A guided walk is a great way to spend a couple of hours or longer.  If you’re an individual, a family or a bigger group contact me for an entertaining and informative guided walk. 
 

You can choose from a wide variety of themes including Roman London, American Connections, the Great Fire of London, Historic Highlights and many others.  Clerkenwell & Islington are also great places to explore.

 

Like Dr Samuel Johnson I never tire of London and would love to show you around this beautiful and historic City.  I am a City of London Guide as well as a Clerkenwell & Islington Guide.  I’m a founder member of City Sidewalks and we just go from strength to strength discovering new areas of interest.

 

All my walks last approximately 2 hours or you can book a half day or full day tour. 


I can also arrange for a guided tour in other European languages.   A selection of my walks are listed below:

 

Discover some of the many AMERICAN CONNECTIONS from the early Elizabethan adventurers to more recent times.

 

Hear about the ROMAN CITY OF LONDINIUM and see the remains of a Roman Temple, an amphitheatre, a fortress and much more.

 

THE GREAT FIRE OF LONDON destroyed most of the medieval City.  Walk from Pudding Lane to Pye Corner to see how the City recovered.

 

Discover Smithfield, THE DARK SIDE OF LONDON  which is rich in ghost stories, a murder mystery, the site of public executions for over 400 years, the infamous Newgate Gaol and lots more.

 

Walk in the footsteps of the most famous Lord Mayor on this TURN AGAIN WHITTINGTON walk and discover the secret of his cat.

 

Discover the area north of the City of London and hear tales of RELIGION & REBELLION IN CLERKENWELL.

 

Hear about the artistic and literary BLOOMSBURY GROUP, walk both banks of the River Thames on the RIVERSIDE WALK, explore the most important financial district in the world on the BUSINESS CITY walk and the many writers who lived and worked in the City on my LITERARY City walk. 

 

The HISTORIC CITY HIGHLIGHTS is a popular walk with visitors who don’t know the City very well.

 

These are just a few of my ideas.
