these occurred. It's the perfect opportunity to find-out what has REALLY happened in the worlds of MI5 and MI6 in central London, away from the fictional worlds of George Smiley, James Bond, Harry Palmer - and more recently - Harry Pearce, and his team from Spooks!

You’ll discover:-

      -  What happened: who did what to whom?
      -  The activities, consequences – and downfalls – of some of Britain’s worst spy traitors
      ...and maybe if there’s time… 
      -  Exploding milk churns! Poisoned chocolates! Hidden passageways! ‘Sexed-up’ dossiers!
        Sexed-up’ agents!

The 'Trail comes highly recommended – even from the professionals themselves! Testimonials can be found here and on Trip Advisor the guide – ‘Mr. X’ – is armed with a BA (Hons) in International Relations, specialising in security affairs, as well as politics/economics lecturing experience.  This is the London spy tour you can be confident about!
