About this app

Obelisk Tours take you on a wonderful journey along the River Thames - the spine of London - and towards some of the most famous and iconic landmarks of the Capital; through British cities, towns and villages to discover the people and events that changed the course of history.

This free app acts like a bookshelf which you can fill with tours of your choice through in-app purchases. There are four free tours ready for you to download or stream direct to the device and experience the full functionality of the tour experience.

Over the coming months and years we will be adding numerous tours around Britain covering a wide range of themes including Literary, Maritime, Faith, Military, Industrial, and much more.

We delight in taking you to the famous sites plus we love to explore the hidden corners of our nation.
