Overview of your London tour:

Let me take you to the genteel streets around St. James's where historic and royal shops abound and the true British gentlemen buy their outfits and dine at exclusive clubs. Starting at Green Park Tube, we will stroll pass the aristocratic home of Princess Diana before seeing the royal palace where I once attended a funeral in the amazing Throne Room. We will then explore the streets where historic shops have supplied the Royal Household for centuries and I'll tell you of many a famous name who has bought their shoes and hats here. We will see gentlemen's clubs, nip in and out of alleyways, discover a very old pub, enjoy the glory of one of London's lovely squares and as we go along, I will tell you fascinating stories about the history of this area and the wonderful characters who have left their mark. This gentle stroll of a walk is suitable for everyone, and at the end I could advice or direct you to your next London experience. The following itinerary can be customised:
