Guide Bio
Hello and welcome to my home town of Birmingham in the Heart of England region. After a long career in fashion manufacturing I qualified as a Blue Badge Tour Guide in 2001. Since then I have specialised in providing personalised, private tours of Birmingham and surrounding areas. I love my work and am always happy to be given the opportunity to share my enthusiasm with visitors from my home country or abroad.
Having been ‘born and bred’ here, I have seen many changes to Birmingham over the last 20 years; from a city with a reputation for heavy industry Birmingham has become a highly regarded centre of excellence in all areas of business and culture. A wide variety of restaurants, great shopping, museums and galleries plus numerous local attractions make Birmingham a popular tourist destination with leisure and business visitors alike.
Just a forty minute drive from Birmingham city centre are the famous ‘Shakespeare Country’ towns of Stratford upon Avon and Warwick with the Cotswold hills beyond.
As a fully licensed and insured Driver-Guide I have a very comfortable executive style vehicle and can provide day trips and extended tours across the region.
Whatever your reason for coming to Birmingham and however much or little time you have to spare, I would be delighted to tailor a walking and/or driving tour that will help you discover the hidden Heart of England.
