Additional Information

Discover London’s top attractions in a time-efficient manner with an experienced driver-guide. This includes a tour of the city’s heart, featuring must-see locations such as Buckingham Palace, Westminster Abbey, and the Tower of London.

Spend just half a day to experience the authentic London through the eyes of a local cabbie who’s well-versed with every corner of the city, places that are inaccessible to a 50-person bus tour. There will even be recommendations for the finest coffee spots.

There will be periods for taking pictures and brief strolls at famous locations to see as much of London as possible within 4 hours. Feel at ease to let your guide know about the places you don’t want to miss out on.

Personal, efficient overview of the city - Hugo is a friendly font of information about London, and his carefully curated tour does a great job giving you an overview for the city's main--and some obscure--landmarks with a minimal waste of time in traffic. You will get out at a number of locations for photos and/or commentary, but not for any significantly ticketed spaces (i.e. Tower of London, St. Paul's, etc), so be prepared to circle back on your own if you want to pursue any one place more in depth.

We’d do it again in a heartbeat! - If I could give Tracey 10 stars, I would! She was PHENOMENAL! My aunt had 1 day in London, and my husband and I were scheduled to stay for 7 more days. Tracey gave us a whirlwind tour of all of the high points, yet we didn’t feel rushed at all. My aunt felt like she got to see London in a day, and my husband and I were able to note all the places we wanted to return to for a more in depth look. Tracey’s knowledge about the history of London was impressive. She also gave us a quick history of modern architecture (the Gherkin, the Walkie-Talkie, and the Shard). She asked us about what we were interested seeing, and dropped us off at The George because my aunt really wanted an authentic British pub. Tracey also took the time to ask about any concerns or limitations we might have. As young pups (late 50’s) my husband and I didn’t have any concerns. My aunt was somewhat concerned with stairs and Tracey was super conscientious about where we went and stops we made. Finally, Tracey made us feel like we were more than just another cab ride for her. We ran into her two days after we took her tour. She knew us on sight and asked on point questions. Her cab tour was the highlight of our trip!

Best way to see London. - Mick is a fantastic tour guide. He is very knowledgeable and strives to adapt the tour to the interests of his guests. And he can park the cab close to the destinations so you see quite a lot in the time allotted. This was a great tour.
