Visiting a place is easy; truly getting to know it is a bit harder.  A Blue Badge Guide can give you a real taste of what a place is like and help to bring its past to life, as well as taking you off the beaten track to the places not even the locals know about. I offer:

• day trips and multi-day tours
• coach tours and walking tours
• individualised tour planning
• hospitality services
• 2012 Venues tours

and much more. Follow the links on the left to find out about the services I provide, or email me.

Whether you are here for a couple of days, a few months, or you live here, and whether you are here on business or for pleasure, to make your stay an unforgettable experience, hire a Blue Badge tourist guide.
