This cultural tour was designed by Khalid exclusively for Airbnb.
I'm a professional archaeologist with degrees from UCL and years of fieldwork across the UK, including Roman and medieval sites. I bring deep, first-hand knowledge of London’s history — not just from books, but from the trenches. I’ve worked on major excavations and studied the city’s evolution from Londinium to the present. This tour blends academic insight with engaging storytelling to make 2,000 years of history come to life.
