Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We did three (3) consecutive days of touring with Black Taxi Tour London and saw parts of London we never would have seen. My mom has limited mobility that has in the past restricted the locations we were able to visit due to transportation limitations - this was a non-issue with Black Taxi Tour London. Stella gave us a wonderful 3-hour Christmas Lights tour and Frank followed-up by taking us to all corners of London on two bespoke tours: one was a 4-hour "secret London tour" and the other was a 6-hour tour that hit all the spots my mom wanted to see, from the South Bank up to Notting Hill, over to Dalston and Shoreditch, and everywhere in between. I can't recommend this company more. Both Stella and Frank were knowledgable and provided engaging commentary throughout the tours. We can't say enough about Frank - he spent 10 hours with us and throughout this time he was extremely helpful to my mom, even accommodating her last minute request to visit Dalston. These tours were highlight of our trip. My dad is a tough critic and he's still talking about them. Thank you for helping us to create such wonderful memories!

Amazing time. Our guide, Dennis was great. He was accommodating, knowledgeable, personable, and showed us everything we wanted to see in the short time we were there. The taxi was clean, and roomy. He even had water and snacks for us. I would highly recommend this tour, and guide!

This was by far the most amazing tour we have done during our time in the UK.
From booking with Angela to the tour with Paul what a easy process. Paul was fantastic and understood what we wanted to see and what we didn’t know we wanted to see. He was kind and helpful and took us to incredible places. He took some great photos of us at the attractions and knew where to stand for the best view points. I am so pleased that we decided to do this tour. Book with this wonderful company and you will have the experiences to last forever. Thank you so very much guys. Regards Debbie and Brendan

Traveling by myself, at the start of a 14 day journey, I was a little more than hesitant to book this tour considering I was by myself and it was a bit costly. But life is short and you only live once, so off I went on my 4 hr classic London tour with the amazing Stella! I was feeling poorly on our scheduled day and asked to change pick up locations. Hearing this, Stella offered to delay the start of the tour, which was a great help. She was so kind , incredibly knowledgeable regarding London and English history, and went out of her way to make sure I got to a story where I needed medical supplies. What an amazing journey from beginning to end! Thank you so much Stella!!!

We visited with our 2 Irish friends, even though we are Londoners ourselves we decided a Tour in a Black Taxi would be a great way to see London in a short space of time.
Keith our tour guide was exceptional, his taxi was immaculate. From the moment he picked us up from the airport nothing was too much trouble, he was funny and his knowledge of London was immense. He made our short stay all the more memorable and would highly recommend Black Taxi Tour London.

This was absolutely the BEST tour we took! Our Driver David Burnetts could not have been better! He made the tour so much fun! He tailored the tour to my family some of whom had limited mobility. I am confident that we saw places we would have never seen without him! It was so worth the time and money. This tour would be for anyone as the guide makes it fit your group! EXCELLENT!!!!

We thoroughly enjoyed this tour. Stonehenge is mystical and inspiring, and Bath was a wonderful revelation for us. Our guide, Wes, was terrific. He was full of knowledge and enthusiasm, and really made the whole day very special.

Rachel was a fountain of knowledge. We enjoyed her very much. She is a historian and great driver. Cab was spotless!
So glad we spent the money for the private trip.
