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 had a fantastic tour with James. He had great stories, great information, took wonderful care of our group, and we enjoyed spending the day with him. This is definitely the guide with whom you want to see Stonehenge!

Tour was great. James was very communicative right from the beginning and was able to accommodate our dietary requests. We have two kids and James was able to keep them interested during the tour. The tour had a good balance in terms of history and fun which kept both adults and kids engaged throughout. When I asked James whether we could combine Windsor into the trip he was very honest and recommended that we don't as the day would become too long. It was the right call and ensured that we had a relaxed yet fun filled trip. Will definitely recommend James to anyone who is interested in a tour around the London area. Thanks James for the great time we had.

Absolutely superb! James is personable, deeply knowledgeable and readily adapts to multi-generational groups. The tour itself is well worth your time and James provides the insights and inside details at each venue that makes it all the more special. Highly recommended!

We had a wonderful day trip with James through the Cotswolds countryside and to the Roman Baths. Absolutely a 5-star tour!! James is a knowledgable guide - we learned so much of the history of the area and especially the Roman Baths. He communicated very quickly - this tour was easy to set up and customize to our travel needs (ie pick up and drop off locations). James has a comfortable Mercedes and is a great driver. Very personable and looked out for all our comfort and needs for a very full day. This was my first ToursByLocals experience and I would 100% recommend James. I wish he were available for these tours in more countries !!
