Michael was fantastic! He was prompt, knowledgeable, warm and friendly. He was easily able to adjust our tour based on what we wanted to see. He even planned a stop for hot chocolate and cookies from a local food cart. We enjoyed his insights and had a wonderful time learning about London with Michael as our guide.
AWESOME TOUR AND WELL WORTH THE MONEY.

We only had a few hours in London before we headed to Northern England for a wedding. We made the right choice by choosing a private Black Taxi Tour. It was totally worth the money. We saw so many things in that amount of time and we were able to get up close drop off access to all the main attractions. Our driver Paul was amazing.

I would highly recommend this tour. We were able to pack tons of sites in within just over two hours. Our Driver, Paul, was an encyclopedia of knowledge. Way better than touring the city on our own.

Stuart is amazing, very knowledgeable. My husband loves anything related to WWII, Stuart was able to show us somethings related to that. We only had two hours due to our flight and felt we got our monies worth. Highly recommend going with Stuart.

Stuart is amazing, very knowledgeable. My husband is very interested in anything to do with WWII and Stuart was able to show us some great things from that time. We only had a short time between flights and Stuart made us feel we got our moneys worth.
Perfect way to see London at a glance!

Great way to see the sites when with limited time frame. We only had a few hours in London, so this was the perfect way to see it all. Paul was a fantastic driver, knew answers to all our questions, and had a great sense of humor! Loved it!!
Excellent tour

The taxi driver Stuart was very friendly and happy to share interesting stories with us. We were able to stop at the landmarks and walk around to take photos, that Stuart expertly took. He even came up with a lovely afternoon plan for us to do on our own, including yummy fish and chips. Definitely recommend this tour over the big bus tour. Thanks you Stuart.
Great way to see the city!
