My name is Chris a born and bred cockney from the East End of London. I have been guiding walking tours around the great City of London since 2005 when I qualified as an official City of London guide. I have been passionate about the history of London since I was a small boy and that passion has never died. My interest in the City has enabled me to explore many of the traditions, secrets and eccentricities of the City that most people do not know about and which I can now share with my clients on my walks. I love London, come for a walk with me and let me share my knowledge of the great and beautiful city with you.
