Greg was did an outstanding job of personalizing our tour to not duplicate what we had already seen and he showed us not only all the highlights of London but done off the beaten path gems! We were delighted with the history of London, architecture, knowledge of WW2, the Great Fires, the history of the monarchy and all the other great details he provided to us. His driving was superb. We are so happy we booked this tour and highly recommend!!

Ollie was absolutely amazing! Wow what a private tour of London we experienced! We would have never been able to find what he showed us and also understand the rich history and interesting facts of London in 6 hours! He was so friendly, knowledgeable, funny and he has a special lane for driving and parking that saved us a bunch of time touring! He even made sure we made it in time to the Changing of the Guard…wow what an experience that was! He can even personalize the tour for you! Ollie is a London native and has been driving taxis for 25 years! Thank you Ollie we had the best day! Oh and he will be your personal photographer too which is a huge bonus!

Excellent way to see the sights and learn about London - We had a fantastic time with Dean, he was so knowledgeable and super flexible fitting in some places we specifically wanted to visit. Such a lovely person with so much local knowledge and tips . Best way to get around and see everything in one go if you have limited time. Easy to hop on and hop off as he knew all the best spots to get great pics and see everything. We did the trip on the hottest day of the year and if we didn’t have his help we would have missed so many London sights. Perfect way to get around the city !! Would highly recommend Dean as the driver - we learnt so much about the history of London . Excellent trip
