Fantastic! We had a limited amount of time in London, so wanted to see as much as possible. We took the 6 hour tour and more than got our money’s worth! Our tour guide, Terry was amazing, with his knowledge of history and stories! I am a fan of British history and wow, he was a pro! He was extremely polite and energetic! There was never a dull moment. Tour was completely customizable. Highly recommend!
Patrick was our tour guide and he was incredible. This was the best tour we've ever had. He showed us all of the highlights of London and Patrick had many background stories to make it more interesting. We saw Buckingham Palace and the Changing of the Guard as well as going behind the scenes at infamous hotels and bars Patrick accommodated all our interests and our needs. It was an incredibly personal experience.
It was so good! Gary took to all the places that you should see in London and then places that were not on our radar to see!
Amazing 6 hour tour ! Gary was our driver and he was a 10/10!!! Very knowledgeable and professional! The day was filled with great memories and laughs! Thank you for giving us the best tour day and special shout out to Gary!!!
We had a truly wonderful guided tour experience. My mother uses a wheelchair, so we chose the Ultimate 6-Hour Private Tour in an iconic black cab, which allowed us to explore at her own pace. Our driver, Louie, was amazing and went above and beyond to assist my mother. He even explained the history and details of every place we visited in Spanish, which made the experience even more special. We highly recommend this tour and especially Louie for his kindness, knowledge, and exceptional service.

Mick was full of knowledge. Would definitely book this tour again with Mick. It is our first time in London and our first tour of our trip and mick has set the bar high for other tours. Thank you very much Mick
Our driver, Ryan was flexible, extremely knowledgeable in the history of England and fun to be with. We had a few must sees but were delighted with places Ryan took us to that we hadn't thought to go. Great tour!
We had a great day that was enjoyable and educational with Richard. Six hours gave an opportunity to see a variety of places and Richard picked places that worked well with the locations we planned to visit on our own. Highly recommend!
