Best morning in London! - A must do in London! Chris was fantastic - a wealth of information, fun, laughs and trivia! We had no set agenda but he hit all the major highlights and some off the beaten path gems. Will definitely do this again and recommend to all our friends!

Another great time with Small Car Big City - This was my second time using Small Car Big City, and once again it was a fabulous experience! Chris, our driver/guide was loads of fun. Prior to our tour, he reached out to find out more to what we wanted to see and experience. From our input he pieced together a perfect itinerary. We had a couple gin stops, saw some out of the typical tourist stops (even did a little graffiti art) while also seeing some London landmarks. The tour was great, we could have spent hours more exploring London with Chris and Small Car Big City! Thanks for a memorable evening!

Does your family hate tours? This is the tour for you! - This is a perfect tour for a family who hates tours. We enjoyed our time in London without having to get out of the car and without unnecessary standing around.
The car was super fun and the stories that our driver had for us were perfect. Highly recommend. We did the 90 minute tour in a classic Mini cooper.

I never stopped laughing - I knew it was going to be fun the moment we met Chris. After a few quick questions he knew exactly where to take us. We laughed the entire time. He knew his history as well as all of the back roads to skip the traffic. I highly recommend this tour! You will not be disappointed.

Best way to start London! - The views were fantastic! Best way to start our first trip to London! Our guide Chris was outstanding, the mini cooper was so much fun! Highly recommend and we will definitely to it again. My 11 year old son loved every second. You will not regret this private touring of this city! Chris took a ton of pictures for us and gave us the history and customize our tour to our needs!

Unique and incredible experience!!! - Amazing! Can’t say enough about how knowledgeable and friendly our guides Ian and Tom were. Learned so much, and they were very flexible and easy to work with. Showed us great spots that we would’ve never seen otherwise.

An Amazing Experience - An amazing half day with our guide Ian, who was friendly, chatty and knowledgeable. We saw so much in just 4 hours. Ian altered the route so that we could visit Freddie Mercury’s Garden Lodge, which was a place on my bucket list. We saw places like the Leake Arches that we wouldn’t have known about before. A perfect experience and highly recommended. Thank you!
