        Best Way to Tour London
        My daughter and I recently toured London with our Black Taxi tour guide Barry. He showed us the Landmarks and then some! We visited unique places throughout London. Barry took many photos of us by Landmarks. He was pleasant, funny, and well versed in the history. We thoroughly enjoyed our tour and highly recommend it. Was definitely a highlight of our visit!

        A Great Introduction to London!
        We had a fantastic tour with Ray! I would highly recommend this tour and this company. We were driven around in a Black Taxi that allowed us to move freely about the city and park close to sites. Ray was fun and funny and had great knowledge about the city and English history. We were late for our tour due to a train snafu and Ray was more than happy to extend our tour even though we didn't request it. An absolutely wonderful experience!

        A wonderful Tour of London
        The entire process from the initial inquiring about the tour from the Internet, the specifics of the tour, and the pickup and drop-off with our driver Tim for the tour were flawless. We had some specific requests of locations we wanted to see. They explained that certain locations take a lot of time, so they recommended we do them on our own. Based on what we requested, they suggested the 4-hour tour. They said that if we needed more time that day based on traffic or crowds, we could pay for additional time. Tim our driver was extremely knowledgeable. He was able to show us all our requested sites, along with other sites he thought that we should see in London all in the four hours they suggested. I would like to add that their responses to all our requests was extremely prompt especially since there was a six-hour time difference.

        Rachel was fun, flexible and knowledgeable. She took all of our interests into account. We saw the major highlights of the Beatles career.

        Best way to see London!
        We had an incredible time on our Black Taxi Tour of London. Tim was an instant friend -- kind, knowledgeable, and professional. He was a wealth of knowledge and really worked hard to make sure we saw all the sights. He even made specific recommendations at Borough Market and dropped us off at the Tower of London for our afternoon tour. He had water and sweets for us in the taxi to enjoy between stops. Because of Tim, we have a whole album of memorable photos and we got to enjoy the very best London has to offer. We can't wait to come back for another tour in the future -- London has so much to experience! It is 100% worth it to see London this way -- the iconic black taxis (and their amazing drivers) impress!

        Just AMAZING. Rachel was a superb tour guide
        My boyfriend and I went on the Black taxi Beatles tour. I knew this tour would be great but it was absolutely fantastic. Rachel was the best tour guide I have ever had. She was full of Beatles facts and other information about pubs, food and Londons historic sights. We both had an amazing time. I have kept her business card to share with anyone I know who are coming to London!! Just a great person and knowledgeable tour guide!!

        Amazing Experience with Dennis and Joe!!
        Dennis and Joe were amazing tour guides for our family of 8. They were both very friendly and knowledgeable. This tour exceeded our expectations and was an excellent way to see all the top attractions in London in a short time. I would highly recommend this tour for anyone visiting London for the first time or multiple times. Thanks Dennis and Joe for the hospitality that made for an unforgettable experience!!

        Beatles Tour.
        Our guide, Tim, was extremely knowledgeable about the Beatles and music of the 60s. My three friends and I were picked up at our hotel and driven to different spots of Beatles history. He filmed us walking across Abbey Road, which was very exciting. He took photos of us at every stop and sent them to us. It was the highlight of our visit to London!

        Excellent Tour with Tim
        Tim was very informative and clearly demonstrated a wealth of knowledge about all the sites we visited. He provided snacks, water, and soda. He was so friendly to us—we are from the US and don’t travel internationally nor do we travel in large cities frequently. He went beyond what we expected in providing travel tips and made us feel at ease in London! His friendly, kind demeanor was such a blessing to us. One of us is a big Beatles fan, and Tim made our trip exactly what we asked for in taking us to several important Beatles locations. He also took many photos and a short video of our tour for us. Thanks, Tim!

        Great experiences with lots of fun
        Brian was great as he drove us around town while giving us some historical information about the places. The tour was custom-made to our interests while showing us as many places as possible within the time. I would really like to do it again next time with probably the 6-hours tour instead. Great experience.

        Excellent London tour
        Richard was a fantastic tour guide! He has a wealth of knowledge! We only had 1 day in London but Richard not only hit everything on our list, he also slipped in some fun places for our daughter! He knew the best places and times to see everything! He gave us some great tips to make the most of our evening. Highly recommend Richard! Will definitely use him the next time we are in London!

      The Christmas-lights tour was with driver Paula Pickin.
      She was the perfect guide, chatting along the way and giving us interesting details about places of interest. She took us to places where we wouldn't have gone ourselves. Altough the weather wasn't very cooperative there were plenty of opportunity's to take pictures of the lights on display.
      I you have the opportunity to do this tour, we would recommend booking with Black Taxi Tour London!

      We were utterly blown away by this - Ray, our tour guide, was superb with his knowledge and so considerate (mince pies, drinks and sweets for the kids!). He stopped wherever we wanted and showed us some brilliant hidden gems. Thank you for a very special experience. I’d highly recommend this as a magical way to appreciate London! We have a 3 and 6 year old who loves jumping out to see different places and wouldn’t have the stamina on foot. We also brought the grandparents who know London well but really enjoyed all Ray’s fascinating knowledge!

      We had the best experience with Black Taxi Tour London for our Xmas lights tour. From the start, Angela was super-efficient and helpful. Our flight was delayed in Frankfurt for 8 hours which would mean we would miss our tour, but Angela responded promptly to my email on a Saturday and managed to change the tour for us.
      Tom, our driver/ tour guide was wonderful. Just loved spending the evening with him and he managed to stop in the busiest spots in peak Xmas time for us to get great photos. He took beautiful photos of our family which he sent to us later, so that we wouldn't have to bother with it ourselves. The lights themselves were magical and for us Australians, who were experiencing a Northern hemisphere Xmas for the first time, it was truly magical.
      I can't recommend this tour company highly enough and will definitely be booking with them again.
      Thanks Angela and Tom!

      The tour was fantastic, we were able to see all of the major areas with holiday decorations and lights. It met all expectations and we took many photos! Also, Paula was a great and knowledgeable guide, we appreciated her expertise and she answered our many questions about London. The bonus is that she did show us a few places that we would never find or know about and this included the associated stories and history. We were grateful that she was able to spend her weekend night taking us around London - and it was right before Christmas. We would love to have Paula take us around again the next time we are in town. We had a great time with her!

      We thoroughly enjoyed our Christmas lights tour of London. The lights were amazing and all the rest of the sights in between were a bonus. Our driver, Paula was very knowledgeable and a pleasure to chat with along the way. She happily helped us with pictures of our group and was an absolute star getting us home. This was a family Christmas splurge and well worth every penny.

      What a fantastic tour of the London lights. Not only did he pick up on what we and the children were interested in but took us round lots of back streets to see places we didn't know existed. His knowledge of history and London events and buildings is second to none! Absolutely not to be missed!!!
