Excellent London tour - Richard was a fantastic tour guide! He has a wealth of knowledge! We only had 1 day in London but Richard not only hit everything on our list, he also slipped in some fun places for our daughter! He knew the best places and times to see everything! He gave us some great tips to make the most of our evening. Highly recommend Richard! Will definitely use him the next time we are in London!

London condensed into a short visit - Stella was an amazing and hospitable tour guide. She knew we had limited time in the city and planned an efficient route that included all the sights we had requested to see.

Lovely London! - I cannot say enough good things about our tour with Bryan. This was much more than a drive by attractions. How he was able to find easy and close parking amazed me! We were able to spend time and walk around the sites; Buckingham, Westminster, St Paul’s, Parliament , Big Ben, and little know historical spots, like the oldest wine merchant in London. Also, he had connections for easy bathroom breaks! Our group of 6 included some with limited mobility. This did not deter our guide with the stops! He was friendly and very knowledgeable! I learned and saw so much in a day! I enthusiastically recommend Bryan and Black Taxi!

Paula was so kind! - Paula was so kind and very informative! We had booked a tower tour that same morning for 9:30 so we unfortunately didn't get much time with her. She was kind to wait on us while we visited the tower... and drove us around the other city neighborhoods and landmarks. Would definitely use her again in the future for the traditional taxi tour of London.
