This trip is a must go! - This was by far the best tour we have ever done and that is saying a lot being we travel frequently. Our guide, Barry went above and beyond to ensure we had a memorable experience. He personalized the day and even made us a reservation at a delicious restaurant for lunch. This is definitely the tour you should book if you want to see the most of London with a personal touch.

Thoroughly Thoughtful Taxi Tour - We were picked up at our local address and treated to a personalized tour of London greater attractions taking into account the sites we had already visited. Barry was an excellent historian with a great amount of knowledge about the sites we visited. The tour would have ended back at our local residence, but Barry dropped us off at a local pub that he recommended at our request. Great day!

Life long Londoner gives Informative, entertaining insider tour - Barry is a total pro! He knows London like the back of his hand. He took us to the big sights as well as more off the beaten track places. He provided fascinating facts and stories about each stop. Barry is a pleasant fellow, we liked him immediately. As a life long cab driver, he seemed to know just where he could park so we could pop in places quickly. And he also knows exactly where to take a family photo with the most iconic London landmarks in the background. Barry is a life long Londoner so he can quickly customize the tour based on the interests of the group. For instance, he added two stops he thought our teenage kids would like! Barry knows how to efficiently get around town so we covered way more ground than we ever could have done on our own. It was 90 degrees the day of our tour. Being able to cool off in his air conditioned cab between stops was ideal. I can’t recommend Barry’s tour enough, especially for your first day or two in London.

Lots to see and this delivered - Barry was great. He showed us some really cool places and told us some great stories. We were able to see all of the key points of the city in an abbreviated version. We even got to see the King up close. We would recommend this tour to anyone.

Fantastic tour and experience to see the sights - Danny was an excellent tour guide and taxi driver. He showed up exactly where we requested and dropped us off where we requested. We had just arrived from a cruise so we were all arguably exhausted. However, Danny was able to keep us completely engaged in the tour. This was such a great way to get an overview of the city - he shared many stories, locations that we would have not known about, and interesting tidbits about London. We learned a lot of history as well. It is clear that Danny loves what he does. He was funny and entertaining. For those that may not know, taxis drivers in London undergo a lot of training and experience. Rest assured you will get so much more out of this than just having an Uber drive you around. If you have a short time in London, just like we did, this is a fantastic way to see the sights you want to see, as well as many that you may not have even known about. I recommend this tour without hesitation!
