Patrick was our driver and if someone knew about the extensive history of London this guy was it. He took us to his favourite haunts, as in, where the best scotch to be found is, where the King gets his shoes made, as well as the historical pages showing where 24,000 bottles of wine can be found (albeit still in the Titanic) He even set us up to see the King of England drive by! And to boot, he was just a lovely cockney bloke who’s proud of his country and its capital. Absolutely a 5 star rating!
See London like you have never seen it before!

We had an amazing day in London with Patrick! I have been to London before but have never been able to do so much and learn so much in a few short hours. He made getting around the complicated streets of London seem like a breeze and we felt like “locals” by the end :). Patrick answered any question we had and was a true professional (with a heart of gold). I highly recommend this tour and thank you Patrick for the incredible day.
A Great Tour in London

We had a great tour today with Dave! He showed up right on time. He completely personalized the tour so that we saw sights we had not seen before! He was full of information and stories! We learned alot and were very entertained. We even were lucky enough to see a royal motorcade, and actually got a wave from the king! I would highly recommend this tour! We were certainly very happy and entertained! It was definitely time well spent!!
Entertaining and Educational!

Dave was amazing. Very knowledgeable and kind. Funny too. Really liked that he took us off beaten path to some charming spots near St James Palace. Saw the changing of the guards there as well. Highly recommend him for a guide!

Two words: BOOK CHRIS. But only If u r looking for someone prompt, professional, friendly, knowledgeable, patient, flexible and who is not only a safe and good driver, he’s well-dressed too! Ha ha. Our entire family of six adults (ages 33 - 67) agreed that it was a really fun and convenient way to get a good overview of London. In addition to the hits – Buckingham Palace, Trafalgar Square, etc., etc., Chris asked us if there were any sites in particular we wanted to see (we wanted to cross Abby Road. We did. And who do u think captured lur icinic snap? Chris, of course). At our request, he picked us up at our hotel and at the end, dropped us off at the London Eye. (ps. If for some reason u r still reading this, when was the last time u heard a family of six adults agreeing on anything?!?! 😉)
