The Best day in London of a super trip. Cannot recommend it enough!! - What a tour, fantastic guide, fantastic company. London Sightseeing Taxi Tours 4.98 out of 5. Tour guide David 5..out of 5. David was a the perfect person, for the perfect tour. Between his knowledge and perfect balance of everything. He is… well, I don’t like to use hyperbole, but in this case it is true. I wish to find a flaw but could not. working class, humble, and.fantastic personality. Right from fist phone call toward entire tour his energy and genuine passion was infectious. Flawless is closest to being what David is. Beatles, Abbey Road, Freddy Mercury, Led zeppelin, he knew it all, with perfect backstories. Excellent guide, excellent company. 4. 98 out of 5. excellent guide and great host for our Beatles Tour. ThAbbey Road experience we will cherish forever. He guided us to the iconic Apple Studio location where the Beatles played on the rooftop. Along the way we saw Sir Paul’s residence, where John Lennon & Yoko lived, Jimmy Hendrix flat, the Gibson Store. David was sure we were able to see all we were interested in around London. He has a great smile and attitude. We highly recommend David. Oh did I mention amazing guitar player. Will miss You David. Now one tiny flaw. The advertisements on the car take away a small part of the tour in my opinion, I know it is small, but when you think black cab you expect black cab. I still will give overall 5 out of 5 car looked good, clean, and tour Guide David was fantastic

Fun filled day celebrating Rock and Roll of the past! - Such a fantastic fun filled day with David! His knowledge of Rock and Roll history was amazing! We laughed, we sang, and we celebrated “Rock and Roll history”. We got some amazing photos. This was truly a private tour for my husband and I and it exceeded our expectations! By the end of the tour, we felt like we had made a new friend! Thank you David for such an amazing experience!

Great rock and roll tour - Great tour of some of the most iconic rock and roll spots in London. Our guide, Anthony, was great and showed us a good time while going through the city. He even added a few spots not on the itinerary. If you want to have a different tour of London try this out.

Best London Tour Guide - Dave was an excellent guide and great host for our Beatles Tour. The Abbey Road experience we will cherish forever. He guided us to the iconic Apple Studio location where the Beatles played on the rooftop. Along the way we saw Sir Paul’s residence, where John Lennon & Yoko lived, Jimmy Hendrix flat, the Gibson store with great history and some guitar playing by the talented Dave. He also took us to Piccadilly, Saint Paul’s Cathedral, Tower of London, Borough Market, Tower Bridge, and China Town. Dave was sure we were able to see all we were interested in around London. He has a great smile and attitude. We highly recommend Dave.
