About Tour Guide Ginette A.
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
