London by Night with Niko - great last minute tour and wonderful guide! - We did the London by Night Tour in a classic mini cooper wth Niko. It was a last minute request and Tony was very helpful with the booking and making the arrangements for us. This was a wonderful way to show London to a guest and see the Christmas lights at the same time. Niko was a wonderful tour guide and we enjoyed every minute!

Small Car Big City Makes Girls Trip Fab! - Such a fantastic time exploring London with Small Car Big City! Our driver Chris was awesome and took us to all the major landmarks plus some hidden gems. Chris was so knowledgeable about the city and also entertained us with Garry Potter trivia and Paddington fun facts, I would definitely come back for one of Chris’s tours — he does Harry Potter tours and Paddington themed tours that sound incredible. Plus tooling around London in a Mini Cooper is a unique and eye catching way to see the city. We got a ton of fabulous pictures even better memories. Our girls trip had six so we took two cars and everyone loved it!

10/10 for Big City Small Car - I am so sorry this review is late but time ran away with me. We thoroughly enjoyed our tour of London with Sean. It was great to do something different. Sean was very friendly and informative. Would highly recommend.

The Thrill of London in a Mini Car - This company is top notch. It was exactly as advertised and we were picked up from our hotel-door to door service. Our driver Rhiannon was punctual, knowledgeable, and a fantastic driver. We took photos with our classic Mini car name Ada, and it was an absolute thrill to toodle around the city. Rhiannon told us details of the city that we did not know about, and she made stops for us to have a walkabout. Complimentary water was available. The sights especially driving down The Mall was exhilarating! The open sunroof lent itself to taking photos of Big Ben, House of Commons, Westminister Abbey, St. Paul's Cathedral, Burlington Arcade, Waterloo station & the Graffiti tunnel under the station, and much more. Rhiannon made us feel welcomed, and she and the car ride was a definite highlight of our trip to London. Highly recommend! To note: I was able to get into the back seat easily, but those with mobility issues might not be able to do this maneuver. Best to discuss before renting. Thank you for making our time unique and special.

Fabulous introduction to London and hidden gems - We LOVED our private tour! It was such a great way to kick-start our vacation and see some of the lesser known areas and be able to park in quick spots to jump out for photo opps (and leaving our own graffiti). Zipping around the city was so much faster and personal than a large bus. The cars do require a bit of limbo action to hop in the backseat....but that added to the fun.

A great way to see the city! - Our Sunday morning tour with Chris was excellent. He was early to our pick up, did some quick adjustments to hit all of the sites on our list, and knew great places for beautiful photos. The car is adorable, and comfortable (once you squeeze in!). Thank you, Chris!

Great tour but didn’t quite meet the brief. - We had a great evening zipping around London and Sean we a great guide keeping us informed and entertained throughout. The experience of nipping around the sights of London in the evening is great and the little car certainly gets plenty of admiring glances along the route. Given it’s (and our) age the car is really comfortable, getting in and out multiple times added to the fun. Out only gripe was with the content of the tour we were on, we picked the Cops, Robbers - True Crime tour and felt it didn’t quite meet the brief, it was more like a general tour of central London with some historic facts thrown in, it felt a little lacking on the crime and seedy side of London that we had hoped for. I would 100% recommend Small Car Big City but maybe not the tour we chose.

Overpriced, short London tour, teacup size car - The driver was very nice, the car was extremely uncomfortable. This tour's price in comparison to other tours we did with viator in the same time period seemed exorbitantly pricey by comparison to amount of time, guide knowledge and comfort we are accustomed to
