Why guests book with us

We are guides who love teaching, good stories, art and a well‑timed joke. That is the tour you get.

Storytellers, not script readers

We do not recite dates. We tell you who stood here, what they wanted and how it went wrong. You leave with stories you will retell at dinner.

Teachers at heart

Our guides love explaining things, and it shows. Ask the question you thought was too basic. That is usually where the good part starts.

Serious history, light company

Six hundred years of kings, wars and scandals go down better with a sense of humour. Expect to laugh more than you planned to.

Curious about art and culture

Museums, galleries, palace paintwork, the design of a single roof tile. We notice the details, and soon you will too.
