Another great tour with Steve. We did this yesterday and while I know the area well there was plenty of interesting stuff highlighted that I was unaware of.
Brian: From Righteous to wretched
Having enjoyed the wonderful Hammersmith to Chiswick tour. I was delighted to find Steve’s tour exploring the opposite direction along the majestic River Thames. Steve is a gifted storyteller and I have learned so much about London, and the Thames’s industrial heritage. Thank you Steve and Voicemap. Now time for a beer!

Have you ever wanted to explore London and get to know the city in a more meaningful way? A London Miscellany offers self guided audio tours that are sure to provide you with an immersive and interactive experience.
I’ve been guiding in London since 2010, and in that time I’ve led thousands of people through the backstreets, river paths, and half‑forgotten corners that rarely make it into the guidebooks.
My work is rooted in years of on‑the‑ground experience, a lot of digging through old maps and archives, and a genuine fascination with how London’s past still shapes the city we walk through today.
​
What began as a hobby has grown into a long‑standing practice of researching local history, from lost streets and vanished industries to the characters who left their mark on the place. I keep my tours updated with new findings, fresh angles, and the odd surprising detail that brings a street or story to life.
​
I specialise in the parts of London people often overlook, helping visitors and locals alike see the echoes and footprints hidden in plain sight. My aim is simple: to share the stories I’ve gathered over the years with accuracy, enthusiasm, and a real affection for this endlessly surprising city.
Whether you’re joining me for the first time or returning for another walk, you can expect a well‑researched, engaging, and reliable tour shaped by more than a decade of experience.
A London Miscellany specializes in crafting unique, immersive and informative audio tours of London. Our tours are designed to tell the stories of the city and the people who have lived there in an engaging and unique way.
When I was contacted by VoiceMap to create audio tours they could host on their site I jumped at the chance. I'm so pleased to have partnered with them and take pride in what we have accomplished together. From the very start, I have had excellent help in crafting the audio with the help of a brilliant editor and sound engineer. We are passionate about audio tours and we believe that our tours offer the best opportunity to explore and experience a different side to London.
