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.

The tour will visit every corner of the Abbey and if requested can visit the surrounds of the precincts as well. Westminster Abbey in all its glory is a living working royal peculiar. It has been an Abbey, a cathedral and has hosted the coronation of nearly every monarch since 1066 although there were a few that didn't quite make it to the altar. It has seen 16 royal weddings, many funerals including the funeral of Queen Elizabeth II and is the resting place of 30 kings and queens.
