About Tour Guide Alan A.
Why Choose Me?
I bring over 13 years of professional guiding experience, combined with a genuine passion for bringing history and stories to life. My tours go beyond simply reciting facts I create engaging, memorable experiences tailored to each group. Whether it’s the pageantry of the Changing of the Guard, the intrigue of a Jack the Ripper tour, or the rich history of Westminster and the City, I make every story immersive and meaningful.
My time working at the Royal Albert Hall has also given me unique insight into one of London’s most iconic cultural landmarks, adding depth and authenticity to my tours.
In addition to London, I run tours in my home city of Liverpool a place rich in history and character. I also run Tours in my home city of Liverpool, famous for having the best football team in the country Everton, as well as Liverpool. From its maritime heritage and connections to the Titanic, to its world-famous music scene shaped by The Beatles, Liverpool offers a fascinating story at every turn. Highlights include the historic Royal Albert Dock and the remarkable fact that the city boasts two cathedrals on the same road.
My tours are interactive, well paced, and adapted to suit different interests, ages, and backgrounds. My goal is simple: to give travellers not just a tour, but a story they’ll remember long after they leave.

Hello! I would like to welcome you to London, my home and the city I love. As well as being an experienced Blue Badge Tour Guide (the ultimate qualification in guiding) I am also a City of London Guide, City of Westminster Guide, Windsor and Eton Guide and Tate Gallery Guide, so wherever we go you'll be in good hands. Only Blue Badge tour guides are permitted to guide inside certain locations, such as Westminster Abbey, Windsor Castle and the Tower of London. My aim is to provide you with enthusiastic, informative and fun private tours which ensure that your London experience will be the best. I was born in the North of England but spent much of my childhood living in India and the Middle East. I moved to London for a year to study on a postgraduate course and never left - working, bringing up my children and developing my career in guiding here. Apart from a few years living in Japan and Singapore, London has been my home for 30 years. I believe there is something for everyone here in London, 2000 years of history rubbing shoulders in a contemporary city with modern architecture, fashion and art. Whatever you are interested in, whether it is royalty, castles, palaces, traditions, galleries, museums or modern culture I can tailor a tour for you. My bespoke tours include walking tours, tours by public transport ( bus, tube, boat or train), or I can organize a car with a driver or a minibus. Within London we can cover the major sites--Westminster Abbey, Royal London, Buckingham Palace, Changing of the Guard, Churchill War Rooms, St Paul's Cathedral, Tower of London or explore less well-known districts like Bermondsey, Shoreditch or Spitalfields. Out of London Windsor Castle, Stonehenge, Salisbury, Bath, Dover, Leeds Castle, Hever Castle are a few of the many wonderful places that can be easily reached in a day trip. It would be my great pleasure to welcome you to my city and I hope to see you soon. . . . Liz Covid 19 notice - I have been certified "Good to Go" by Visit England. This means that I am fully compliant with best practice to look after my guests on our tours

Hello, fancy a day out from busy Central London and enjoy cycling? Why not join me and see real parts of outer London on our bikes. I was lucky enough to grow up in a glorious area of South West London and apart from travelling to see the world I've always returned. I love meeting new people and showing them my favourite local places by what I feel is the best mode of travel. . . a bike. This historic area is set on a beautiful part of the River Thames, it has old Royal hunting grounds containing deer, world famous places like the 16th Century home of royalty Hampton Court Palace + UNESCO Kew Botanic Gardens. It is only 30-45 minutes from Central London by train or tube and a peaceful place to visit or base yourself whilst visiting London. I hope to see you in my area of London for a bike trip soon Ginette
