Description

Tour Duration: 360 min

Classic London Tour

Discover London from the comfort of a private London Black Taxi. I have been a London Taxi Driver since 1994 and I am also a qualified taxi guide. See traditional sights and iconic buildings at their very best. My routes are planned to optimise viewing and photographic opportunities whether on the move, stationary or walking around the sights. I enjoy taking photos and can help you build a memorable album of your trip. You will discover fascinating facts about London, from its famous architecture and landmarks, to its rich cultural diversity, to its central position in relation to global history. All this from the comfort of a personal taxi allowing the flexibility to stop and walk at interesting points yet the ability to cover large amounts of ground in short periods of time, ensuring you get the most out of your tour!
