Many thanks Ketan for such a wonderful review
At making it such a great tour
Feel
Discovering London with Tony is truly the pinnacle of experiencing and understanding the city. Having visited London several times before, we can confidently say that Tony's tour provided us with unparalleled insight into the city's history and key landmarks. From the moment we began, Tony impressed us with his thorough preparation, even taking on the responsibility of capturing our memories with his own SLR camera so we could fully immerse ourselves in the experience without the distraction of photography. His dedication ensured that every aspect of our tour was meticulously covered, allowing us to focus solely on sharing our interests and must-see locations. Tony's profound knowledge of history coupled with his genuine passion for the city provided a unique and enriching context to everything we encountered. With Tony as our guide, our London exploration was truly unforgettable

We had the perfect weather and managed to get round and see so much, even though it was pretty crowded

This was my first tour out in the Cotswolds! I couldn’t think of anyone better but I could share this tour with,Angela and Keith who had already used my services the previous year on an eight hour tour around London.
What a day it was !
Visiting areas such as Castle Coombe famous for being used as the location for the 1960s film doctor Dolittle starring Rex Harrison , Bilbury with the famous Arlington Road that Henry Ford tried to purchase and take back to America, then onto stow in the wold for a fantastic lunch at the porch inn, it is the oldest inn the country and seeing the famous church door at Stowe which is said to be the inspiration for J RR talking minds of Moria in the Fellowship of the ring.
If That was not enough, we then made our way to the ancestral home of Winston Churchill Blenheim, checking out the wonderful exhibition of British fashion, and a special trip out to the Harry Potter tree used in Harry Potter and the half blood prince
And then finally on to see Winston’s grave at Blaydon
Thank you, Angela and Keith for being such wonderful guests on my tour .

When guests come on my tours sometimes they are a little bit taken back when I offer to take photographs of them, it’s always been my goal to create a memory that they can keep and look back on with fond memories.
In no way, am I a professional photographer but a keen amateur and it’s so gratifying when you get an acknowledgement from your guests that they’ve received something that they will cherish!
Sherri and her daughter Kasey were my guests on wet Tuesday afternoon I think we still pulled off getting some great photographs
Many thanks to Black Cabs Heritage tours
