Hello and welcome to London. I have been guiding in the UK, London and Europe for 10 years and I love my job. I pride myself on a passion for history and above all, the animation of its stories and a bespoke, immersive experience that makes a tour truly memorable. I try to make my tours experiences. I like to walk inside ruins, enter places not often visited or take to the top of Londons buildings for unrivalled views of London. I like to show my guests the secret London, the local London, the unusual facts of our famous landmarks and the best parts of this small green island I call my home. From traditional pubs to local markets, from the big sights to the most photogenic areas of the city I aim to avoid the crowds and get you to the best spots and to witness all the city has to offer. From London in a day to Stonehenge and the countryside, I pride myself in getting as much as possible into your valuable time at a pace that suits you. No matter which guide you choose, I wish you an enjoyable time in this great city.

Rock n Roll may have started in the USA but it was in London that it was shaped into the sounds we know today. Journey with me through Soho, the West End and the locations made famous in the swinging sixties that my parents knew. I was brought up around the music industry and remember many of the sites in the 80's along with the musicians that made this area famous. We will see where Led Zeppelin was formed, where the Rolling Stones held their first audition, the famous Abbey Road crossing and the haunts of the world's greatest music artists. Some of whom still frequent the area today. We will see where some of the worlds most well known tracks were recorded and learn about some of the lesser known facts that shaped London's music history. From Jimi Hendrix, Bowie, The Beatles, Clapton & The Who. Retrace the footsteps of the iconic landmarks that made rock music history in London. This tour is great in the evening when soho starts to come alive. We can finish at a rock n blues Club.

Most of the sites are within easy walking distance. Public transport or a private taxi will be required to get to Abbey Road if required by the customer.
