Highlights
  • London - London goes BIG on history
  • 2000 years of it. As a result the buildings and landscapes of London are unrivalled, providing some amazing scenes and the perfect material to inspire any keen photographer. This tour guide knows all the good spots for the most amazing shots.

London has lots of buildings old and new, palatial to proletarian. Do you have a preference, because I can show you Gothic, Tudor, Baroque, Paladian, Romanesque, Gothic-Revivalist, Modernist, Brutalist, Post-Modernist, and Neo-Futurist. Textures can be important too. Our buildings are constructed from timber, stone, brick, terracotta, tiles, concrete, metal and more recently glass, lots of glass.

If you like shots of streets and alleys, parks and gardens, statues and memorials, religious and secular, markets and street life or even moody and arty-farty: London has it covered!

I can work with lists, preferences, tastes or pot luck. If you’re looking for recommendations I have hundreds of them.

Cambridge presents a marvelous blend of beautiful architecture, historic significance, compact geography, and enjoyable experiences. It holds an old world charm, having been established just 42 years after Oxford University in the year 1209. The walking tour I offer takes you through some of the university’s most impressive College buildings, from Kings to Trinity, Pembroke to Corpus, and Queens’.

We’ll also discover some ancient churches, including one with remnants of Anglo-Saxon design. We also get to enjoy a serene walk alongside the placid banks of the River Cam.

The journey through the University is a journey through various disciplines - literature, history, philosophy, and science. It showcases the brilliance of Newton, the unveiling of DNA, as well as literary stalwarts from Kit Marlowe to Salman Rushdie.

As your personal chauffeur and guide, I will provide informative commentary throughout our exploration. Numerous stops will be made for you to capture some great photographs.

The benefit of having a guide like me who also drives a London taxi is that it enhances the efficiency of the tour, contributing to an enjoyable and unforgettable day.
