London is all I’ve ever known.
Let me guide you through it’s heart, using my knowledge of the city’s medieval street layout to connect London’s past to it’s present.
We’ll take in all the major landmarks along the way.
Big ben.
St Paul’s.
The Palaces.
The Tower.
But it’s not just the iconic sights we’ll explore.
They’re only a part of it. I want to show you the places that people merely drive pass, areas that you won’t find in any book or “top ten” list.
I provide a door to door service. From your chosen pick up point, to your desired drop off location.
I always jump in the back and show you a map of London to begin with, explaining exactly where the city of london starts, where the east end is, and where the city of westminster ends.
Then, we finalise the details. I cater the tour to your personal interests and tastes, whether it be history, music, hidden London, instagram London, Royal London, or a mixture of everything.
What to expect
“Thanks to all the stories, historical facts and personal insights he shared with us, the city took on a complete different dimension... We discovered places and details we would never have noticed on our own”
Then we set off. I guide you through the metropolis, using my knowledge to find the most efficient route through the city.
But you won’t just be spending four hours staring at the back of my head.
These are hybrid tours. We drive, we talk, and we walk.
With walking tours, you’re basically on a bit of string and can only go so far. With these hybrid tours, we can go anywhere. This opens up the whole of London to us, rather than just a single area.
My philosophy with cab guiding is to keep things brief, topical, and to keep it moving.
When we arrive at the big stops, I give you the chance to wander and let the scene do the talking, rather than spend 45 minutes in parliament square explaining in intricate detail the entire breadth of english history. I don’t like the sound of my own voice that much.
As we drift from area to area, that’s when I explain London to you.
It’s how I perceive the city.
The liminal parts that exist between invisible boundaries, why the roads are the way they are, why buildings look like they do, and why people act differently depending on what area you happen to be in, and what time.
Everything is related.
My main mission is thus; for you to understand London better than most people that have lived and worked in the city their whole lives.
It’s a tall order, I grant you.
But I readily accept the challenge.
