Glen Fitzgerald was our driver and tour guide. He made the entire excursion very special! He was extremely knowledgeable, engaging, and accommodating. We enjoyed the entire trip. It would be very difficult to pick out one or two things.

My family and I were staying over in London for a day, after a cruise, before we returned home to the states. We had never been to London and wanted to do "London in a day" if you will. We knew getting an in depth view of the city was not possible with just a day, but we wanted to absorb as much as we could. This tour went a above and beyond our expectations! Our tour guide Glen was incredible! He started out by finding out what we had already seen earlier in the day and then customized the tour based on a rolling assessment of what we were interested in seeing. We were on the "Royal London" tour, so we definitely took in all the royal sites in central London. He gave a great background into each site, and gave us plenty of time for photos and walking around at each site. He even took photos of the family, so that we could all be in the pictures for those great memories. As the tour progressed, he added in other London sites that he felt we would be interested in, including the Westminster Cathedral and Shakespeare's Globe Theater. All in all, it was much more than we could have hoped for, given our time constraints. Glen definitely went above and beyond. I would highly recommend this tour for those that want a great overview of the Royal sites of central London!!

The Driver/guide was exceptional, he had a detailed knowledge of the history and customs of London. He was able to keep up a continuous running commentary which was informative, fun and educational. The adults in the group had a great time, the children an even better one. This trip exceeded my expectations, I'm booking another one immediately. My grandkids haven't stopped talking about it, not once during the three hour trip did their phones come out, they were enthralled by the sights and continuous questions, explanations and fun. The whole event was Covid compliant, and a great end to a difficult year, Thank you

Our experience with London Taxiis beyond words. Stella our guide was patient and super knowledgeable about English history. We were happy with our tour and would recommend especially if Stella is your guide.

We had the most amazing experience with Cheryl and Alan. I traveled with 3 young children and we spent a total of 8 hours in beautiful London and we left with the most impressive memories. Cheryl was so responsive and flexible and trustworthy, was able to customize and personalize the tour to fit the interest of my little ones. Alan came to the appointment early as we landed before schedule and entertained the children while showing us magnificent sites. We were able to fully enjoy and relax under beautiful weather and Alan was so helpful and resourceful and patient with the children. He took us to all the sites on our list and more. We took hundreds of pictures and really have a life lasting memory of this day. We are so grateful and appreciative of all the work Cheryl and Alan have put into creating the best experience for us.
