Louise Chapman
A French speaking tourist guide in London, I also undertake tours of Hampton Court Palace and Windsor Castle. Westminster Abbey, St Paul’s Cathedral, the Tower of London, the British Museum, Kensington Palace, Banqueting House and Greenwich are all places that I know very well and love to guide. Walking tours in the City of London, the City of Westminster, Canary Wharf and also along the South Bank from Tower Bridge to the London Eye are a strong feature of my guiding life. I work hard to give my client the best day out possible. 'Thank you so much for your wonderful day of touring! We all agreed it was was a full and interesting day, so enriched by your knowledge. Louise, you have the talent of being able to share facts in an interesting and logical way. Your pleasant and considerate manner was much appreciated.' This was the kind testimonial from an Australian client recently. Your tour is important to me; we can just walk and use public transport or take the occasional black cab. Some might prefer a chauffeur-driven car. I enjoy working for corporate groups (French or English) as part of their incentive travel programmes or ‘voyages motivation.’ I often work with schoolgroups so often guide at Hampton Court Palace - imparting the history of the Tudors and King William and Queen Mary. I sometimes work for French Canadian or Belgian clients who wish to see the beauty and majesty of London in a short time. French schoolgroups are another regular feature of my work and as a mother of 2 grown up children, I am happy to undertake work with families too. As a French speaking guide, I know the places that appeal to French, Belgian and French Canadian clients. I also love guiding English speaking clients. The language is immaterial - the important thing is to maximise the day = carpe diem as the Romans would say in Latin! BA Modern Languages (Bristol). MA Applied Linguistics (Sussex).
