Introduction:

I would love to help you to explore, discover and enjoy London and England showing you the famous landmarks but also hidden secrets. So whether you are a visitor or a local I can create and guide a tailor-made tour specially for you. Why not get a group of friends together perhaps to celebrate a special occasion or just to spend some time together.

I offer tours of all the famous sites, museums and art galleries, walking tours looking in detail at various parts of London or with a special theme such as theatre or architecture. Day trips from London to Oxford, the Cotswolds, Bath,Salisbury and many more and extended U.K tours.

Besides general tours I also do specialist Christianity tours looking at the history of Christianity in the U.K by visiting related sites on walks and tours. How about a tour of christian art in the National Gallery or a tour of the British Museum looking at exhibits which relate to the historical truth of the Old Testament. Cathedral and church tours from a Christian perspective which will make your tour more meaningful. For full details please http://visitwww.tourguideinlondon.com

I qualified as a Blue Badge Guide in 2009.
