The TCS London Marathon has become one of the most sought after Abbott World Marathon Majors races. Known for its flat scenic course, world-class competition and excellent organization, this gem of a marathon will have you feeling like royalty when you cross the finish line on the Mall in front of Buckingham Palace.
The first London Marathon was held on March 29, 1981 and more than 20,000 applied to run. From this pool only 6,747 were accepted and 6,255 crossed the finish line on Constitution Hill. Seeing an opportunity to create a unique running experience for our clients, Marathon Tours & Travel immediately established a relationship with the London Marathon team and hosted our first trip in 1982. Entering our 43rd year supporting London we are pleased to continue to be the official North American travel agency, which allows us to offer you a guaranteed entry in conjunction with your travel arrangements.
Our goal is to be your running concierge and provide packages, which offer features that will make your trip a memorable one. Our hotel options, welcome reception, optional guided tour of Windsor Castle and transfer to the race start have been carefully refined based on more than 40 years of client feedback. Our Deluxe Package option also gives you the opportunity to participate in a guided London City Tour with a stop at the TCS London Marathon Expo, enjoy a group pre-race pasta dinner, and affords you more time to explore the magical city of London. The hotels we select are within a short walking distance from the finish, as well as iconic places such as Hyde Park, St. James Park, Buckingham Palace, and the Houses of Parliament.
Entry of overseas runners is strictly limited according to a system devised by the London Marathon Committee. The field is restricted, so unfortunately many are turned away. We are limited in the number of guaranteed entries and do our best to provide a fair reservation process.

What did I like the most? The people - MTT hosts and runners are instant friends and family. The opening night talk by Jeff and Tom saying more about the mission and purpose of MTT helped me understand why I would want to stay connected to MTT for my destination marathons.
Allyson was amazing!! We felt so very prepared going to London…no question went unanswered. We were so grateful to be going with Marathon tours! Loved the race morning bus, that was so stress free!
Exceptional company, best customer service, above and beyond professionalism during these challenging times, cares so much about their clients we practically feel like family.
