Hi there! I'm Astrid, and I'm a proud local host here in London. This city has always been a source of inspiration for me, with its rich history and endless stories waiting to be discovered. There's always something new to explore, from famous people and iconic places to hidden gems. One of my favorite things is simply going for a walk and taking in this city's beauty. I love attending live events, visiting museums and galleries, and soaking up all of London's culture. I have extensive knowledge of some of the city's most popular neighborhoods, including Kensington and Chelsea, Mayfair, West End, Bloomsbury, Soho, Piccadilly, Covent Garden, and Westminster. I'm particularly passionate about the city's art and literary scene, and I love sharing my knowledge of the famous artists, writers, and thinkers who have called London home. Whether you're a first-time visitor or a seasoned traveler, I'm confident that I can show you a side of this incredible city that you've never seen before. So come along, and let's explore together!
astrid était vraiment à l'écoute de mes intérêts ainsi que de mes demandes. J'avais déjà mentionné ce que j'avais vu de Londres et que je ne souhaitais pas refaire. De plus comme la température était fraîche elle a su saisir certains moments pour rentrer se réchauffer à l'intérieur. Astrid really listened to my interests as well as my requests. I had already mentioned what I had seen of London and which I did not wish to do again. Moreover, as the temperature was cool, she was able to seize certain moments to go inside and warm up.

It was a fantastic experience. Our guide, Astrid, was very knowledgeable! Showed us details that we would never see on our own. We even went inside the courthouse! Best 4 hours we spent wondering around and sightseeing by foot! We definitely recommend the tour and our guide!

Astrid was amazing. I got to see so much of London that I wouldn’t have seen if I was on a bus tour. I learned so much about London and its history. Highly recommend!!

Astrid told us a bit of London history and about the architecture along the way. And a few surprises! We enjoyed our day with Astrid!
