London by day is glorious. London by night is glorious and glittering. Can you afford to miss out on those hypnotic nocturnal views? BCHT’s cabbies proudly partner with London’s massive Illuminated River Project to showcase London all lit-up like a Christmas tree. Even outside of the holiday season. Don’t forget your shades. On both our tour options, you get to see the first 4 bridges that will launch Illuminated River. When the art project is complete, it will light up 15 bridges along 2.3  miles of the river. Thames is the star - so many fantastic views from bridges. Stop at the famous Tower Bridge and London Bridge, apart from three others. Blinkers glued and ears on alert for amusing anecdotes about Illuminated River, tidbits on the architecture of the bridges and social history of the diverse communities living along the banks. Finally chew on this. London’s taxi trade expanded historically alongside the pace of the River Thames crossings? This one’s close to our heart.

When my traveling companion suggested the Light Up the Night Tour, i wasn't terribly enthused. Was I wrong! The tour was fabulous and made even better by our personable and knowledgeable guide Paul Hunt. I highly recommend this tour and Paul Hunt.

What a fun tour! My husband and I have been to London many times but have seldom embraced nighttime in the city. This city tour takes you to many of London’s most famous monuments. It is beautiful seeing London uplit at night. Nick was our tour guide. Our first impression is that his taxi was impeccable…nary a speck of dust. Next, Nick is not only an impressive driver but more importantly an amazing guide. He is a kind, professional and a wealth of knowledge.

It was absolutely the best tour that I've ever been on. Out guide, John, was very knowledgeable, very friendly and explained so much of London's history. I definitely have to make a return trip to London, and I definitely recommend this tour service!
