I'm Raymond W., your private tour guide in Canterbury

Guide #33876

Hi, I'm Ray! My tours offer a fun and relaxed style of bespoke and unique content. I am flexible to accommodate any of your interests and cultural insights. The best way to describe my tours is that I will "hold your hand" for the day, have unlimited photo opportunities and show you those unique and interesting places that only a London Taxi Driver will know. We will drive, walk, laugh and learn. My highest achievement is being a proud father of 4, following that I have been a licensed London Black Taxi Driver since completing the London knowledge in 1987. I studied the knowledge whilst working as a Printer in Fleet Street (home of London's newspaper industry) during the '80s. More recently in 2016, I qualified as a Taxi Guide with the Worshipful Company of Hackney Carriage Drivers, studying at the City of London Museum. I was made in London, and have remained a resident Londoner. I love to share my knowledge and passion for this beautiful city that I call home. I have so much to share with you - stories and sites from Roman remain to the current day. I have travelled extensively across the world touring South East Asia, China, Australia, South Pacific, East to West coast across North America, and Europe. As an extensive traveller myself, I feel that I can provide what tourists would be looking for in their experience visiting London. Licensed London Taxi Driver since 1987, license originally issued my the Metropolitan Police of London. Qualified Taxi Guide, issued by the Worshipful Company of Hackney Carriage Drivers.

    Raymond is an excellent tour guide. He has extensive knowledge on England history, and Royalty. His communication is excellent, and he brings a fun sense of humor to the tour. We really enjoyed our time with Raymond, and would recommend him for your London & England touring.

    Raymond did a terrific job. From picking us up on time to delivering us right to our hotel in London. The ride was filled with British History and explanations of the political system and the Monarchy. His tour of Windsor and the castle was great. He knew where to park so baggage would be safe and knew the Castle backwards and forwards. We lucked into a ceremony that...

    We had an amazing tour with Ray! He was very accommodating to our young children. He kept it fun for them and kept them involved in the tour. He was extremely knowledgable and answered all of our questions. We saw all of the sights planned, and even had a front row seat to see the king and queen leaving for their mornings. I would 100% recommend Ray and would do another...
