What To Expect

Buckingham Palace

Most of our tours include a stop at Buckingham Palace, the official London residence of His Majesty The King and perhaps the most famous royal palace in the world. We usually allow around 15 minutes here so you can take photos and soak in the grandeur of this landmark. Outside the palace stands the Victoria Memorial, an impressive monument to Queen Victoria, surrounded by ornate gates and gardens that make this one of the most photographed spots in London. Depending on the timing of your tour, you may also see the Changing of the Guard — a colourful display of military precision and tradition that draws visitors from across the globe. Please note: the exact itinerary may vary depending on your pickup location, traffic conditions on the day, and your personal preferences. Your driver will confirm the details with you at the start of your tour.

St. James's Palace

Many of our tours include a visit to St. James’s Palace, a working royal residence and one of the oldest in London, dating back to the 1500s. We usually stop for around 15 minutes so you can take photos and enjoy the atmosphere of this historic setting. Just nearby, in St. James’s Park, you may also see the pink pelicans — first gifted to King Charles II in the 17th century by the Russian ambassador, and still a much-loved feature of the park today. Please note: the exact itinerary may vary depending on your pickup location, traffic conditions on the day, and your personal preferences. Your driver will confirm the details with you at the start of your tour.

We booked Elite Black Taxi Tours for a day out in London as a couple, and it was honestly one of the best experiences we've had in the city. From the moment we were picked up, we felt completely looked after. Our driver was warm, funny, and incredibly knowledgeable – the kind of guide who instantly makes you feel like you’re exploring the city with a friend rather than on a tour. We visited all the famous sights – Buckingham Palace, Big Ben, Westminster Abbey, St Paul’s Cathedral, Tower of London, and Tower Bridge – but it was the little hidden backstreets, quirky stories, bits of history that made our tour so special. The taxi itself was clean and so comfortable, and the glass roof gave us amazing views of the buildings and skyline as we drove through the city. We never felt rushed – we could stop for photos whenever we wanted, and our driver even offered to take some pictures of us together (rare when you travel as a couple!). To finish the day, our driver recommended a traditional spot for proper fish and chips, which was absolutely perfect. If you’re visiting London this tour is worth every penny. Personal, relaxed, and full of memories we’ll treasure.
