Hi, I'm Peter - Let me show you one of the best and most diverse cities in the world! I grew up in London's multi-cultural east end and spent most of my youth as an amateur boxer which meant I was lucky enough to travel and compete abroad regularly. During this time, I lived in the USA receiving a warm welcome and great hospitality wherever I went. This is something I really value, and something I enjoy giving whilst sharing my love of London. In 1994, I completed the 'Knowledge' of London and became a London Taxi Driver, and later a London Taxi Tour Guide. I offer tours both in and out of the taxi with so much of London to be appreciated on foot! I am passionate about London's History, Culture and Architecture. My Traditional Tours offer something for everyone with interesting and fun facts supporting the classic sights of London. I once gave a tour to a family with four generations ages 9, 13, 17, 50 and 90! I enjoy popular culture In London from the 1960s and 1970s. I have an association with Liverpool, another great cultural city and birthplace to 'The Beatles'. I am the only London Beatles Tour guide vetted by Liverpool's famous Cavern Club. The Victorian era in London particularly interests me as you will notice from my Sherlock Holmes and Watson Tour! The Traditional, Beatles and Sherlock Holmes Tours are ready to book please check them out - there is plenty of choice! I also offer a Bespoke Tour service to cater for your particular interests and allow for combinations of tours. For example, we can combine themes from the published tours and there is an endless list of other themes to choose from. Listed below are ideas: •Maritime and Voyages of Discovery •Architecture and Engineering •Religion •Heritage •LGBTQ+ •Art and Performing Art •Pubs and Clubs •Tea, Coffee and Sugar History •The open air and green spaces to be enjoyed in London's parks, hidden nature reserves and city farms If you'd like to build a bespoke tour please provide me with details including a list of the themes that interest you, how long you'd like the tour, and where you would like the tour to start (e. g. hotel or train station). Thank you for reading and I hope to hear from you soon! - London Taxi Driver - London Taxi Tour Guide - Advanced Boxing Coach - Level 1 Athletics Coach I am not a Blue Badge Guide. If your tour includes visits to historical monuments such as Tower of London, St. Paul's Cathedral, Westminster Abbey, I can accompany you but cannot guide you inside them.

Overview of your London tour

Step back in time and explore The City of London, where ancient history meets modern marvels. We’ll uncover hidden passageways and pedestrian-only areas, revealing a side of London most visitors miss. Walk alongside the remnants of The London Wall, a relic of Roman Londinium, before admiring the Tower of London, Tower Bridge, and St. Paul’s Cathedral. As we take in these landmarks, I’ll share fascinating stories of the monarchy from 1066 to today. Strolling along the River Thames, you’ll see how London’s skyline blends past and future, while in the historic Square Mile, we’ll uncover the city’s rich trading history. This isn’t just a walk—it’s a journey through time, filled with stories, secrets, and unforgettable sights.

Peter was AMAZING. This was one of the best tours I’ve ever taken!

Peter was an amazing tour guide. We had an action packed, fact filled tour of The City of London that opened our eyes to the history and complexity of this area. We could not have learned this much on our own. Peter also gave us lots of supplemental information links to continue learning, so the tour really is a beginning to the learning. Peter enthusiastically guides you to whatever subjects interest each client. He’s fun to be around, a wealth of knowledge, and well worth your time and money. Book him!

Peter was a highly knowledgeable and enthusiastic guide able to answer pretty much any question we threw at him We went to seldom visited sites, avoiding the crowds Immediately after our trip peter sent pictures he had taken of us along with links to many of the things we had seen and the questions we had asked. Highly recommend, especially for history buffs.

Peter was engaging from the start and a fountain of knowledge. We assumed we would be in for a pretty standard tourist tour and were very pleasantly surprised when Peter asked us what we wanted from the tour and what our interests were so that he could tailor our tour of London. We are still digesting everything! Great experience, thank you for sharing your city with us Peter
