I am a Blue Badge Tourist Guide, accredited through the Institute of Tourist Guiding in London, qualified and insured to conduct tours of Southern England, including the counties of Hampshire, Dorset, Wiltshire, Berkshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight. It is with the greatest pleasure that I invite you to take a tour around southern England. I am a 'Hampshire Hog', born and bred, and take great pride in showing visitors the New Forest and the jewels hidden within. Take a stroll around the medieval walls of Southampton. Learn where Henry VIII met Anne Boleyn in secret, and find out why there is a pineapple on top of the roof of the Royal Pier Gatehouse. Visit Seacity Museum (Southampton) and learn about the most famous ship in human history, the 'Titanic'. Then take a walking tour of Southampton to discover the memorials and buildings that are associated with it. Make a pilgrimage to Salisbury Cathedral that has the tallest medieval spire in Europe (123 metres), and possesses one of the four remaining copies of the original 'Magna Carta'; a document that established our legal system. Discover Winchester, the old capital of England, where Alfred the Great ruled and is home to King Arthur's Round Table. Let's design a tailor-made tour, just for you. . . . !!! The tours that I advertise are assuming that we start and finish in Southampton. Please contact me before booking your tour, as other pick-up and drop-off points will affect the cost of the tour. - Blue Badge Tourist Guide for the central southern region of England (I.T.G) - Green Badge Tourist Guide for Southampton (I.T.G) - Member of the Institute of Tourist Guiding - Member of the British Guild of Tourist Guides.

    Andy's Titanic Tour was AMAZING! We took the train down from London with our two boys and loved every minute. Touring the SeaCity Museum and then the walking tour of Southampton showed how impactful the loss of the Titanic was on this community. As an added bonus, Andy took us to where the Mayflower actually set sail for America. Highly recommend working with Andy!

    Dear Jarrad, Thank you so much for your amazing review. It was a real pleasure to meet you, and your beautiful family. Your sons knowledge of the Titanic and American history is phenomenal. They will make brilliant guides. Best wishes, Andrew

    The experience was like meeting a family member who showed us the sights. In his friendly gregarious style, Andrew made a hill with a clump of trees come alive with history. Even when a traffic accident blocked a road we needed to take to Stonehenge, Andrew took another route--explaining other sites along the way and circling back to Stonehenge. He has a remarkable...

    Andrew did an outstanding job of guiding me through several extraordinary areas including a ship museum near Beaulieu, the Montague estate, the nearby car museum, and several areas of interest in Southampton, including a poignant memorial to the victims of the Titanic. I especially appreciate his advice to adjust the original tour itinerary, which allowed more time for...
