Wonderful customized trip - Wonderful tour of the city using our limited time to the max. Bryan picked us up directly for the airport terminal and was a wealth of knowledge and information! He customized our tour to accommodate our interests and added in many hidden gems. I highly recommend this well run company!

Wonderful custom tailored tour of London! - We had the best day seeing London! Bryan was and excellent guide having a wealth of knowledge and information. He tailored our tour perfectly to include what we asked for as well as many hidden gems. The black cab was roomy and comfortable. Bryan even went out of his way to make sure our luggage got secured at the hotel before he took us back to the London Tower for a tour and suggested where to eat afterwards!

We saw all the London highlights in 4 hrs. guided by his expertise of all things London. We couldn't have asked for a nicer, more knowledgeable person. Of course my special request was walking across Abbey Rd and I also got to see Paul McCartney's London home. Thanks again Morris. It was such a memorable day!

Excellent, highly recommended tour - This was a great tour. Bryan is nice, knowledgeable and flexible, which makes the tour specialized to your group. Bryan took us to parts of London that we would have never seen on our own. I do not recommend doing the typical tourist sites with him. Instead, do those on your own and let Bryan take you to see the "real" London. You will learn history and interesting facts, good for both adults and children. Highly recommend this tour!

Incredible Tour & Experience - Amazing tour with Bryan! He picked us up at the airport and took us on a wonderful city tour while we waited to check in to our hotel. We saw hidden gems of London that we would have never known about, and the iconic landmarks, giving us the lay of the land for our week in London. Bryan’s wealth of knowledge was incredible as he provided history and insight about all of the sights he took us to. We had so much fun spending the day with Bryan! As a bonus, we had the pleasure of meeting Gill, as she drove us back to the airport at the end of our week! Highly recommend, we couldn’t have enjoyed more! Thank you!

Amazing Tour Company for layovers or just Touring - My partner and I knew we had planned a long layover in London between our connections and wanted to see some sights we'd never seen before, so we booked with Black Taxi Tours of London. Ray was our guide and also the founder. He picked us up right at the arrivals hall, where we went on our 9-hour tour with him. This was all arranged by his wife, Angela, who runs the office and was very responsive and helpful as we planned/booked and paid for this trip. Ray, our guide, was a walking encyclopedia of detailed information. His insights and knowledge were like a crash course in the history and culture of the places we visited, leaving us feeling not just entertained, but also educated and enlightened. Our journey took us to Wells Cathedral, Stonehenge, and the Cotswolds. Ray's personal touch was evident as he took us to a local eatery he personally recommended. The food was not just authentic, but also delicious. We were delighted to have Ray join us for lunch, sharing more about the area and England in general. We've been to the UK many times, but this was by far one of the most memorable tours we've done. You should leverage this company and ask for Ray if you can get him; he's wonderful, as is the entire experience.

AMAZING!!! - Bryan was amazing!! We highly recommend a tour of London with Bryan as your guide - he has wealth of knowledge that is unsurpassed! We learned so much about the history of the City of London and of the many landmarks in London. Bryan went out of his way to show us the sights, but gave us so much more in colorful details about what we were seeing. Thank you, Bryan, for your friendship and care of us on this incredible tour!! You're the best!!
