We truly enjoyed our experience with Ian Gray as our driver. He was very attentive, very knowledgeable and took us to sights that you cannot view from a bus. Pickup and Dropoff went fine. We would highly recommend him for a personal tour.

Our tour was great with Mick! He was extremely knowledgeable on all of the history and locations. We did the tour with our 16 month old and Mick was very accommodating. Thank you for such a great day!

Mike was great. He communicated from the start. He confirmed the time and place to meet us. He showed and told us the history of London’s monuments. The Big Ben, the Buckingham Palace, parliament, the Big Ben, and even took us to see Shari Kahn statue located in London's Leicester Square per our request plus stopped to enjoy ice cream. He was funny and caring. My family recommends this trip. Great time!!!

This was a great tour. Jim was our tour guide and was so flexible and informative. He worked with our schedule, so accommodating. We could tell that he has been doing this for a while as he knew so much about so many things in and throughout London. (And, did it all with a sense of humor) The nice thing is that he customized our tour to what we wanted to see and gave so many referrals on other places to go. Also nice that it was a combination of walking and driving. This was a little pricier tour, but feel like it was definitely worth the charge. Def. five stars

Such a great experience and absolute delight to do this tour with our informative tour guide Michael (Mick). Loved every minute and not only was Michael a wealth of information in all areas but he was also very attentive to our needs. I was dying to see the Old Bailey and he was all in!!! So amazing 👏🏽. Everyone should do this tour (with Michael, if possible) when visiting London.

Mick was amazing, very knowledge and pleasant. He answered all our questions and even accepted our request to visit Buckingham Palace and Big Ben again to get better pictures. We really enjoyed our tour, probably the best we have had in Europe.
