I am a professional Blue Badge Tour Guide qualified to guide throughout the whole of London and South East England providing quality private tours customized to what you want to see and do. As a holder of the coveted Blue Badge, I am one of the privileged few permitted to guide within the Tower of London, Westminster Abbey, Canterbury Cathedral, Windsor Castle and many other historic royal palaces. My specialties include London highlights - just right for first timers in the capital, and for those returning to London, the hidden gems. My personal favourites include Tudor Royalty in South East England especially the life and times of King Henry VIII from Hampton Court Palace to Hever Castle; Canterbury and its cathedral, shore excursions from Dover and the glorious gardens of England. It's the region's social history that really excites me - how people lived in earlier times, the land and cityscapes they developed and the contrasts with today's lifestyles. Bringing these to life is a passion and a privilege. I have combined my earlier career experiences with my best-loved interests to present the delights of the region in an entertaining & informative style.

If you are lucky enough to find you have a second day, or you are on a return visit, you may want to spend more time exploring the lesser known gems that the city has to offer.
