Overview
There’s so much history crammed into this one neighbourhood, you’ll be struggling to keep up. From memorials to greats in Westminster Abbey to the heartbeat of British government in Whitehall to the scene of all action, No. 10 Downing Street…this tour is a fast-paced thriller.
Most-photographed, most-recognised and most-loved, every landmark helps you tick off your entire London-essentials list. Buzz of Trafalgar Square, elegance of St. James's Park, to the glamour of Buckingham Palace, it’s a feast all the way. Broad boulevards, and the vistas long -- the perfect backdrop for the pomp and pageantry of royal occasions. Piccadilly Circus, London Eye, River Thames, Hyde Park, Albert Hall, even Harrods…you’ll forget to look at your phone. We even do 3 UNESCO World Heritage and 2 Tudor Palaces.
Themes vary from British Monarchy’s Royal Palaces to Pomp and Ceremony to UK Parliament and Brexit to Winston Churchill’s Darkest Hour in World War Two. Which will it be for you today?

Highly recommend - really lovely way to spend the day
Published on May, 2025
Jeremy was an absolute delight. He took such excellent care of us (I was traveling with my mother) and really catered the tour to our needs. He asked questions about what we wanted to be sure not to miss and then brought us to all of those places, plus so many additional lesser known, but fascinating, spots around London. We could not be happier with this tour - it exceeded our expectations. I would not hesitate to recommend this tour, and particularly our driver Jeremy, to anyone coming to London for your first or tenth time!
Private cab ride through London

Jamie was a fun ride! He was on time, very friendly and we loved his new white cab! His knowledge of the history as well as fun facts of our surroundings made it for unforgettable experience. Highly recommend!
Thanks Jamie!
Private cab tour of London
Published on May, 2025
We had a great experience on a private black cab tour of London. Over 4 hours, JP showed us all of London’s significant landmarks as well as a few unique items of interest. He was an outstanding guide, sharing history and stories along the way. Very personable and no doubt, the highlight of our trip!
What a fantastic tour thanks to our driver/guide Danny Mc!
Published on May, 2025
I would highly recommend this tour to any first-time visitor to London. Our driver/guide, Danny Mc, was professional, friendly, and so knowledgeable about London. He messaged us the day prior to reconfirm the arrangements which was a pleasant surprise and greatly appreciated. That set the tone for the entire tour. He arrived promptly and kept us on a well-paced tour, without feeling rushed, that covered all the top attractions while focusing on our particular areas of interest. Of special note, Danny was kind to tailor the tour for my 79 year old father who isn't quite as active as he used to be.
We were given the option of ending the tour at any location instead of just returning to the hotel. We chose to conclude near the Tower of London so we could continue sightseeing on our own. Danny even was willing to recommend some great places for lunch in the area.
The iconic black cab was very clean and a comfortable way to explore the city. It had an extra large moon roof to facilitate viewing as well as a good quality microphone/speaker system which made it easier to hear Danny as he told us about the area. Though there were only three of us as passengers, the cab would comfortably carry a group of 5-6 people.
While this tour is slightly more expensive than some others, it's well worth it. We were able to see and learn more in a short time that any large tour bus tour could offer. Thanks very much to Danny Mc for making our time in London so memorable!
Private Cab tour with Dave
Published on May, 2025
Our cab driver Dave was very accommodating. He took us to all the major sights and graciously took pictures of us along the way. He was very knowledgeable about the history of London and all the sights. I would highly recommend this tour and Dave.
