Itinerary
Abbey Road Studio is one of the worlds most important buildings in music history. It is where the Beatles recorded almost all of their albums in the 1960's. Plenty of photos opportunities. Walk across the famous zebra crossing, make your mark on the graffiti wall, visit the Abbey Road shop, and hear sensational stories of the Fab Four.
Carnaby Street was at the centre of the swinging 60's. The district of Soho is littered with musical history. This is where the Beatles earned their stripes, danced and played the night away. You will get to see the other famous studio that the Fab Four used to record iconic tracks. The venue where Paul met his wife Linda, as well as the courthouse and cell where John Lennon spent the night.
It was here, after a show in 1963, that the term 'Beatlemania' was born! Hear about how the Fab Four caused chaos after one particular show and look at the social, political and financial revolution taking place at an area steeped in history of all kinds.
This delightful Georgian house in the premier district of London's Mayfair, is where the Beatles performed their last live gig on the roof-top in 1969. Hear how this beautiful building was run during the Beatles era, and inside discover display cabinets full of Beatles memorabilia.

Dennis had great Beatles knowledge and was well versed on lots of British rock. Great experience for someone like me who appreciates the great moments of classic British music
Many thanks for your review! We’re so glad you enjoyed your time with Dennis. His passion for the Beatles and British rock always shines through, and it’s brilliant to hear it connected so well with a fellow music lover.jo
Tim picked us up right where he was suppose to and was wonderful and very knowledgeable. Most of us had not been to London and we wanted to see a Beatles tour this was fabulous. Tim also says he does other tours but we already had tours set up. We wish we didn't we would have loved to have Tim our private tour guide the whole time we are in London. He took so many pictures of us and sent them to us we didn't have to ask and was not required to pay he just gave the pictures to us. Thank you Tim for making our trip wonderful.
Thank you so much for your review! We are so glad you enjoyed the Beatles tour and that we could help make your time in London special. Wishing you many more amazing travels. We hope to see you again on your next visit!
We had the most amazing experience with our guide/driver Paul Williams. He was knowledgeable, professional and we could not ask for a better day! Paul was friendly and very customer focused - he went out of his way to answer our questions, provide us with a wealth of information about the rock and roll history of London and we learned a lot about artists and how they lived here. We'd highly recommend this tour to others
Thank you for your review and recommendation, we are pleased to hear that you enjoyed your tour and time with Paul.
We had an excellent time, Paul Williams was a great host and driver.
Thank you!
We had an outstanding tour thanks to Michael, our driver and guide. He was THE BEST… incredibly well-versed in ‘all things Beatles’ and made sure that we not only covered the well-known stops (like Abbey Road Studios) but also took us to see some hidden gems (like Brian Epstein’s home and filling locations for ‘Hard Days Night’). We HIGHLY RECOMMEND this wonderful tour… it’s a must for Beatles fans of any age.
Thank you so much for your kind review. We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed your Beatles tour with Mick — he’ll be thrilled to know! We hope to welcome you back again soon for another memorable London experience.
My daughters and I had a fun and memorable tour of notable Beatles-related locations in London. Our guide, Barry, was fun and knowledgeable. He took great care of us.
Thank you Jocelyn. Barry really enjoyed your company and taking you out on tour too! We hope you enjoy the rest of your trip.
Tim our tour guide was top notch. He was very knowledgeable and was patient with us as we wanted to get the perfect shot of us walking the Abbey Road crossing. I highly recommend this tour!
What a terrible unknowledgeable tour guide! This tour was not worth the money! I believe the guide makes the tour and this one was not worth the money. Driving around and having silence in the cab and no guide is ridiculous.
We are sorry to hear that your client did not enjoy their Beatles Tour in London. As per our email correspondence, the Driver Guide has many years of experience as a licensed London Taxi Driver, in addition to over 10 years of guiding in central London. She has a wealth of knowledge and experience in navigating the roads and taking travellers out on tour. She always receives 5 star excellent reviews from travellers. On the date of this tour, the Pride of London parade was taking place, which meant there were road closures and a significant increase in people visiting London. The Driver Guide tried to make contact in advance with your clients to advise this, however the telephone number on the booking was incorrect. She did her upmost to navigate the tour around the parade as best as she could, and completed the tour as per the 4 hours booked. Your client did not at any time ask to conclude the tour early, or make any complaints to either the Driver Guide or directly to our admin team in the office. He concluded the tour and gave the Driver Guide a gratuity tip. If we had known of their disappointment earlier, we would have done our upmost to rectify any issues they had and ensure they were happy.
We had a wonderful time with Dennis on the Beatles Tour. He was a wealth of knowledge about the Beatles and other musicians as well! He went putt of his way to accommodate us. I also want to thank Angela for being on top of reorganizing our tour when our first driver had technical troubles. I am sure he would have been great too, but we were destined to be with Dennis! I would recommend this tour company to anyone!
Thank you so much for your review, we are so pleased that you had a wonderful time out with Dennis. We hope you enjoy the rest of your vacation. All the best, BTTL
David met my husband and I at our Hotel, right on time. We began the morning at St. James Palace to watch and learn about The Changing of the Guards. On our walk to the BLACK TAXI we chatted about our expectations of the Beatles Tour and he shared what he hoped our experience would be. David was prepared with ice cold waters and a snack bag with treats for our 5 hour day. David was a great story teller, setting up each presentation as we arrived to a destination. Our favorite stop was arriving at Abby Road, David took pictures of us crossing the crosswalk and came prepared with markers so that we could sign the wall in front of Abby Road Production. We plan to share Black Taxi Tour with friends heading to London. So many tour options presented by David.
Thank you so much for your review and recommendations. We are pleased that you enjoyed your tour out with David, and hope to see you again in the future.
