Hello, and welcome to London! I'm Don, a London Blue Badge Guide since 2016, a graduate of Oxford university and the former Director of the London Society. Let me take you round this incredible city - from the sites that every visitor must see, to the places that even most Londoners don't know about. Whether your stay is for half a day or for a week or more, I can help you experience the very best of London at a pace that suits you. Discover the history of the capital and its hidden by-ways, experience the world's greatest museums and galleries, visit Royal palaces and 1, 000 year old fortresses, see the Changing of the Guard, walk the streets down which Shakespeare, Dickens, Pepys and Churchill (not to mention the Beatles, David Bowie and the Rolling Stones) once strolled, go to some of the most famous shopping streets and establishments in the world. There is so much to see and do, and I can help you get the most from your visit. Official London Blue Badge Guide Member of the Institute of Tourist Guiding I am not a driver. I can arrange for a separate car and driver.

Overview of your London tour

Let a London Blue Badge Guide show you round some of the finest paintings in the world with this tour of London's famous National Gallery. From before the Renaissance to Van Gogh, we'll see some legendary works of art and hear about some of the greatest painters of the last 750 years. The gallery has nearly 2,500 artworks on display and is one of the world's great art museums, but without a guide it can be a little intimidating. I'm here to make sure you see the very best of the collection.

Your London tour itinerary

We'll see treasures from the collection from artists such as Van Gogh, Titian, Leonardo da Vinci, Turner, Constable, Rembrandt, Botticelli, Raphael and more.
