Simon (our guide) was simply perfect. The type of tour you hope you’ll get but don’t expect. He knew the best places to go and get pics. Had insight into all the different parts of the city. He made our trip truly memorable. Absolutely the highlight of a week in London.

We're 2 couples on our first trip to London. We took this tour on our first day in London. In three hours, we saw just about every landmark on our list. A great way to orient ourselves so that we could go back and visit some of those places to explore more fully. Simon was awesome. Knowledgeable, funny and a true pleasure for the morning. Thank you, Simon

I did the tour with my husband and 12 year old daughter and we had the most terrific guide Simon. He showed us all the main sights and shared so much knowledge with us. It was entertaining and fun and we went at a great pace. We saw so much. And Simon took lots of photos for us, and it was such a nice treat to have family photos with us all in it. Such a fun experience. Simon was recommended to me by a friend who did his tour and in turn I will be recommending Simon to others I know visiting London.

Simon was an enthusiastic and informative tour guide. He lead us to important landmarks and told us facts that we would have never known without going on the tour. My family and I went to interesting destinations such as Big Ben, a spray painting tunnel, castles, cathedrals and more.

My wife and I visited London for our babymoon and decided to book a private cab tour to help us get the lay of the land. Simon was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and accommodating. He tailored the tour to show us as much as possible, including the iconic landmarks. He gave a lot of history along the way and took a ton of great pictures for us. Absolutely 10/10 - thank you Simon for an amazing experience!

Stephen was absolutely excellent on our tour of London. He took my son and me all around the best sights, sharing interesting information about London and its history. He was particularly great with my 9 year old son, sharing facts that kept him interested throughout the tour. We will definitely use Stephen again upon our return to the UK, and would recommend to our friends and family.

We had a wonderful time with Simon on this tour! It was the perfect way to start our trip to the UK. He knew all the places to go and took amazing photos of us at each sight. Big bonus was seeing Queen Camilla coming from St. James’s palace in her car (thanks to Simon knowing from the activity at the gate that we should wait). WOW. I can’t recommend this tour enough. At the end, Simon dropped us near a marvelous fish & chips restaurant, which was one of our favorite London meals. Can’t wait to return and do it all over again.

So much fun! Simon was amazing! He took us to so many places and the 3 hrs just flew by. We have teenagers and a 9 year old and everyone agreed this was the best tour we took! He took fabulous pictures of the whole family at each stop for us so no one was left out. Now we have beautiful family photos also. I should have booked another day with him. Now I know for next time!
