The best way to see London is from an iconic London Black Cab. Add to this a qualified driver/guide and you have the full package. London Cabbies face one of the strictest and toughest examination processes known colloquially as The Knowledge. It can take up to 3 years for them to learn every road, street, lane, alley, bar, restaurant, statue, apartment block, Police Station, hotel, church, government building, train station, literally anywhere a paying customer would wish to be taken. They also need to know the quickest route.
On top of all that your driver is also a qualified guide having completed a written and oral exam through the Worshipful Company of Hackney Carriage Drivers. You will travel from west to east and get to feast on all the history, heritage and culture this vibrant city has to offer.

This tour was what we hoped for and more. It does exactly what is says. You get a complete overview of London. Every sight we visited, Paul explained why it was there, what it was used for and had fantastic facts and stories. His storytelling technique is excellent. Travelling around in his iconic black cab was such a joyful experience and even we sawed the London Eye, the Gherkin, Big Ben and Buckingham palace as Paul is an expert of the iconic London landmarks as we sawed during the private black cab sightseeing tour .
Paul was kind, considerate of our needs throughout the tour. We asked questions, he answered them all. This really is the best way to see London. I’ve been on private tours all over the world and this was easily the best.
Thanks again for a first class experience.

We only had 1 day available during our holiday for a tour of the city and we knew Paul Williams of Cabital City Tours was the only guide we wanted! The reviews were all stellar and sure enough our experience lived up to expectations and beyond!!
We asked Paul to give us the London's greatest hits tour in which he expertly navigated the city with so much efficiency and knowledge, with perfect timing we got to see everything!! From Big Ben chiming to the changing of the guard at Westminster to clear traffic for an Abbey Road photo op to name a few. He knew the exact spot for the best photos and we appreciated so much the family photos he took. How lucky that everyone could be in the family photo! He shared so many stories, anecdotes and knowledge that we can't help sharing our new found knowledge with friends and family!
We had the best time touring with Paul! Whether it's your first visit to London or 10th his tour will be the best you'll ever take.
Thank you Paul for your generous spirit, kindness and knowledge of London - we loved every minute!
