Job description

We are a small, locally owned bicycle tour company operating in central London and we are looking for friendly, outgoing, personable individuals to come and work with us as London Tour Guides, leading bicycle tours around the city. A knowledge of London’s history and geography is a plus, but not essential as training will be provided to you. The most important thing (apart from being able to ride a bike) is that you are able to provide the best experience for our customers who visit us from around the world.

On a normal day - after greeting your group - you will be guiding groups of 8-12 people around the city and showing them the sights of London. Although we have planned the easiest and safest route to take, you can appreciate in a big city things change all the time. In these cases it is really important that we have people who can keep calm and take initiative when needed.

Working as a London Tour Guide is ideal if you are looking for something a bit different - you won’t be stuck indoors here! In the past we have had stuntmen, singers, actors and teachers working with us, so hours are flexible for those that have another job/career.

  • Excellent communication skills
  • Personable
  • Enjoys interacting with a wide range of individuals
