I am a Blue Badge Tourist Guide, accredited through the Institute of Tourist Guiding in London, qualified and insured to conduct tours of Southern England, including the counties of Hampshire, Dorset, Wiltshire, Berkshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight. It is with the greatest pleasure that I invite you to take a tour around southern England. I am a 'Hampshire Hog', born and bred, and take great pride in showing visitors the New Forest and the jewels hidden within. Take a stroll around the medieval walls of Southampton. Learn where Henry VIII met Anne Boleyn in secret, and find out why there is a pineapple on top of the roof of the Royal Pier Gatehouse. Visit Seacity Museum (Southampton) and learn about the most famous ship in human history, the 'Titanic'. Then take a walking tour of Southampton to discover the memorials and buildings that are associated with it. Make a pilgrimage to Salisbury Cathedral that has the tallest medieval spire in Europe (123 metres), and possesses one of the four remaining copies of the original 'Magna Carta'; a document that established our legal system. Discover Winchester, the old capital of England, where Alfred the Great ruled and is home to King Arthur's Round Table. Let's design a tailor-made tour, just for you. . . . !!! The tours that I advertise are assuming that we start and finish in Southampton. Please contact me before booking your tour, as other pick-up and drop-off points will affect the cost of the tour. - Blue Badge Tourist Guide for the central southern region of England (I.T.G) - Green Badge Tourist Guide for Southampton (I.T.G) - Member of the Institute of Tourist Guiding - Member of the British Guild of Tourist Guides.

Andrew was fantastic. His knowledge of Salisbury Cathedral is astounding. The New Forest was beautiful. The four of us went on his half-day tour of Salisbury Cathedral and medieval Salisbury between our B2B cruises out of Southampton. Having a driver and a guide was very helpful. After the cathedral, Andrews gave us a tour of Salisbury. Andrew made our day out worry-free, and even gave the best advice about which food truck to try during market day. Salisbury, we'll return!

If we could give Andrew & his driver Ian more than 5 stars we certainly would. Our plans changed slightly the day before our tour & after a brief discussion during which Andrew assessed our interests he adapted our tour to not only meet but exceed our expectations. He shard extensive knowledge in a way that made history come alive and the fun and camaraderie shared made it a day to remember. We wish we had planned for additional days with him. Thanks you Andrew for a truly amazing unforgettable day!
