    Shiv was an amazing guide. We covered more of London than we thought possible and he went above and beyond expectations. He was a great conversationalist and planned a perfect walking tour to see all the sites in the allotted time. Couldn’t have asked for a more perfect experience. Thank you Shiv!!

    Hi there. When I told Londoners I've visited Brixton, they confirmed this really is a vivid area in the South of London ! My personal guide, Richard, is the right one to have you introduced in this diverse community with lots of history. We met at the mural of David Bowie, near to Brxton tube and Richard started to talk about the area and its inhabitants. He took me to electric street where food stores were opening and I admired the diversity of food and people who are working overthere. Richard talked me about the history of Brixton riots in the Eighties, about black history in London and about gentrification now. We took our time to visit local shops and Richard advised me to buy a little book about unknown London in a second hand bookshop. It seemed to me a lot of local people knew him (and he knew them). Although I preferred to have my guided tour in the morning, we could see a glimpse of Brixton container village where Pop Brixton is taking place. At the end of the tour we ended this remarkable morning with a remarkable guide on a terrace of a little pub near the railway station. Richard paid for the drinks and I could continue my trip in London with a big smile. Thanks Richard ! Tom
