Better than Walking or a Crowded Bus Tour

5.00Our family of three thoroughly enjoyed this tour. Seb picked us up at our hotel at 4pm and took us to see many Christmas lights in a variety of areas. He kindly took a few pictures of us too when he could. Because of traffic and the crowds, we may have missed a few spots like Covent Garden, but Seb made up for it by taking us to so many other places. He had a great sense of humor too. We arranged in advance to be dropped off at a restaurant we made a dinner reservation at which was very helpful too. Definitely recommend.
The perfect way to see the city at Christmas!

5.00My husband and I had a wonderful time on our tour with Michael. He took us all over the city, and gave us really interesting background details on different areas of town. It felt like we had the inside scoop on the best parts to see in London from a local. And the Christmas parts he took us to were exceptional! Would highly recommend to anyone visiting London at Christmas!

5.00What a great way to see London’s Christmas decorations in a short amount of time & get out of the cold! Our driver was great! He was gracious enough to mix in some history while he showed us about. I would not hesitate to book a tour with him, Christmas or historic. Thanks again! We had a grand time & the pictures you took of us were indeed great. Merry Christmas!

5.00We had a wonderful tour with Jon! He was a knowledgeable and personable guide. Jon picked us up at our hotel and dropped us off at our next destination (after the tour). This tour was the perfect way to start our London trip. Jon showed us the prettiest Christmas lights and decor of London as well as highlights of the city. It was raining and crowded (because of the holiday season), but we were still able to see everything in a few hours. If you are short on time, I would highly recommend this tour!

5.00We had a fabulous tour with our very knowledgeable and entertaining driver, Terry. It was a wonderful way to get an overview and bearings of London early in our stay, so that we could revisit things we liked in more detail over the rest of our holiday. Terry’s tips, historical insights and recommendations of things to revisit were outstanding and put to good use later. The lights and Christmas festivities were magnificent and Terry’s ability to navigate the crowds to give us best vantages was really impressive. Thank you Terry and Black Cabs!!
