I am a History teacher in London of over 30 years’ experience. I graduated from Queen Mary [University London] where I first had the opportunity to take walking tours of the East End with City Walks. A large section of my degree concerned the History of London. I have previously worked as a self-employed tour guide for Britmovietours and was instrumental in the development and delivery of their Jack the Ripper tour 2009-11. More recently I have been working on behalf of Original London Walks guiding their Maritime riverside walk and their Sunday Boat tour[in conjunction with the Brunel Museum]. I also work as a volunteer on behalf of Wilton’s Music Hall [both as a tour guide and usher]. In 2014 I spent the summer at Fort Phil Kearny, Wyoming USA, primarily as a tour guide to the Fetterman Battlefield and undertook desk and museum duties at the Fort itself. I am really excited by what I can share with you.
Secret places, famous places, unassuming places. Most walk by without a glance. Maybe, just maybe a glance is all it needs for a thought to stir. Your guide will be revealing of secrets past, several secrets actually born in History past.

Free tours do not have a set price, instead, each person gives the guru at the end of the tour the amount that he or she considers appropriate (these usually range from €10 to $50 depending on satisfaction with the tour).
