Introduction:

My name is Susanne and welcome to London!

London is open and ready to welcome visitor from all over the globe.

2023 is set to be an amazing year here in London. To kick it all off we have the Coronation of King Charle the III in May and our visitors will get to experience a spectacle like no other.

Our galleries and museums are brimming with new and fantastic exhibitions and our castles and palaces are getting ready for a very royal year.

I love showing visitors around and telling them our history and creating life long memories. If you are looking for something different, I am happy to devise a bespoke tour for groups and individuals. Whether it be a corporate partner programme, a class of KS2 children, teenage students, EFL schools, a family reunion or just a couple. Let me know your interests and I will prepare your visit.

My background is Events Management and Hospitality and I have worked on some pretty spectacular events both in the UK and also as far away as West Africa. All attended by Royals, A-listers and anyone in between. Oh the stories......

Being a Blue Badge Guide is so much fun as I get to meet amazing people from all over the world and I get to show some of the very best that both London and the UK has to offer.
