Best Beatles tour 5 stars - Paul really took care of us. We were picked up on time, waters and umbrellas were ready to go. Paul is so knowledgeable. He has an IPad with pictures and videos of the history we are seeing . Best of all was his way of re-production of the zebra crossing. We were thrilled. Truly a bucket list done for these Beatles fans. Thank you Paul.❤️

Out of this world London Beatles Tour! - My Dad is probably one of the biggest Beatles fans around. He’s old enough to have seen them! I was recommended Paul by a friend and they sung his praises from the rooftops. Well, they were right. My Dad was in heaven. Paul showed us all things related to The Beatles. He is an amazing storyteller. At moments I felt like we were transported back to the 1960’s. He has images and video footage of that era and you feel like you are really there.
Riding around in his black cab is also a real treat. It’s clean, comfy and he drives in a professional and courteous manner. If you are a Beatles fan, book this tour. It’s out of this world!

Definite must for Beatles fans!!! - Such fun!!!! We did this tour because 2 of the 5 of us are avid Beatles fans, however, everyone thoroughly enjoyed it! Paul not only took us to the Beatles highlights in London, he had a iPad videos and photos cued up to go along with his presentation. Not to mention instructing us and taking the iconic picture with us walking across Abbey road!! This was so much fun that even the non Beatles fanatics in the family had a great time!

Our Magical Mystery Tour - We loved living A day in the Life of the Beatles. Our tour taxi driver, Paul, was so knowledgeable and took us throughout London sharing behind the sciences trivia while we saw all things Beatles. A true highlight of our trip and we will treasure our “cross walk picture” on Abbey Road forever. A must for any Beatles fan!

Amazing London Beatles tour - The Beatles in London Private Taxi Tour
We are overwhelmed with gratitude to Paul Williams for the amazing experience he provided us. You know when a young person who didn’t grow up with the Beatles is as captivated by them as us older fans, you’ve hit the jackpot. Paul made the Beatles come alive, bringing us to places they lived, worked, played, narrating and allowing us to reenact iconic moments in their history. What a thrill to run down the sidewalk on Boston Place, where the lads are seen running from fans at the beginning of Hard Day’s Night. Then of course there was the reenactment of walking across Abbey Road which Paul expertly orchestrated, allowing time for perfection, while looking out for our safety. We saw so many places that we didn’t expect to see including the Indica Gallery where John met Yoko, Ringo’s home in London where so many artists came and went, Paul’s current home, and Apple Corps headquarters where they performed together for the last time. What a potpourri of emotions gazing up at that rooftop. The background stories and photos that Paul provided along the way made them come alive and gave us so much more than these hardcore Beatles fans ever expected. We highly recommend Cabital City Tours of London for an informative, fascinating, and fulfilling Beatles in London experience. Thank you so much Paul.

The Beatles Tour in London - This tour was a great experience for us. I booked this tour for my Dad and Uncle (80s) mainly for the purpose of having a private car service with driver to take us around the city. The Beatles theme was just a plus. We ended the tour enjoying every minute we had and were even talking about our entire experience all throughout the night. Our driver, Paul Williams is the best because he is well informed and had a great sense of humor. He understood our senior's needs and very accommodating. I would highly recommend this trip to Beatles fans who will visit London. Thanks Paul for a memorable fun experience. We wish you the best!
