Hi, my name is Tom and I am a proud Londoner. I was born and grew up in Camden Town, the product of Irish parents who arrived in the 1950s. I am a family man and have both children and grandchildren. My hobbies include walking and reading, usually about history, and I am interested in all sport but particularly football. I completed the world famous 'Knowledge of London' and qualified as a Professional London Black Cab Driver back in 1999. For me, London is an ongoing love affair and I am constantly seeking to extend my knowledge. I qualified as a London Taxi Tour Guide with the Worshipful Company of Hackney Carriage Drivers in 2018, and I have recently graduated as a Clerkenwell and Islington Tour Guide as well. I consider it a privilege to show you my city which has over 2000 years of history, and I can offer you a tour adapted entirely to your interests. We can take in any or all of the classics but you may prefer to explore a little off the beaten track and see some of the rarely visited but no less interesting places. The perfect way to achieve this is a combination of London taxi and walking; I offer both. And there is no need to feel guilty about riding around in my completely electric, eco-friendly taxi with seating for five guests. Most guests say that my tours are good fun, and I know you will take away some interesting facts, you may even pick up some cockney slang - hope to see you soon! Clerkenwell and Islington Guiding Association Qualified Guide 2022 Worshipful Company of Hackney Carriage Drivers Taxi Tour Guide 2018 The Knowledge of London - 1999 Although I am a multi-qualified & registered guide I am not a Blue Badge guide so am unable to guide inside of Westminster Abbey, St Paul's Cathedral, Tower of London & Windsor Castle. However, I can accompany you on your visit.

    We had an incredible day with Thomas, whose guidance inspired everyone to embrace the moment. He skillfully met the diverse interests of both of my kids while keeping us moving throughout the city! We will definitely use him the next time we are back in London.

    It was perfect for my mom who has difficulty walking. We were in a taxi and able to park easily to hop out and see the sights. Thomas was knowledgeable and funny.

    We have to say we had a GREAT, WONDERFUL & INFORMATIVE time with Thomas. He was on time, courteous and polite and he knew his craft. We were quite impressed with his knowledge of London. We would highly recommend Thomas for any future tours of London.
