About the Tour

Our Hyde Park hotel is perfectly placed to explore all of London’s major sights, shops and scenery. On this tour, we’ll take you on a journey through our hotel’s historic neighbourhood of Knightsbridge and South Kensington. From world-famous institutions such as the Natural History Museum to royal palaces, record-breaking department stores to the serene green spaces of Hyde Park, you’ll get to know the classic and more curious sides of the part of the city we call home.

The tour will take just over an hour to complete, but you can pause it at any point to enjoy the fascinating museums, excellent restaurants and cafes, and the fresh air of Hyde Park. If you have any questions, simply ask our fantastic concierge team.

How VoiceMap Works

Focus on your surroundings, not the screen
The VoiceMap app uses GPS to play audio automatically, at the right time and place, so you can focus on your surroundings, not the screen.
Follow a route with turn-by-turn-directions
VoiceMap tours follow a route from a fixed starting point. That lets us give turn-by-turn directions and use context to tell a better story.
Resume playback to go at your own pace
If you'd like to stop for a drink or go into a museum, end your tour then use the Resume feature to pick up exactly where you left off.
Listen as many times as you like
You can listen to your tours as often as you like using both the VoiceMap app and website.
Take virtual tours anywhere, like a podcast
Select Virtual mode in the VoiceMap app to listen to tours like a podcast - at home or in transit.
Buy for less on voicemap.me and sync
Once you've purchased a tour, it's added to your VoiceMap library. To access it in the app, just sign in using the same account.

Tips

Places to stop along the way

London is awash with incredible food and drink outlets, from award-winning restaurants to quaint and cosy pubs. Try Spanish sharing plates from London stalwart Tapas Brindisa in South Kensington, grab an ice cream or a slice of cake from the tearooms in Hyde Park, or treat yourself to the À La Carte menu at Dinner by Heston Blumenthal back at the hotel.

Best time of day

This tour can be enjoyed at any time of the day, but it’s advisable to avoid the museums’ busy hours around lunchtime. In the afternoon, the sun throws wonderful light across the parks.

Precautions

Like any major city, London is often busy with traffic, so be mindful when near main roads. While the capital is a very safe city, pickpocketing is not uncommon in touristic areas.
