Hi there, and welcome. I hope you are looking forward to your visit to London. So many people call London home but like many of them, I was not actually born here. London always called to me growing up in the East Anglian countryside. At the turn of the millennium, I finally made the move. And I have never looked back! Working initially running a chain of bars in Soho, I was engrossed by the history of the city. The vibrant mix of people (both residents and tourists) and cultures have held my fascination for nearly 20 years now. I moved on from working in bars to become a chef. I worked in some of London's finest hotels, all the while reading up and exploring all London had to offer. With the arrival of my young family, I wanted more flexibility in my work life balance. I decided to take on one of my greatest challenges yet. I was to study 'The Knowledge' to become a Licensed London Taxi Driver. Learning so much to pass these exams whetted my appetite for more. I was soon studying again. This time to become a Green Badge London Taxi Guide with The Worshipful Company of Hackney Carriage Drivers. People that have taken a tour with me comment on my enthusiasm, which I take as a great compliment. I do admit that it is not hard as there is so much to love about London. I like to think that living and working in different areas in London for the last 20 years gives me an insight different from many other tour guides. It gives me great pleasure to be able to share my unique experiences with people visiting this great city. I also love to hear some of the stories my customers share with me. You never stop learning. Most recently I have taken myself back to the classroom to improve my amateur Photography. Whilst not professing to be David Bailey, we can always take the opportunity to capture some great snapshots of your trip to London. Why not join me for a drive around London?

Upon departing your hotel we will head west through the rolling countryside to the Ancient Town of Bath, a World Heritage Spa City, for a guided walking tour of Bath City Centre and visits to the Ancient Roman Bath. It is fascinating to think that these Roman baths and temples were lost for almost 1400 years! Upon leaving Bath, we will proceed on to Stonehenge, an UNESCO World Heritage site. The stone circle has been on this site for over 4500 years and is one of the wonders of the world and the best-known prehistoric monument in Europe. Once we depart Stonehenge we will return to your hotel in London or another agreed location.
