I currently have gmail, google photos and all my contacts and whatever else synced to Google as you do.

Work is iPhone or nothing (application reasons) and I don't know if I cba carrying two phones again.

I've never owned an Apple product, have avoided them completely as much as I can.

How easy is it to move everything over? Can I access Google drive, etc from an iPhone? Or should I just backup everything locally and start from scratch with the Apple equivalent. What about contacts?

I know I can Google all of these questions individually and find the answers but maybe someone has moved completely from one to the other and has some experiences of the pitfalls, etc.

You can use Google contacts rather than Apple. I don't remember it being very difficult to do.
