Small Group Walking Tour, max 12 guests. Big Ben Buckingham Palace, Westminster Abbey, Houses of Parliament and much more

London Small Groups Westminster highlights includes Trafalgar Square, Buckingham Palace, Westminster Abbey Abbey and Big Ben to name but a few.  I take only a maximum 12 walkers.  Not like those big crowds you see round one guide. This makes the tour more personal and plenty of opportunity for you to ask questions and going at the group's pace. 
Visit the essential sights, walk the red mall, selfies outside Buckingham Palace, and wander through King Henry VIIIs hunting ground. 
Enter London's smallest square where gun duals and bear baiting were common. Need more selfies? I will show you the best and original red telephone boxes. Come with me to guide you back in time for a sense of what London has experienced over the centuries.   

Please bear in mind that the tour may over run on Monday Wednesday and Fridays when there is Changing of the Guard

I am local having been born and lived in London all my life.   I have had many jobs but guiding through London is the most rewarding and exciting.
Join me on this 2-hour walk and I will give you the inside tips on where to eat, drink and shop. (occasionally if the group agree we add extra stops for even more interest)
