- Roam150591450290 contributionsGreat tourThe tour Super nice we got to see scenes from Harry Potter. Movies were filmed like Spider-Man, Harry Potter, etc.. Overall, really nice tour to see places like big Ben and we saw King Charles going into Buckingham PalaceWritten 5 December 2024
- 45eldar0 contributionsHighlight of our week in London!Dave was an amazing tour guide for the day, and we had such a fun time with him exploring London. We can't recommend Dave & this tour enough. The knowledge that he shared with us on all the places we visited was outstanding. The time flew by, and it was clear during the day that Dave was well regarded by his peers when we came across other groups doing private tours. His local legend status was further demonstrated when he was able to spontaneously arrange a special visit for us at Berry Bros & Rudd's original location after a comment about the storefront when we drove by. Certainly a day that we will all have fond memories of, thank you Dave!Written 2 December 2024

From the start, Dave was welcoming, incredibly knowledgeable, and eager to tailor the journey to our interests. Whether we wanted to visit iconic landmarks like Buckingham Palace, uncover hidden gems, or learn quirky facts about the city, he made it all happen with ease. His warm, friendly demeanor and deep passion for London’s history made the tour feel like exploring the city with a local friend. If you’re looking for a personal, engaging way to see London, I highly recommend Black Cab Heritage Tours!Written 22 November 2024

- Curious410363835700 contributionsWill Jones is the Best Tour Guide for LondonWill Jones is easily the best tour guide you could ask for. The tour took us all over London and he had information and/or a story about every aspect of the city. He made sure we were able to catch the Changing of the Guard and knew all the best photo locations. He clearly had a strong passion for London’s history. By the end of the tour, we felt we had covered most of the major locations in London which was impressive for how much there is.Written 21 November 2024
- philippe1130 contributionsamazing experience and tourAfter a recommendations from a friend who used your service we decided to book a tour the day after our arrival in London to get a good lay of the land and places we were going to visit more in depth after our tour. We received a text the day before to confirm pick up time and location and were greeted warmly by Dave who instantly recognized that we were in London from Texas to celebrate our 23rd wedding anniversary. ill spare the detail on the next four hours because every moment spent with Dave were fun and incredibly informative . Dave was an absolute delight and so incredibly knowledgable about London history. We are extremely thankful for his time and the very personal experience we received . Dave made us stop at the oldest wine purveyor in London and was kind enough to purchase a small bottle of their ginger liquor to celebrate our wedding anniversary. This is service.Written 20 November 2024

Gary is an exceptionally knowledgeable guide, but somehow he’s able to share all this knowledge in a super friendly way almost like you’ve known him forever.

Absolutely brilliant afternoon with Bill (William on a Sunday).He managed to cram in so much information about Jack the Ripper and The Krays whilst navigating the busy roads of the east end.
Bill really does know the knowledge, and we recommend BCHT and Bill to anyone wanting to have an memorable experience whilst staying in London.

Terrific fun. Mick was a wonderful guide. Great way to see some of East End and enjoy a spooky mystery. Was a cold evening, so we were very happy to have the warmth of a new, roomy black cab to take us around!
