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.

I did a tour with David who drives a black cab and when you go in the cab he gives you some snacks and drinks when we started the trip we went to watch the changing of the guards then we went to Leaden hall Market where a Harry Potter scene was made and we got dressed up and took some pictures then we went to the Tower of London where we re-enacted and simulated someone getting executed. I had a lovely day and learned a lot from David. I would definitely recommend for 7 and above.

We had a fantastic time with David on our Beatles London tour. It was great to see so many iconic locations connected with the fab four! David had clearly done a huge amount of research. He gave fascinating insights into the significance of each site and fluently linked it to the rich rock and roll history of London.
Not only was David, funny, incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about the Beatles in London, he was able to speak from his experiences in the swinging 60s and it was great to hear from someone who had clearly lived it!
Real highlights were soaking up the atmosphere on a circuit of Soho, seeing John Lennon's house and reenacting the iconic Abbey Road cover art outside the legendary studios.
Thank you for a great day out David - highly recommended!

This is one tour you don't want to miss when in London. David our tour guide was so knowledgeable on the Beatles. He felt like a friend we knew for a long time. He was our highlight of our trip to London. We would have gave him 10 stars if it was available.

I know the tour is going to be good when the tour guide arrives early. David came early and greeted us with a smile. What a delight to see London and the East End from the back of a London Taxi with a real life Jewish Taxi Driver. He was professional, friendly, informative and accommodating. It was just my wife and he made a couple of adjustments to accommodate our time needs and where we needed to be after the tour. London has a long Jewish history and we experienced part of it with David from the back of his taxi. Be forewarned though that some of what you will experience is being in the neighborhood of what was there. The real Jewish presence has moved away from the East End. For those of you that have traveled to the Lower East Side in NYC - very reminiscent of traveling on Orchard Street. David does other tours and when we come back we will definitely avail ourselves of his other tours.

It was our first time in London and it couldn’t have gone better! David was an amazing tour guide who has a great personality and sense of humor. He is very knowledgeable on the Beatles and amazed my family and I on every bit of detail he included in the history tour. He provided snacks and water for us which was a very kind gesture. He also took plenty of photos for us and allowed us to visit the gift shop at Abbey Road Studios. One of my favorite aspects of the tour was his storytelling and visual representations.

David is an amazing tour director. He's very knowledgeable about the history of the area. He knew more about the Beatles than I did...which is saying something. He does everything he can to make sure you have the best tour anywhere. I would highly recommend David for any type of tour. I can't say enough about the way we were treated, the things we were shown and the things we learned along the way. David is the best around.

The Beatles tour was absolutely awesome. We just can’t say enough. This was one of the best tours we have taken. David was not only a tour guide but a outstanding host. He connected with each member of our group. We had a very fun experience, and is one of the first things we share with people who ask us how we enjoyed our trip. We look forward to our next opportunity to go on another tour with him.
