Alan Drake
I have worked in the travel industry since 1995 and have been a registered Blue Badge tourist guide since 2010. For me, London is the greatest city on the face of the planet and there is nothing that I enjoy more than showing it off to our visitors.
I offer all kinds of tours in and around London from the general (Royal London walk, iconic highlights, St Paul's and Westminster Abbey church tour etc) to the more specific (Jack the Ripper, East End Immigration, Beatles London, Tate Modern). I am also very happy to help you construct your tour  exactly as you want it so that your visit to London ticks every box and exceeds every expectation.
As a father of two young energetic and boisterous boys, I am well aware of the occasional challenges of travelling with children! Whenever I guide families, I always make sure that my tours are as fun and interactive as possible. As the Old Chinese proverb goes:"Tell me and I forget. Show me and I remember. Involve me and I understand."
Aside from guiding, my other great passion is acting. I trained at LAMDA, one of London's great drama schools, and have appeared in many theatre shows, television programs and movies over the years.
I guide in English and French.
