Paul was wonderful. Nice British accent easy to understand and cheerful.
So glad you enjoyed your time with Paul. Thank you for taking the time to feedback.
Paul gave us a wonderful tour of London. He kept personalizing it along the way as we discussed what we had seen. He is very knowledgeable about both how to get around, but even the details of the repair of Big Ben.
Thank you for taking the time to leave this. Paul is very good at reading the room and shaping the tour as he goes, so it’s great to know that worked so well for you. We’ll make sure he sees your kind words. Every review helps our small independent business - so thank you again.
Paul was fantastic! Well worth it, had a great time.
Short and very sweet - thanks very much. Paul will be pleased to hear the feedback
Paul, our driver was outstanding. Very instructive of all the beautiful sights in London. In particular, the Royal Warrant of Approval establishments were something that I wasn’t aware and were wonderful places to see and experience.
Thank you for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful review. Paul will be really pleased to hear this. The Royal Warrant shops are a lovely detail of London that many visitors don’t know about, so it’s great to hear you enjoyed discovering them. We’re very grateful you chose to see London with us on a private taxi tour and really appreciate you sharing your experience.

Our tour was with Glen who was absolutely superb. He was very accommodating to our time we had available. He made sure that we hit all the things to see on our list and more! There is no way we could have done everything we did on our own, and the icing on the cake was his knowledge of the history of London was never ending. Can't recommend this tour enough, it truly made our trip very memorable!
Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We’re delighted to hear that your tour with Glen was such a highlight of your trip. It’s great to know he was able to work around your schedule, cover everything on your list (and more!), and share his endless knowledge of London’s history along the way. Making your visit memorable is exactly what we aim for, and your kind words mean a lot. We’ll be sure to pass your compliments on to Glen – he’ll be thrilled to know how much you enjoyed your time together. We hope to welcome you back for another adventure in London in the future!
