Hello I'm Joanna, Follow me in the footsteps of the millions who have called this fine city home through 2000 years of history. As a Londoner I love to share scandalous stories and fascinating facts with newcomers and lifelong residents alike. I'm an official city of London guide. Particular favourite topics for me are the City of London. Hampstead, Primrose Hill, Roman London and the Great Fire of London I have over 15 years experience with a wide variety of audiences including independent travellers and families. When I'm not guiding, I run a not for profit organisation Speak Street, where we introduce people to history through fun social learning. I'm a member of the Stationers' Company and love sharing the history of the London livery companies. I have the Freedom of the City of London which in entitles me to drive my Sheep over London Bridge free of charge, just one of the weird and wonderful London traditions you can discover during your visit. Whether you want to discover hidden parts of the city or pack in some of the classic highlights I'm happy to create a bespoke tour that works for you. After all that walking why not finish with pint down Dickens local pub or sip tea with the London elite. Whatever your looking for, allow me to be your Mary Poppins and make it happen.
