I have lived in London since 1986, and as a certified City of London Guide, I am able to conduct tours in German and/or English. I've devoted many years as a translator and author of travel guides to learning about the history, landscape and culture of the British Isles. But I'm not given to reciting dry facts. The City yields up so many legends and anecdotes, hidden places and unexpected insights, that there is never a shortage of entertainment.
