Going the extra mile to make you smile

“I’m so glad I found My London Tour Guide” is the reaction I often get from clients who have enjoyed my tours.

Hi, my name is Jonathan, and I want to be your tour guide.

You will have fun, see loads, and have a cracking time – whether this is your first time in London or you live here, you’ll have a lot to smile about at the end of the day – because I go the extra (s)mile to make sure you enjoy your tour. 

Look where we’ve been recently:
So few people know about this little central London cut through that I can't even tag the street on Instagram. The clue is that it links the beach to the river, but do you know where it is? Afternoon tea at the Ritz should be the highlight of any trip to London, and today, for the 1st time in a couple of years, it's back in the Palm Court, back in its spiritual home. #bestafternoonteainlondon Blue Monday, pah!!. The absolute best tonic for depressing January, a night out at London's best Blues bar. Michael Bond, born OTD, in 192. The creator of the most famous Bear in the world. Happy birthday, Mr Bond. Photo taken at Alice's on the Portobello road, Mr Gruber shop in the Paddington films The "Beauty Chorus" ☎️ used during WW2 in the top secret bunkers known today as the Cabinet War Rooms. The white phones were connected to each of the armed services, the green to the intelligence services and the black to the outside world. But, any guesses where the red phone was connected to?? Memories of war. Public shelter signage near The Houses of Parliament informing where people could hide during the Blitz. Join me on one of my bespoke "War & Words" tours of central London. The Double-Edged sword of the Tower of London. Huge lines, but waiting to see one of the finest collections of Royal crowns and regalia you'll see anywhere in the world. Book early for 2023 Ask any London cabbie to drop you off at "Hot & Cold Corner", they'll drop you here. The statues of Ernest Shackleton and Dr David Livingstone on each side of the building are the clue !! Tempting, right ??. 45 bedrooms, over 5,500 sq m with 45 bedrooms, an indoor swimming pool and underground parking. The windows are even bombproof. The only snag.....you'll need approx £200M, making this the most expensive property on the market in London. Or, you can just go past it on a tour of knightsbridge !!
