A Very Warm Hello! My name is Rosalind and I'd love to help you create some special memories of London. Having chosen to live here for over 30 years post University, I want to share my contagious enthusiasm for this amazing city with you. Whether you are interested in the 'big sights' or getting deeper under the skin, come with me to learn and be entertained and to go home with more than just photos. My tours are all on foot , but at times when it makes sense we jump on a bus or take a river boat. Walking is the best way to soak up the vibes of this city and you get to see so much more. I'd love to tell you of all my incredible experiences of watching the Queen's funeral from the front row on The Mall, waving at The King on the balcony of Buckingham Palace after his coronation or shaking Princess Diana's hand. I'd also love to share my knowledge of the history of London but don't worry ! I won't bore you with endless dry facts that you can read in a book. I will bring 2000 years of history to life through what we see and the stories I tell. As a mother of 3, I am very comfortable with family groups along with adult groups, couples or indeed individuals. We will go at your own pace, stop for refreshments if necessary and everyone will get involved. There is of course plenty of time for questions and chat and to hear first-hand about life for a Londonner. Honestly, I never bore of revealing London's secrets. I'd be delighted to help you make some wonderful memories of your time here. I look forward to welcoming you soon. Please get in touch!
