JEREMY Made London Come Alive! This tour was the highlight of our trip.

5.00This experience became the highlight of our trip to London. Jeremy was the perfect host - thoughtful, gracious, and capable. He is an encyclopedia of London history. His vehicle is roomy and comfortable, equipped with a speaker system so we can easily communicate with him in the driver seat. Jeremy made the tour a perfect mix of driving and walking. He made London come alive as he showed us the most popular sites as well as amazing things that are part of “secret London“ that we would have never seen without him. if you are going to take this tour, ask for Jeremy. He was born to do this!

5.00Wow! We had the most perfect day touring with Jon Cox. We laughed, we learned, we saw London to its fullest. Truly the best. Jon has wonderful relationships with many stores and vendors in London which gave us special insight to this magical town. Cannot recommend this tour, with Jon, enough. Many thanks, Claire, Anna P, and Anna D

5.00Very educational. Love the trivia shared. Knowledge shared would not have learned from hop on hop off tour! Patrick is fantastic!
I would highly recommend a private tour if you have a small group as a great way to see the highlights!

5.00Gary was a great tour guide with so much knowledge. He even tailored our tour and took us off the beaten path to show us something that everyone doesn’t see based on us being from Texas. Even stopped at Borough market for some treats!
This is the way to your London!

5.00Our Viator Black Cab tour guide, Stella is polite, courteous and very knowledgeable about the history and significance of the area we visited. This is our third visit and our first time to use Viator to see London. Our experience is very memorable and we were able to see London other regular tourist not able to visit. We highly recommend this tour if you want to enjoy London in less than a day. Thank you.

5.00Our driver, Sean was amazing! His knowledge was extensive which made the sights we saw even more interesting. Sean made sure that we had ample time to take pictures and we felt that our enjoyment was important to him. We had a wonderful time discovering the city that Sean apparently loves.
A great way to see London
