Having headed a religious heritage non-for-profit organization for many years, I’ll be able to open you many doors that normally would be not open to the public!

Being one of the only guide in the city with full access to the Cathedral of the Holy Trinity, the first Anglican cathedral built outside the British Isles, you’ll be in for not only a treat… but a royal treat!
