Officially Unofficial Tour of the City of London
Think you know London? Think again. Come see round the City of London - the City within a city - on the only officially unofficial tour!
This tour is around the financial district — that mysterious “square mile”- where money talks, history whispers, and even the King (allegedly) has to ask permission to pop in.
It's perfect for anyone who wants to see behind the tourist veneer of London - you’ll find out about people history has tried to forget - like slave traders, rebel leaders - and about some ordinary Londoners who did some extraordinary things.
Your guide will be comedian, TedX Speaker and ex-economist Suse Steed (“will make you learn as well as laugh” Evening Standard).
It’s smart, it’s funny, and it’s the *only* officially unofficial tour.
London Street Photo workshop
I'll show you the unique angles on photographing people discreetly against the backdrop of the iconic London sites. Crammed into 3 hours are bags of practical and theoretical Street Photography knowledge and invaluable skills to practice on the day and take away and apply in your future photographic endeavours. You'll receive professional guidance on your Street Photography composition, techniques and camera settings. You'll learn how to interpret and implement creative use of light as well as how to approach a street scene and construct a composition with immediate visual impact. You'll also learn how to shoot confidently while staying on the right side of the law and how to adopt a positive attitude for street shooting. You'll be able to use your camera's manual controls to achieve correct exposure and learn how the professional street togs set up their cameras. I'll show you when it's best to shoot in colour and why you'd choose to shoot and convert your images to black and white.
Hampton Court Palace Private Tour - discovering the excesses of Henry VIII
Henry VIII was a man of excess and he certainly did not do things by halves! On this tour with me (Sandy) you will wander through the enormous kitchens where feasts of nine courses were prepared for him and his noble guests to enjoy; you will be amazed at the exquisiteness of his tapestries which cost double the price of his favourite war ship to make. You might also be horrified by the story of Henry's expanding collection of wives and how, as desperation set in to find a son and heir, Henry took drastic measures! This tour will fill you in on Henry's life of excess: the size of his kitchens, the glamour of his furnishings, why he became so large, who his wives were and what happened to them all. But most of all, this is a chance to enjoy imagining the unimaginable: wealth and excess that knew no bounds resulting in one of the most magnificent courts in Europe!
Discover the Secrets of Whitehall
Come hear about Winston Churchill and the Second World War, Henry VIII and the execution of a King.

People say that history is boring.
Did you know that the spark that started the English civil war was a row between a husband and wife.
Or that Henry VIII secretly married Anne Boleyn in the Whitehall Palace before he was officially divorced.
The great buildings of London are here too, Big Ben, the Houses of Parliament, the Westminster Abbey but we will also recall the human events that make us who we are.
The story of a small island kingdom that became a global empire will be seen in these stones and buildings.
