ABOUT ME

I am a Blue Badge Tour Guide specialising in London and England​.

Since 2015 I have been a London Blue Badge Tourist Guide. This is the highest level of guiding qualification in the UK. It is only awarded after an intensive 2 year training and examination process.

​

I have been awarded the prestigious TripAdvisor Travellers Choice Award or Certificate of Merit on three occasions.

​

A Londoner born and bred, I have a wide and broad ranging knowledge of this amazing city.

​

At heart I'm a storyteller, bringing the past to life and opening up your eyes to the sights around you. Providing context, stories and entertainment in equal measure are central to the service I offer my clients.

​

Before becoming a tour guide, I had a varied career. It ranged from being an actor and puppeteer, through journalism to being the owner of a chain of jewellery outlets,

​

I gave it all up to show you London. 

​

Whether you are a family on holiday, a tour operator or a corporate client,

I can tailor my tours for you.

​

I have experience guiding groups large and small. I can guide in a car, taxi, boat, on a luxury coach or on foot.
