I am a lawyer, historian and official City of London and Westminster tour guide. Introducing guests to the splendours and secrets of my hometown is my passion. I try to make my tours a mixture of fun and fact (with some of the facts being funny and some of the fun being factual). I would love to arrange a private tour that will make your visit to London truly memorable. All of my income from tour guiding is donated to charity - currently World Jewish Relief's Ukraine Crisis Appeal.

I LOVE London! But I really KNOW London too... I'm proud to be a Blue Badge Tourist Guide, one of a select few who have passed the highest criteria to become a fully qualified London guide. I hold other London guiding qualifications - I am a City of London Guide and Lecturer, A Westminster Guide and a St Paul's Cathedral Guide. I specialise in private, customised (to YOUR requirements) London tours, giving in-depth insight into the best locations such as Westminster Abbey, the Tower of London, Windsor Castle, Hampton Court, St Paul's Cathedral, the Churchill War Rooms, Kew Gardens, Buckingham Palace (summer opening), the British Museum, National Gallery and many more. .... and we can discover hidden alleyways, explore ancient churches, stand where Dickens or Shakespeare or the Romans would have stood...London's many secrets from so many centuries. Guiding is my passion, but I am also a dog-loving, countryside-walking, museum junkie, knit-aholic, who loves to curl up with a good book (I collect old London books) with a lovely cup of tea and a slice of something nice on the side. Come with me to discover London. Whether this is your first visit or you've been here before, I will make sure that you have a wonderful time and take home memories to cherish - and lots of fabulous photos!

Hi, I'm Barney. I have 14 years of experience guiding guests around Scotland, taking day tours out of Edinburgh. Whether I take people on scenic tours, or to historical sites like castles, or whisky tasting, I'm reminded every day that I really do have the best job in the world, in my favourite country in the world, and I'd like to share that with you. I was born in Edinburgh, and graduated from the University of Edinburgh in 2008 with a history degree, so I know what I'm talking about when it comes to Scottish history. But I also consider myself a storyteller, and my main job is to entertain you, so please don't feel that you're going to get dry lectures on history and culture. You don't need to remember a single thing I tell you, so long as you enjoy yourself. Also, please don't feel constrained by the standard tours I offer. I have many years of guiding experience, so if there's something you want to see that's not listed, just send me a message through Go With Guide and ask me to create a personalised itinerary just for you, which I'm always happy to do.

Irene M.
Born in Milan, I spent my adult life in Edinburgh where I moved in 2009. This wonderful city stole my heart and here I am! Throughout this period I had the chance to get to know the city and dive in its history, culture and traditions. I hold a PhD and a Masters degree in History of Art from the University of Edinburgh. I have been working as a tour guide in Edinburgh since 2015. My academic background, teaching experience and passion for history, motivate me to create interesting tour outlines and narratives. I enjoy bringing the stories behind monuments and streets to life! Having worked in the Education Department of local art galleries, I also love to create activities for families and younger audiences. I am a foodie and always looking for the best eating spots in town! I'd be happy to give you insider's tips and recommend off-the-beaten path restaurants, cafes, bars and food markets. I am also an avid reader, I enjoy Scotland crime novels among other genres - nothing better than a Tartan Noir story! Despite my reluctance to sit on planes, I love travelling. Guiding clients from all over the world is one of the highlights of my job: it is so enriching to meet people from different countries and share experiences. Having travelled widely makes me sensible to visitors' needs and I realise the importance of meeting expectations. For this reason, all my tours can be customised. I would love to hear from you and create your unique and personalised itinerary!

Hello! I am Manuel, an experienced and professional tour guide with extensive knowledge of the historic city centre of Cambridge. My walking tours describe men and women whose ideas and actions have affected nearly every area of human endeavour. It is very likely that someone from your region or country is already in this city to either work or study. How can that be possible in a city of less than 150,000 people? Come to one of my tours and find out. I will ensure that, no matter your background or age, your visit to Cambridge is a memorable experience. I hope to see you soon!

A life-long Cambridge resident, Dick began his education at St John’s College Choir School. He has been in love with the city and university ever since. Before qualifying as a tour guide Dick taught in Cambridge and nearby Suffolk. He has played and coached rugby locally and internationally. Dick was coach of the Cambridge University Rugby team, “The Blues”, from 2001 to 2010 helping them to beat Oxford, ‘the other place,’ six times. He also coached the Swedish team at the Women’s World Cup Finals in 2010. A true local, you will find him on the Real Tennis courts at Grange Road, out with his cycling club or in one of Cambridge’s many real ale pubs. Dick says “Cambridge has something to show everyone, with stories of famous people and events at every corner”

I am an art and architectural historian. I have worked at the National Gallery and other Museums in London and abroad. I moved to the University city of Cambridge over 35 years ago, lecturing at the University museums, researching and delivering a great variety of courses to locals and visitors alike in the adult sector. Art is my passion that continues to feed my own learning, which I love to share with like minded people. I aim to entertain and educate but above all communicate my own sense of wonder and joy in the world around us. The redemptive power of creativity has never been more vital and desirable in our lives than it is today ! I am keen to motivate, challenge and engage, sharing my knowledge and experience with others. I have organised many short and extended trips around England and abroad for adult students to visit sights of artistic and historical interest over the last 25 years. I am indeed privileged to enjoy my role as a tour guide in such a unique city like Cambridge I have high expectations of myself and always aim to create a high quality, personalised experience for travellers. My reviews are all 5 star ! I have a B. A. in the History of Art with French, an M. A. in Material culture & the built environment, a P. G. C. E. in Art education in Art & Design & T. E. F. L. I have trained town and museum guides locally. My research is ongoing and I am always writing the next chapter ! My tours will give you the benefit of my many years of knowledge and experience and as someone who understands the locality and will take you to the heart of its story. You already know the unique value of the authentic experience. You have arrived at Cambridge, your destination, but now the journey can truly begin, so let me reveal to you what makes this city worth visiting ! Hopefully you will depart enriched by the experience and excited to share your special memories back home.

I am a fully-qualified Blue Badge guide with experience all around Scotland. If your guests want to find out all about Edinburgh and Scotland then I am the guide you need. I am proud of Scotland and its history and wear the kilt when I can! I have also lived in Spain and Italy and guide in Italian too, I have had a number of different work and cultural experiences and I also currently work as a teacher - teaching English to foreign students and I have met and enjoyed teaching English to a number of Japanese students too! I have a wide range of interests with my knowledge of the history of Scotland being my top passion, with perhaps the Jacobite struggle being my favourite period. I am also enthusiastic about the geography and nature of this wonderful country so I can talk in detail about the wildlife that you will see when you are here. Another great interest of mine is Sport and in particular football and golf. I can’t wait to show you as much as possible in your time here and make sure that your stay was fun, enjoyable and that you have acquired a lot of knowledge about Scotland!
