• Mayfair - Explore the most prestigious area of London.
  This segment of the tour highlights the young, ambitious, war hero and bachelor Winston Churchill, eager to make his mark on the world.

Visit his first childhood home, bachelor pad, and the residence he established with his wife Clementine, along with a stop at some of his favorite tailors.

You’ll also have the opportunity to pose with Churchill and Roosevelt at the Allies Statue.

• Savile Row - The destination for bespoke suits, shirts, or formal wear.

Stop by Henry Poole and Co., a historic Savile Row tailor with a long-standing connection to the Churchill family. They crafted suits for Winston’s father Randolph and many for Winston himself throughout his life, including the famous pinstripe suit in the Tommy Gun photo of Churchill. It’s said that Winston Churchill still owes the company some money, and the tailors often found cigar stubs in the pockets when suits came in for alterations.

Recently, Henry Poole and Co. were commissioned to make Gary Oldman’s suits for the movie “The Darkest Hour.”

• St. James’s - “I am a man of simple tastes; I am easily satisfied with the best.” - Winston Churchill.

This exclusive shopping area in St. James caters mainly to discerning gentlemen with deep pockets. This is where James Bond buys his clothes and cologne! You’ll see many of the shops Sir Winston Churchill frequented, including those selling his preferred aftershaves and even his favorite cheesemonger.

• Spencer House - Winston Churchill was born at Blenheim Palace in 1874, but his early years were spent in London. His father, Lord Randolph Churchill, was the son of the 7th Duke of Marlborough, with the family name being Spencer-Churchill. We will start at Spencer House and the smaller house next door where a young Winston grew up. We will discuss his great ancestors and his relationship to Diana Spencer (Princess Diana).
• Turnbull & Asser - Churchill was a stylish dresser, but sometimes he needed something practical yet comfortable when out on the grounds of his country estate, Chartwell, or during the cold nights watching the bombs fall over London. Enter the ‘Romper Suit’ or ‘Siren Suit’ as it became known. Churchill trusted only one company to make these to his specifications, his shirt maker Turnbull & Asser.

This company was also the first to receive a Royal Warrant from Prince Charles.

• James J. Fox & Robert Lewis - Sir Winston was rarely seen without his trademark cigar. His favorite brand was Romeo Y Julieta. On this tour, you’ll visit the cigar merchant where he purchased his cigars, sit in his chair, and even sample a cigar in the upstairs lounge!
• Saint Margaret’s Church on Parliament Square - On 12th September 1908, Winston Churchill married Clementine Hozier at this church right next to Westminster Abbey. Known as the Parish Church of the House of Commons, it was a regular place of celebration, memorial, or thanksgiving during Winston Churchill’s life.
• Parliament Square - Across the road from the Houses of Parliament, the statue of Sir Winston Churchill gazes at his beloved House of Commons.

Churchill was offered a peerage and a dukedom but declined both as this would prevent him or his male descendants from serving in the house. Let’s pause here for a while and discuss the political life and anecdotes of this extraordinary man.

• Whitehall - A brief look at a pub with a connection to all British Prime Ministers, The Red Lion.
  It’s no secret that Churchill loved a drink, and he also cherished tradition.

This pub has served every Prime Minister a drink, including Winston Churchill. He certainly wasn’t going to break that tradition!

• Downing Street - The official residence of the Prime Minister since Robert Walpole.

This famous little street is known worldwide. The door that Winston Churchill walked through as Prime Minister in 1940 is preserved and on display in the Churchill War Rooms.
