Join me on an epic private adventure around the city in my iconic black cab. You will discover the real London through the eyes of a Londoner. This experience will bring to life the history and culture of this magnificent town and the people who live here. I have been proudly navigating these streets for the last 12 years, so, as you can imagine, there's not much I don't know.
From the Unmissable World Famous sights that London has to offer to the Secret parts of the City that visitors rarely see, we will meander our way around 20km of streets exploring all that London has to offer. Sit back in the comfort of my electric taxi complete with glass panoramic roof, and I will bring the sights to you, pointing out interesting facts and trivia of what you will see. We'll stop for photos whenever we please, at all the best spots and at our own pace :-)
There's no safer and more convenient way to explore London.
PLEASE NOTE - THIS WILL BE A PRIVATE TOUR SO YOUR PARTY WILL BE THE ONLY GUESTS IN THE TAXI

Découvrez les secrets de Londres hors des sentiers battus
London is only truly experienced when you venture off the well-worn tourist track so that you can see, hear and feel the place the same way a local does. Only then will you get close to the true essence, to the true heart, to the very fabric of the place you are in and have an experience like no other.
We'll leave the famous main sights to the side and are going to peek behind the scenes of glitzy mainstream London away from the tourist areas.
We'll see local communities, walk along an exotic street market and discover urban oddities. I am looking forward to sharing my knowledge about London's modern urban history, about its current challenges and future developments.
Also, there's a nice break at a street market where we can grab some lunch (not included in the price).
I am very much looking forward to having you on my London safari. Let me take you by the hand and lead you through the streets of London, show you something to make you change your mind.

Les pubs cachés de Londres
Join us for a 3hr historical stumble down the "street of shame". Starting in the shadow of the iconic St.Paul's cathedral, we explore the tiny backstreets and rambling courtyards the ancient City of London is famous for. We follow in the drunken footsteps of literary greats including Dickens, Shakespeare, Pepys & Johnson whilst pausing for a drink in at least 4 of the most historic pubs dating as far back as the 1500's. From discovering art nouveau gems to glamorous Victorian gin palaces we enjoy a variety of pub styles and breweries along the way. It's not a prescriptive tour, so you choose & pay for your drinks along the way. We're here to offer recommendations, and you can often "sip before you sup" with a few tasters on request from the bars along the way. This allows you to indulge as much or as little as you desire! Non-drinkers can soak up the history, and wine & gin-lovers are also well catered for. We usually finish up on the edge of Covent Garden perfect for theatre-land, restaurants and of course more pubs including one that claims to be the most haunted in London!
