"In London everyone is different and that means anyone can fit in. " (Paddington Bear) Hello my name is Charlotte, or Lotty and I'd love to show you around London and beyond. I love storytelling and the way it moves, engages and excites, connecting people and places with history. London is a two thousand year old history book, jam packed full of tales. Stories of disaster and devastation - fires, bombs, plagues and destruction, yet it rises time and time again, still standing as the most forward thinking, dynamic, multicultural city in the world! Bursting with parks and palaces, museums and art galleries, shopping destinations and best of all, the epitome of pomp and circumstance! Together let's plan a day seeing all the places you might recognise from books or screen, let me bring to life the people and places where the action took place. - I am a qualified London blue badge tour guide, studying for two years at university level and completing and passing a comprehensive series of written and practical exams. - BA (Hons) Acting - first class honours - Drama teacher I am not a driver guide. I can accompany you in your vehicle or I can arrange for a separate car and driver.

This tour is a fantastic introduction to London for first time visitors, those short on time or those wanting an overview before exploring in more depth. London is a two thousand year history book, full of fascinating history. Together we will see the big hits - the sites that perhaps you have read about, seen on screen or seen on social media. We will get photos in all the best spots, hear about extraordinary people and learn some fun facts that you can take home and share with your friends. We will start in Westminster, the focal point of power, politics, religion and royalty. See the exterior of Buckingham palace and hear about the guards, pomp and ceremony and historic events that its been the backdrop for. After exploring the area of Westminster, we will take a double-decker red bus or tube, to explore a different part of London that is home to St Paul's cathedral, Shakespeare's Globe theatre and finish at London's oldest food market - Borough market, perfect for that after tour cheeky pint or cuppa!
This is the suggested itinerary, but we can always customise your private tour, to suit your individual needs and interests.
