I'm James M., your private tour guide in London

Guide #29486

Hello and welcome to my profile page. I suppose the first thing on your mind is: Why should I choose this guide instead of the others? The answer is simple: I absolutely LOVE taking people out and showing them around. It's not just a case of booking a tour; we're going on an adventure together, whether you book one of my published tours or want to have a bespoke tour. I can promise you one thing: it will be informative, fun, and you will really get to see what you want—and often more than you expect. Just check out the reviews; they will give you a good idea of how I like to run the days out. I lived in London for many years, and now I reside in Brighton, which is a fabulous seaside town near the capital. I know all the hidden gems in London and all along the south coast of England, which I would love to share with you. Whether it's history, shopping, nightlife, or pretty much anything else, I will be able to show you exactly what you need. I have also designed some multi-day tours; this is the best way to fit in a true local experience, and you see so much more than you would on a day trip because we have less travel between places. We stay in different places on our adventure so you get to see them once the tourists go home (Ironic, I know, ha ha). Sussex is also a beautiful part of the country; we have a national park on the outskirts (the Downs) which is amazing for walks. We also have many other towns around us that are worth visiting. For example, we have Lewes, which is a 15-minute drive away and hosts probably the most amazing fireworks display in the country on the 5th of November. I can also work as your chauffeur. This means our journey can start right from when you land. I can pick you up from any of the London airports or cruise terminals, making sure you get to your hotel safe and sound after any tour If you have any questions at all, please feel free to contact me, and let's get your adventure started. - Join me for a luxurious ride in a Mercedes E220 with air conditioning. - My journey began as a travel agent, allowing me to travel extensively over my life, my style of travel is getting under the skin of a country, that's why I've ended up becoming a guide so I can take you on that journey too. - I believe in experiencing the local vibe, ensuring your day out or multi-day tour is tailored to your desires. - Life is meant to be fun, and I bring a light-hearted approach to our adventures because, hey, we only live once!

    We did a 2 day tour with Lord James. From start to finish James was so very informative and knowledgeable about London. Even before we arrived he confirmed with us all our tickets we would need for our excursions and told us what to expect. Lord James made our experience more enjoyable and was very accommodating. We would definitely recommend his services.

    Thank you so much for the fantastic review! It was an absolute pleasure showing you around. I'm really glad you enjoyed the day and that we could tailor everything to make it just right for you. That's what private touring is all about! I'd love to welcome you back for another adventure next time you're in the UK
