Katherine Alcock

I am a born and bred Londoner with a passion for the past.

Having studied history at Cambridge University all the way back in 2008, I turned my back on the world of academia to go and follow my theatrical dreams, and trained to be an actor at the Oxford School of Drama. Soon, however, my love of the past was luring me back, and I fell into tour guiding quite by accident whilst an out-of-work actor in the city.

I completed the Westminster course in 2018, graduating with an Outstanding Distinction, and am also a London Blue Badge guide, meaning I am qualified to guide inside sites of national significance such as Westminster Abbey, St Paul’s Cathedral and the Tower of London.

I offer tours on every single part of London, and much of the South of England, with my specialities including Windsor, Bath, Stonehenge and Oxford. Here in Westminster I offer tours on Royalty, Harry Potter, Reformers and the Second World War, as well as tours of the National Gallery, National Portrait Gallery, and Tate Britain.

I have featured on radio and television, and am a regular contributor to the Travel Channel’s ‘Mysteries at the Museum’ and ‘Beyond the Unknown’.
