We enjoyed a spectacular evening with our engaging drivers John and Paul as we toured London’s infamous Christmas lights displays. From the moment we started we were treated to the incredible sights of the Christmas Lights from the first tree-lined square to the London Eye we saw it all! This tour was one of our favorite London highlights and we loved every minute! We were a family group of 12 and our drivers stayed in sync with each other even taking family group photos that showcased the lights. We truly loved the 3-hour tour and encourage anyone who wants to immerse themselves in the Christmas Lights of London to book through Visit London Taxi Tours for an incredible evening! Request John or Paul — they’re the best — patient, conscientious, personable — and willing to personalize your experience!
Great 4 hour Xmas lights and more tour of London with possibly the best driver/tour guide in the business, Paul. This tour is strongly recommended.
Thank you for your great review. Christmas lights tours are always special, and I’m so pleased to hear Paul made it such an enjoyable experience for you. He takes real pride in showing London at its best, especially at that time of year. Thank you for the strong recommendation, it means a great deal to us.
This is hands down the best tour in London! The driver/guides know all of the best spots, are full of knowledge about the areas we visit, and are Instagram photographers extraordinaire!
Well hello there Kristi, you did suprise us slightly with a Christmas tour review on a hot sunny day in London. Nevertheless.....always appreciate feedback, thanks for choosing us to explore London.
I knew this experience was going to be great after I spoke to our driver Gavin on the phone. He took us to all the best places to see the lights and even went back to a good one when he realised they hadn’t put them on yet. Gavin was professional, knowledgeable, accommodating and a great guy who made the experience for the adults and children amazing. We would 100% recommend this experience and would love to go again next year!
Gavin really is a great guide and we are so glad to see you had a great time. Thank you for the recommendation, it really means a lot to s a small business like ours. Happy New Year.
I honestly can't say enough good things about my experience with London Taxi Tours. From the outset the customer service was warm, professional and quick. Our drive/tour guide Yiannis was the perfect host a) an excellent and calm driver b) very knowledgeable and interesting tour guide c) knew just went to point things out and when to just let us carry on chatting amongst ourselves d) just a really nice guy! The tour was perfect for members of our party that had some additional needs; we saw the very best of central London at Christmas (plus more that we couldn't have found by ourselves) but all from the warm bubble of our own taxi. Our tour made us feel all Christmassy and magical and has made priceless memories for our family. My parents used to love going into central London but wouldn't be able to manage it by themselves these days so this was a real gift and we can't stop talking about it. THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Thank you for the detailed feedback - we are so much more than the Christmas lights, and look to add value wherever we can and yo have captured that for us.

The Christmas lights and Markets tour was fantastic. We would have never seen all that we did with Alan had we not booked this tour. Well worth the cost and highly recommend.
Thank you very much for the recommendation. Come back and see us in the summer. 😉
The Christmas lights and markets tour was well worth the money. We would have never seen as much as we did nor knew the background behind without Alan. He was friendly knowledgeable and we had a fantastic time, would highly recommend. Time well spent,
Hi Kerry, We are so glad you had a great time with Alan on tour. It is a special time of year for us, all that history to share under a canopy of Christmas twinkle! The guides love it adn we are glad you did too!
This was an excellent way to see many different sights in London. Paul did an excellent job. Our family really enjoyed the tour.
Thanks very much for feeding back and Paul will be pleased to see you mentioned him. So glad you had a wonderful time. Thanks for choosing us.
We had the most wonderful afternoon/early evening viewing the lights around London thanks to the fab John - our driver and guide. So interesting and he took us to lots of great places that got us all in the festive spirit. Great experience for us all from 15yrs to a young 92! Thanks too to Cheryl for making booking etc so easy and smooth. Highly recommend.
Oh thank you Jennie, it was a real pleasure working with you to make it all happen. So glad you had a wonderful time. Happy New Year.
