The rickshaw ride was a fabulous way to see a lot of London close up and efficiently. Sil personalised our tour and provided an interesting and informed commentary. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience.
Our rickshaw tour was absolutely amazing. Our guides were the kindest, most knowledgeable gentlemen — truly the best we could have asked for. They took us to all the major sights and surprised us with hidden gems we didn’t even know we’d love. They made sure we were all in the photos at every stop, which made the experience even more special. These gentlemen genuinely deserve the king’s seal of approval. Highly recommend
Thank you for the kind words. We always try to give the best experience possible and we are very glad that you and your family enjoyed it. It was a pleasure.
This was a fantastic intro to London! My teenagers and I flew in from the U.S. We booked this on our jet lag day as an overview, as they don’t like the big bus type tours. They were cranky and tired and I feared it would be a bust. Instead- we had the nicest guide ever. And we were able to access areas that cars (and buses) cannot. He was incredibly accommodating when they wanted to make stops or take our pictures. We all had such a great time- and I could not recommend it more! Our guide was also fantastic with communication and flexibility. He gave me options for specific transportation from Heathrow. And when we arrived ahead of schedule- he moved up the tour. As good of a start to a trip as you could hope for!
Thank you for your kind words. It was a pleasure showing you around London. I'm glad the tour helped get your trip off to a great start. I suspect the coffee deserves some credit too! Enjoy the rest of your travels.
Our tour was amazing! We only had a few days in London and wanted to see the sights without doing too much walking. Sil picked us up from our hotel & customized the entire tour to our interests. He was incredibly knowledgeable, sharing history along the way, and was also a fantastic photographer! It is so nice to have photos to remember that are not just selfies. Sil recommended a morning tour for fewer crowds and we are so glad he did. I travelled with two other adults and we fit in the rickshaw- though it was a tight squeeze- and this tour was a highlight of our trip! Five stars!
Thank you very much for your kind words—your feedback is truly appreciated. It was a pleasure meeting you all, especially right after the marathon. That added a special energy to the day. I also have to say, it was a real privilege to have someone on the tour who has completed all six major marathons—an impressive achievement and not something I encounter often. You were all wonderful company, and I’m glad the tour matched your expectations. I’m especially pleased that the photos will serve as lasting memories beyond the usual snapshots. Thank you again for choosing the tour, and I hope your time in London left you with many great impressions. Warm regards, Sil
Sil, a very gentleman, he adapt our tour based on what we were more interested in. Amazing on head-up and stories of the secret London
Szil is the BEST! I ended up booking two tours. Has so much knowledge and got the absolute best London pictures.
The tour was so much fun and very informative! Sil was excellent at his job and even customized the tour to take us places we hadn’t seen yet, skipping the ones we had already seen. We would definitely go again!
Excellent tour. Sil was very accommodating to find just the right window without rain for our Rickshaw tour. He went above and beyond! Matthew, our guide, did an excellent job of showing us the sites in Westminster and surrounding areas.
What an incredible tour! Sil was an exceptional guide—pedaling us (3 adults) through London while sharing fascinating stories, historical insights, and helping us capture great photos along the way. His deep knowledge of the city’s history and its hidden corners made the experience both educational and entertaining. He navigated the busy London streets with ease, and his warm, friendly personality made the journey even more enjoyable. What an exceptional way to take in so many sights in a few hours especially if you are time constrained. Sil’s tour became one of the highlights of my 75 year old mom’s first trip to London! I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a unique and informative way to explore London! Thanks Sil!
