A MUCH better way to spend 7 hours than sitting at Heathrow - Booked via Viator but found out we could have saved about $200 booking direct with Black Cab Heritage Tours website. That didn’t spoil our experience, however. Tour was scheduled to start at 7 AM, but I messaged the company and they easily accommodated an earlier start for us. We were met at Arrivals before 6 AM by our driver and guide, Ryan who did a great job with our limited time. Our early start meant we got to see Buckingham Palace, Big Ben, Parliament and Westminster Abbey from the outside and get photos with no one else around. It was actually great to get an early start and avoid the crowds. Ryan’s cab was immaculately, clean and comfortable. He knew all the little spots to park close to where we wanted to walk around, which made for a very easy-going and pleasant morning. He had a great knowledge of the city and some history, and we really enjoyed our time with him. He was flexible and responsive to our needs and requests, but also had lots of great ideas for what to do in our time since we didn’t have specific items to see. Since we were so early, there was no traffic into the city from Heathrow, but we are told that that can typically take an hour of your time and it did take about an hour on our way back, so plan accordingly. Ryan had us back at Heathrow on time for our flight and we really enjoyed our day in London. Our total time from pickup to drop off was a bit under 7 hours. We highly recommend Ryan and Black Cab Heritage Tours.

Fantastic day! - Mick Greenwood gave us a spectacular tour. He was so knowledgeable and really made us feel like family! Best tour experience ever! Absolutely fantastic day. If we are ever back in London we’ll request another tour with Mick. Thank you Mick!!!!

Great Tour of London - Ryan was fantastic. Picked us up at Hilton at the airport and we were able to drive and walk to see a great deal of London in just 6 hours. Ryan provided us lots of interesting stories and history with humor. Will use again.

Best tour during a 7 hour layover time period! - First time taking a layover tour and Ryan our tour guide and driver was excellent! He took around London to see and explain all the key sights and added the Churchill Museum and a traditional fish and chip pub stop as well! Highly recommend!

Book this tour with Tony P !!! - Our tour with Tony P was absolutely fantastic! We only had 1.5 days in London and it was the perfect way to absorb so much of this great city. Tony in particular made it so special. His background, knowledge, humor, and suggestions really made this tour great. He also took amazing photos of us at all the hotspots—and sent them the next day. We highly recommend booking and taking in all that London has to offer! Thanks, Tony!!

All the Best of London - We booked a Black Cab Tour for our first day in UK from Heathrow to London. We had a very short 7 hours in London before moving on to Bath and we wanted to see as much as possible. Tom reached out to us the day before for flight info, contacted us upon our landing and was waiting for us at the terminal. He took us around to all the major sites of London and filled us with knowledge along the way. He wa sable to time our day so that we saw changing of the guards at Buckingham Palace and even guided us through the crowds for the best views. Highlights included Tower of London, Westminster Abbey, Big Ben, St Peters, Kensington etc. Tom also took us to some lesser known spots including the Roman Wall, oldest winery and found the best parking spots from which we could explore! Last but certainly not least, Tom took the time to get us back to Heathrow and our car rental safely and on time, all the while answering all of our questions with wit and knowledge. We'd highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting to see London highlights without the hassle of doing it on your own!

Perfect way to spend the day - Had 24 hour layovers in London and decided this would be the best way to spend one day. We hired Paul to show us London and we got our money’s worth. He was a wealth of knowledge. I felt like we saw almost everything we could see in 7 hours and left happy with our choice

Professional, secure, friendly, flexible - Last minute find! I was with 5 other friends and we had an 8.5 hour layover in London. I came across this company, literally less than 12 hours before we would be in town, and they were able to accommodate our group. We spent about 6 hours touring. Our guide, Chris, was super friendly and knowledgeable. One of our friends kept getting sick, and he was super gracious to pull over each time (it was a reaction to meds not because of his driving.) I feel like the price is competitive and the people are super cool. I would definitely do it again.

Always a great time! - We had a wonderful time. Moses did a great job showing us around. He was courteous, on time, and super knowledgeable about the city.

Fantastic Experience - Andy was wonderful. He made sure we got to see and experience the things we wanted to. He even had us pose on Abbey Road doe a picture. It was a really warm day but we made it through. We were picked up at our hotel and delivered to our door which was incredible because we had difficulty getting to places. We recommend this to everyone.
