Introduction:
I have lived in London for the past 35 years and I love the excitement, vibrancy and variety of this extraordinary city. I have a degree in Medieval and Modern History from the University of Liverpool and for over twenty years I have taught History in a central London independent school, taking advantage of the many local museums, galleries and palaces.
As a professional Blue Badge Guide, I want to help bring this city to life for you, our visitors, in terms of its colourful history and its contemporary delights. I enjoy guiding in London’s major tourist sites, such as Westminster Abbey, St Paul’s Cathedral and the Tower of London, as well as exploring the ‘hidden gems’ off the beaten track, in areas such as Mayfair, St James’s, Southwark and Clerkenwell. I am more than happy to create a bespoke tour to fit in with your wishes, and combine walking tours, site visits and public transport to ensure that you get the most out of your time in London. I am also a keen cyclist so if a cycling tour is what you are after, I am your guide!
I work with individuals, small groups and families. I really look forward to hearing from you.
