We had such an amazing experience on our private taxi tour! Our driver, Lee, was right on time to pick us up from our hotel. We were already familiar with the typical London highlights, so he took us to places that were unique and interesting. He was very knowledgeable and added many interesting insights into current as well as historical London life. He got to know our personalities during the tour and took us to places he thought we might like. He was right on target! Highly recommend! And be sure to ask for Lee!
Hey Marny, than you so much for the detailed feedback. You most certainly have done a good job describing what we are all about., personalized, dynamic tours, just for you! Lee will be thrilled to know you loved the tour. Thank you for choosing Visit London Taxi Tours.
This was our first time with a tour like this and we found it totally fascinating. Lee was encyclopedic and kaleidoscopic in his clear love and knowledge of London: her thousands of years of history and her people…all the while smoothly negotiating the wild, crazy and continuously intense crush of city traffic, meticulously avoiding traffic jams, knowing just where to stop for the perfect photo op…we were amazed, breathless and totally relaxed during the entire ride! What’s more, he was genuine in his desire to tailor the tour to our interests…no “one-size-fits-all” this excursion!…and so additional art and gardens were found, great places for desserts, interesting pubs located near attractions we planned to visit. I really could go on, but, I’ll conclude with this final thought: no matter his salary, this witty, brilliant, gracious man deserves a raise…
Oh my gosh! Such a lovely review - you have really captured us, the flexibility of our taxi tours and the standard of our guides, thank you for taking the time. Lee is very much appreciated and valued at Visit London Taxi Tours.
I went on the Instagram tour of secret places in London. This was the best tour I’ve ever been on. Lee was an amazing tour guide. He was so knowledgeable and great to talk to AND the best photographer. I have wonderful memories now captured in great photos. I definitely think this is the best tour in London!
Hey Carrie, we are so glad you had a great time and are going home with the memories you wanted. it is our pleasure to make sure you have the best day possible. Thank you for choosing us at Visit London Taxi Tours and sharing some photos.
Seeing parts of London that are mostly hidden rather than the usual tourist spots was fascinating. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable on the history of London and we learned a lot. He took many photos for us and some fun "Bond" style ones in front of MI5. We particularly liked the ruins of the huge Roman Amphitheatre under the Guildhall Art Gallery that we had no idea were there. Well worth doing this tour if you are interested in the history side of things.
Hi Sandra, What a lovely review, thank you. Our guests do really enjoy a Secret London Taxi Tour, especially if they have hit all the big spots before. I will feed back Sam. Thank you.
This was our last tour in London and it was amazing! Our tour guide Lee was very knowledgeable, personable and flexible. I wish now that we had booked him for the previous day as well.

Glenn was our guide for the half day tour and everything about it was great. He was so knowledgeable, super friendly, and professional. The pick up at our hotel was on time. The taxi was comfortable. We learned so much about London we would have missed. We were so glad we did this tour.
Great to hear you were happy with your Secret London taxi tour and Glenn. London is full of hidden corners and gems the average guest doesn't come across without a little help. I'll make sure Glenn gets our feedback. Thanks for choosing Visit London Taxi Tours.
Alan was a lovely tour guide who stood in last minute. He was friendly, knowledgeable and chatty. He looked after us very well and we really enjoyed seeing parts of London we had never seen. Big thank you to Alan and also Cheryl.
Thank you very much for the feedback and coming such a long way to enjoy our London taxi tour. I am so glad it all work out well for you.
Very enjoyable tour and a great way to see elements of London you wouldn’t normally see. Alan was very knowledgable and as a family we thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience.
Hi there, It's great to know you all had a good time, especially as we needed to keep the children engaged too. Alan said you were a lovely family, a real treat to take out. Thank you so much for choosing Visit London Taxi Tours to discover secret London.
We had a fantastic Taxi Tour guide, she was friendly, fun and knowledgable. We heard some fascinating stories and fun facts about London. The tour had been adapted to show us old places we knew and there was some lovely nostalgia for us. The 3 hours just flew by leaving us wanting more. The taxi was modern and so clean and comfy. During the ride we did stretch our legs and had a tea break. Highly recommend!
Hi Julie, Such a great review, thank you. I will let karen know. Thank you for opting for a voucher when we had to cancel your Christmas Lights taxi tour because of another lock down. Postponing your tour really helped this small business keep it’s nose above water and we are very very grateful. Best wishes Cheryl
