My name is Anne Mark and I founded and run Marksman Tours. After extensive training and examination, I was awarded the coveted BLUE BADGE by the London Tourist Board, covering the London area and places within one day's drive. The Blue Badge ensures the best quality and enables me to guide you inside many of the historic sights in and around London - where only fully qualified Blue Badge Guides are allowed to address groups or individuals.
I have had a broad range of experience in a variety of lives, having been an Investment Banker for many years and later a Museum Finance Director. Now a freelance guide, it is such a pleasure to meet visitors from all over the world and show them the best of Great Britain. I have lived in various European and South American countries and have traveled extensively. Thus I really enjoy the differences in countries & cultures and understand intuitively what will appeal to visitors from different countries about this wonderful country and its people!
I am a member of the following professional organizations for Guides: The Institute of Tourist Guiding, The Guild of Registered Tourist Guides (National), The Association of Professional Tourist Guides (London) and The Driver Guides Association. I also feature on the Net a Guide and Tourist-Guides. Net web sites for qualified guides.
