The 6 Hour Private Iconic Black Cab Sightseeing Tour
Overview
Available languages
6 hours
Mobile ticket
The best way to see London is from an iconic London Black Cab. Add to this a qualified driver/guide and you have the full package. London Cabbies face one of the strictest and toughest examination processes known colloquially as The Knowledge. It can take up to 3 years for them to learn every road, street, lane, alley, bar, restaurant, statue, apartment block, Police Station, hotel, church, government building, train station, literally anywhere a paying customer would wish to be taken. They also need to know the quickest route.
On top of all that your driver is also a qualified guide having completed a written and oral exam through the Worshipful Company of Hackney Carriage Drivers. You will travel from west to east and get to feast on all the history, heritage and culture this vibrant city has to offer.

Best tour EVER!!

5.00We knew even before our trip that we wanted Paul Williams to do our tour of London! After reading the reviews and with only one day available to tour around it had to be Paul! And was that the best decision we made on the trip!! Paul communicated with us in advance prior to the trip to confirm he was available, which was fantastic. We spent 6 hours touring around London, we left the itinerary in his hands and he brought us to see all of London's greatest hits along with places we'd never heard of and would never have found ourselves! He is so knowledgeable and shares wonderful stories and anecdotes. So many that we continue to share and regale to our friends! He is kind and thoughtful and wanted us to have the best time, he took so many family photos, how amazing to have everyone in the photo at one time! We loved that he knew the times that events were going to happen and structured the tour so we got there at the perfect time and placed us for a perfect view. His inside knowledge was so helpful and allowed us to have an efficient tour, with no time wasted! He also knows everyone! All the places we went business owner to other guides shook his hand with a warm hello, which says a lot about his reputation. Whether it's your first time or 10th time in London, he is the best and we can't wait to return for more adventures! Thank you Paul for your generous spirit, knowledge of this wonderful city and kindness, we will never forget it!

5.00Our taxi sightseeing tour was amazing! This tour is so convenient with hotel pickup. Our driver, Keith, artived promptly on time, was extremely knowledgeable about the city, and took us to many places that we would have never found on our own in London. The taxi was impeccably clean and comfortable. We would highly recommend this tour!

5.00What a fantastic day we had with Paul touring and exploring London! This is the perfect way to see London in a day. The day was spectacular due to Paul’s attention to detail and effortless ability to guide us about the city from one amazing location to the next! He tailored the day to ensure we visited all of the historic sites we hoped to see. My family and I highly recommend the tour and Paul as your guide!
