Introduction:
I have been guiding in London and driving people for exciting day trips out of London for over 15 years. I specialise in family and small groups of up to 6 people with me. I am interested in Royal history and WW II and Winston Churchill. My favourite locations out of London are Windsor, Stonehenge, Oxford and the Cotswolds.I have many repeat clients and work hard to establish more! I am very flexible and like to work with clients to cover their areas of particular interests.
