Welcome - Brasilian Guide London

BRASILIAN GUIDE LONDON

Hello, I am Vania, a fully qualified London Blue Badge Tourist Guide, City of London, City of Westminster, St Paul's Cathedral, Windsor and Eton Accredited Guide and Hampton Court Palace Guide.

I moved from Brazil to London in 1989 and having fallen in love with the city, I decided to change profession to become a guide. I greatly enjoy taking around tourists from all over the globe in both English and Portuguese.

From well known attractions such as Westminster Abbey and Buckingham Palace to the lesser known hidden alleyways, I will make sure you make the most of your visit and experience London as a local resident.

I offer unique guided tours in English and Portuguese throughout the heart of this great city. For more information please take a look at ‘my tours’ section or email me to discuss a bespoke package to vaniabr@brasilianguidelondon.com

COVID-19 Announcement update

In response to the government’s announcement of a second national lockdown, I am regretfully unable to offer face-to-face tours until early December.

However, while our travel is restricted, I am offering live Virtual Tours for which I have been accredited by the Association of Professional Tourist Guides: www.guidelondon.org.uk/tours/London-virtual-tour

These tours give you the opportunity to discover London and its surroundings in the comfort of your home. Via the Zoom meeting platform, you can sit back and relax while watching a virtual tour of your choice which will include unique stories about the destination and feature a variety of digital resources such as photos, videos, and Google Maps/Street View to create a dynamic and engaging virtual experience.

BOOK A TOUR

"Having Vânia as a guide in London has extremely enriched our trip. We had plenty of pleasant surprises, Vania provided us lots of historical information, numerous curiosities and showed special places that we would not have known on our own. Her work is really differentiated and her tips are very valuable. I, my husband, our three boys and niece, teenagers we think that our trip would not be the same without Vânia." Jane Leal, Belo Horizonte, 2020

"We took a trip to London and on the recommendation of a guide in Rome, we contracted Vania Gay guiding services to assist us on a 6-day program. It was a very pleasant surprise for me, my wife and two 11-year-old twin daughters, to have contact with an intelligent, super-prepared and especially caring person, who fully guaranteed the success of visits to all points of the program. The girls were delighted and seemed to know Vania for a long time. We feel that we now have a new friend in London. ”José Adilson Miguel, S.Paulo, 2020

"Vania, we would like to say that we were extremely happy with your services. Your professionalism and knowledge about the History of England has charmed us and has enriched our visit to London. A special thank you for your solicitude with everyone and for your special attention to the children. Congratulations on your work !! Well done !! " Ana Bouwman, Recife, 2019
