About Tour Guide Rich B.
I’m a born-and-bred Londoner and qualified London guide, and I’d love to show you the city I live in, love and still enjoy exploring.
Of course, we can cover London’s iconic must-sees, with great stories and some of the best photo opportunities along the way. But I also love getting off the beaten track, creating personalised itineraries and showing guests the places, neighbourhoods and hidden corners that don’t always make it into the guidebooks.
And if you need a little local help while you’re here — transport advice, restaurant recommendations, luggage storage or simply where to go next — just ask. As a Londoner, I’m always happy to point you in the right direction.
As the saying goes, “When a man is tired of London, he is tired of life.”
It would be a pleasure to help you discover my London and make some brilliant London memories along the way.
$350/ per group
