Why not check out some press reviews of my tours! https://globetotting. com/harry-potter-walking-tour/ https://metro. co. uk/2021/10/04/famous-london-sights-youll-see-on-a-james-bond-tour-mi6-hq-15350485/ https://globetotting. com/james-bond-tour-london/ Hi! I'm Dewi, and I've worked as a tour guide for the last five years. Since starting work as a tour guide in 2013, I have built up an impressive reputation for excellence and fantastic customer service with several tour guiding companies. In the autumn of 2018, after working for other companies for five years and moving from a part-time guide to Head Guide and then the maternity cover for the Tour Director of a major UK tourism provider, I decided to begin offering my own unique tours through ToursByLocals. My interest as a guide includes film and TV tourism. I originally trained as an Actor at the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama and have worked on numerous film and TV productions with companies, including the BBC. In fact, I am the only tour guide in the universe who can say they have stepped through the doors of the Tardis, as I was involved in filming a BBC Doctor Who ident in 2016. I am also a massive history geek, who loves the history of the early to mid-20th century, especially the espionage of the Second World War. I love sharing my passion for history with others. All my tours are based on things that I love: film and TV, and my passion as a performer, director and teacher of Shakespeare, and History. I can lead tours on everything from James Bond, Doctor Who and Downton Abbey to tours on the life of Sir Winston Churchill, William Shakespeare and the real world of London's secretive Spies. While being based in London, I am also able to conduct tours to South Wales (where the hit TV series Doctor Who, Torchwood, and Sherlock were filmed and where His Dark Materials was filmed in 2018) and can take customers from London to Wales if they wish to explore the beautiful Welsh countryside. I can also accompany clients to the filming locations of the Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts films (London, Oxford and Lacock) as well as the filming locations for the hit TV series and upcoming film of Downton Abbey. Given my range of film and TV knowledge, I can also create custom tours for clients interested in two or more film or TV shows but have only a short amount of time to explore the UK's vast film and TV sites. As well as working as a tour guide, I am also undertaking a PhD at Queen Mary University of London, where I am also a Teaching Associate on the London, Culture, and Performance module. Please note that I pick-up and drop-off from Heathrow is possible, but will incur a £100 supplementary fee on top of the cost of the tour. This is to cover the additional costs in travelling to and from Heathrow Airport for myself and the driver. Currently researching a Doctorate at Queen Mary University of London. Master of Science Degree Master of Arts Degree Bachelor of Arts Degree Public Liability Insurance Enhanced Disclosure Barring Service Check. I do not have any restrictions in regard to my guiding, I can offer a full range of experiences
