Hi there! Nice to meet you

Welcome to my profile! I am an cultural history storyteller, passionate about music, art, history and architecture.

I have lived in London for nearly twenty years and when I first moved here it was to experience the wonderful depth of creative history and energy that our fair city has to offer.

I love to tell stories about the fascinating people and wonderful places that give London its unique fabric. As a storyteller through words, images and music, it is a great pleasure for me to meet new people and to share with them some of London's most exciting stories.

As Samuel Johnson once wrote: a man who is tired of London is tired of life.

On my tour you’ll see the best highlights and hidden gems. I’ll even show you significant points related to the Royal Family. I can customize the tour just for you.

We really enjoyed our tour learning about the British Invasion on the 60s. We explored parts of London that we would have never discovered otherwise. Appreciate Tom's flexibility with us too. Great information - fun tour

Firstly, I must truly appreciate that Tom was ever so accommodating given we had messed up our train journey and were running quite late! He shared some charming insights into the history of the Royals, all with a dash of humor to keep us entertained all the while. The highlight of our tour was undoubtedly when we saw the King and Queen driving into and then again out of Buckingham Palace! Those moments specially were exhilarating. Thank you Tom was the warmth and the wonderful time.We saw the King and Queen !!!

We booked Tom for both a Royals Tour and the Swinging Sixties Tour. A full day. Tom labels himself as the Storyteller. He is that and alot more. Tom makes it all come alive from Ian Fleming favorite bar, to the Beatles last concert sight, and to the first club Jimi Hendrix played in. Tom will take you there and then fill in the significance and make it come alive. Was such a fun day. Tom is attentive, warm and easy to connect with. At the end of the tour if you don’t feel like you have made a friend. Shame on you. Tom is great about taking pictures all day long of you and then downloading to you. Great guy. Great tours.

From Kensington Palace to Big Ben – the tour was great fun, and we learned so much about London and the monarchy. Thank you very much, Tom! Amazing Tour

We were a group of 9- 5 adults and 4 kids (ages 11, 11, 9 and 9). Tom took us around Westminster, Buckingham, and St. James Park for 3 hours with a stop at a cafe by our request. He was friendly, interesting, and very knowledgeable. At the end of the week, everyone agreed Tom's tour was our number 1 thing we did- even the 4 kids. Very worth the price!Great Experience!

Such a great tour. Tom led my mom, sister, and me on a super fun tour of the 60s music scene in London. My mom loved the Beatles trivia, and my sister and I enjoyed the David Bowie and Jimi Hendrix sites. Wandering through SOHO was super fun too. Highly recommend for a unique London experience! So fun!

Tom was an excellent guide and story teller, Blending history with context, and adjusting the tour to be engaging for two adults with two teenagers. I learned a ton, ate some tasty bites and feel I could navigate Shoreditch nicely the next time I’m in London. Great for those wanting a “bit more”!
