We recommend and thank our driver/guide Goldon for sharing his knowledge and little secrets about London and for his investment and humor during the 4-hour ride in a typical London taxi!
Thank you for your review. We are so pleased that you enjoyed your tour with our guide Gordon.
The tour guide was great but the interior of the car was dirty and gross. Looked like years of dirt. Really ruined my experience. And for $700?! Get the car cleaned!
Dear Nadia, Thank you for reviewing your private black cab tour from 30th December 2023. While we are pleased our guide provided great service, we deeply apologise that the vehicle's interior fell short of our standards. We completely agree that for a premium $700 experience, an immaculate vehicle is absolutely non-negotiable. This must have been a completely isolated one-off incident, as we strictly expect all of our vehicles to be pristine for every single booking. We have taken your feedback on board and we removed that particular taxi for a deep clean.
Our guide, Andrew, is knowledgeable and passionate about hi home. Andrew described the history of each point of interest in detail. He mixes in brief walking portions with the driving. Very interesting approach.
We are glad that you had an interesting tour with our guide Andrew.
Andy was the best guide we could have asked for! He showed us all the hidden gems of London. I can guarantee you'll never hear about this on a hop on and off bius tour. We got out about 6 times to look at Monuments etc... and get the best stories! We loved every minute of it!
We are so pleased that you thoroughly enjoyed your tour with Andy.

Had a fantastic tour of London with Andrew. Learned some history that I was unaware of and and some places I hadn’t seen before. Highly recommend.
We are so glad that Andrew was able to show you sights that you were unaware off and thank you for highly recommending this tour.
Had a fun time with Mick seeing the out of the way sights in London. Was very happy to get to see the statue of Diana arc Kensington Palace, wonderful old wine shop, the only statue of Henry the 8th, the court area and got dropped off at Harrod’s! A perfect tour. Thank you!
