From the time I went on a school trip visiting the great religious houses and castles of England at the age of 11, history had me hooked. Graduating in History, I later ran and organized tours for over 30 years throughout Great Britain and beyond. I love showing people the very best of England and despite guiding for such a long time, there are always new places and new things to learn. I've toured throughout Great Britain and more, both as a guide for private groups and smaller organized tours. My main interest is customizing my tours to fit my passenger's needs. The type of tours I run vary considerably; whether it be gardens, castles, stone circles or historic towns and cities but what they all have in common is that they're surrounded by the English countryside, rich in both history and variety. I am a London taxi driver (black cab) and as such we have to pass the fiendishly difficult "The Knowledge" of London which means, amongst many things, we have to know over 10, 500 roads and thousands of points of interest. Our access to London's bus lanes means that we can navigate our way quickly and efficiently through the busy streets of the city. The taxi I drive can sit up to 6 people, is adapted to take wheelchairs and has a perspex roof for a better touring experience. I am a qualified and licensed tour guide through the Worshipful Company of Hackney Carriage drivers. Bachelor of Arts, Humanities (History), University of Central Lancashire. Worshipful Company of Hackney Carriage drivers taxi guide. Full PCV (coach driver's licence) 30+ years of experience tour guiding. Not able to guide within Windsor Castle, Westminster Abbey or the Tower of London. However I am available to escort guests.
