Hey! I am that rare thing, a native Londoner. As someone born and raised in this great city, there is nothing I don't know or places to go. And I'm only too happy to share my knowledge with you. I have a love of culture and history and can show you everything from standard sightseeing to unusual, less known places. Be it street art tours, beautiful quarters like Hampstead to hidden walks along the Thames detailing it's history. I also have a wealth of knowledge to help you during your stay, be it, where to eat, where to go and anything else you might need assistance with. All tours are bespoke and tailored to your needs.

I would love to show you around my home town, London, and share my passion for this great city. Being born here (I used to play at the Tower of London as a child), I've witnessed how it has developed over the years. I've been lucky enough to work for a member of the UK Parliament, spending much time at the Houses of Parliament. I also spent many years working in Europe, and in my tours I like to talk about the many international influences on London. On my walks my aim is to bring history to life, and most important, to make sure we have fun.

Hi, I’m Andreea, a passionate Londoner by choice for over 10 years—originally from Romania, but completely in love with this city ever since I arrived. I like uncovering hidden gems and bringing the stories of Regency-era London to life. My walking tours started by guiding visiting friends, and naturally grew into curated experiences like my Regency London tour, inspired by my love of novels and historic places. When I’m not exploring London’s streets, I’m traveling the world—over 40 countries and 5 continents so far—which helps me connect with travelers from all walks of life. I’d love to help you discover the magic of London through a local’s eyes!

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.

When I first arrived in London, it was a city full of old, beautiful buildings that meant absolutely nothing to me. I was not 'born and bred here', but I chose to make this city my own. I dived into a history of people who lived and shaped London. Turns out, they also lied, made mistakes and were very, very randy. London was shaped by scandals, and I found the best ones to tell you. I am a qualified London tour guide and a storyteller who is ready to take you around from the iconic landmarks of London to hidden alleyways and streets off the beaten path.

I am a qualified London tour guide with many years of experience of touring guests around this great city. I bring a huge amount of knowledge, enthusiasm and fun to my tours. I love showing this city to guests from around the world, including the highlights but also the hidden gems.

Here's a little more information about myself. I'm a born and bred Londoner and have lived and worked within this great city for the majority of my life (the exception being a 4-year stint in Switzerland). Previously working within Royal Mail followed by the Global Foreign Exchange Markets. I am now a fully qualified London 'Cabbie', qualified taxi guide, and offer private and personal tours of London and beyond in an ICONIC London black cab (not just any London Black Cab but the new Zero Emission Capable Electric Cab), neither of which I ever thought I would be doing, but I can wholeheartedly say two of the best decisions I have possibly made in my working life. Firstly becoming a 'London Cabbie' gave me the new challenge and freedom I needed and then from there getting involved in offering tours, I honestly fell in love with my hometown again whilst doing the knowledge, and showing the sights of this fantastic city and creating wonderful memories on my tours is hard to beat. My aim is to give YOU the tour that YOU want when YOU want, always keeping in mind that it is YOUR vacation and YOUR memories, and to show you the history of London (and beyond), both the famous and lesser-known sites in a fun and relaxed manner. Please take your time looking at what is available in the tour section, but always remembering that my aim is to tailor each tour to YOUR own needs and requests. Remember it's . . . YOUR time, YOUR tour, YOUR memories! Licensed London Taxi Driver, having completed "The Knowledge of London" Qualified London Taxi Guide (accredited by the City University) I do not hold a Blue Badge so I can accompany you inside the Tower of London, St. Paul's Cathedral and Westminster Abbey but sadly I cannot guide inside these historical sites.

“Fun Tour with Kyle!”
I chose to book with Kyle because the Camden Town walk sounded unique to other things I was seeing in London. Kyle has so much knowledge and passion for the area and the music scene of days past. I was travelling alone but with him I felt like I was on a journey with a friend for a few hours! Primrose Hill is a steep walk but worth it if you are capable. We finished off with a walk through a scenic canal route. At the end Kyle made sure I knew exactly what train routes I should take for my next destination. As a solo, female traveler that meant a lot to me! Go With Kyle

Thank you Kelly. I’m so happy you had a great time and that you really enjoyed the tour. I like to make people feel as if it’s a friend showing them around London as well as a guide, so I appreciate I achieved this. It was lovely to meet you and glad I could contribute to you having a wonderful visit to London.
