London is the true “City of Spies” with over 10,000 agents hard at work in the capital! You will hear tales of Elizabeth I and intrigue, the Great Game, and the Cold War. You’ll tread in the footsteps of “The Cambridge Ring”, the Special Operations Executive and, of course, the most famous spy in the world: “007”.This is a spy journey of which John Le Carre, Frederick Forsyth, and Rudyard Kipling would be proud. You will explore the successes and failures of MI5 and SIS (MI6), root out the treachery of the Cambridge spy ring, find out the facts behind the invention of the world’s first computer and why many of its uses were top secret until recently… and how many more still are! Created by an expert from the real world of espionage and the British secret service, you will discover the world of spooks in a unique and practical way. At the end, you can enjoy a well-earned Vespa – vodka Martini, shaken, not stirredthen enjoy dinner at our top-secret Whitehall venue.
Immerse yourself in the cloak and dagger world of the second oldest profession in the world that is Espionage. Visit the once known ‘House of Spies’ St Ermin's that was frequented by Ian Fleming, the author of James Bond who used a secret passageway to get there directly from MI6. You're invited to a private club in the heart of Whitehall for a farewell toast where guests are welcome to join in a Q&A session with their expert host before enjoying dinner at the same venue
