Edwin Lerner

Named Edwin (an early king of Northern England) but usually called 'Eddie', I conducted extended tours around Britain and Ireland for many years and now work as a freelance guide and tour manager with a little writing and editing on the side.  I specialise in public transport and walking tours of London which means that you do not have to have your own vehicle. I conduct round Britain tours themed on cars, religion, music, theatre, literature and sport and have looked after all types of groups from freemasons to farmers, from baptists to Beatles fans. I will go anywhere and work extra hard for all my clients.

    Abbey Road - Where the Beatles Recorded in London

    Although they broke up over fifty years ago, the Beatles remain Britain’s favourite pop group and have now become part of the tourist business in London. The group came from Liverpool and were originally called the Quarrymen after Quarry Bank High School which John Lennon, the group’s founder, attended. Iconic places that the Beatles sang about, such as Penny Lane and Strawberry Fields, are found in Liverpool 200 miles north of the capital.

    Who Killed the Little Princes in the Tower of London

    Yeoman Warders, often referred to as ‘Beefeaters,’ conduct their own tours of the Tower of London. However, they are not allowed to say that Richard III had ordered the killing of his own nephews, who are often referred to as ‘the Little Princes in the Tower.’ This is because the Ricardian Society, who believe Richard was innocent of the crime and had been unjustly accused of it by William Shakespeare and others, dispute this view and will come down on anyone who supports it. This just goes to show how a small but vocal group can exert influence and proclaim the innocence of one who is an obvious villain.

    A Dickens Of A Christmas in London

    More than anyone else, Charles Dickens invented the British Christmas with A Christmas Carol, his story about Ebenezer Scrooge and the ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Future. It was first published in 1843 and has been adapted for stage and screen many times. No surprise then that there are four museums in the United Kingdom dedicated to Charles Dickens (including one in London), more than any other British writer.
