Great guide, comfortable taxis. It was a great experience to explore London through history taxi tour!

Our guide, Billy, picked us up at the appointed hour and filled the next 4.5 hours with so much history and fun-filled facts. His knowledge was amazing. His taxi was immaculate and extremely comfortable. Beyond the usual facts you might expect to hear, Billy added so much detail that the history became alive. We especially appreciated that he modified the tour to fit our interests rather than giving us a pre-planned approach. His kindness in accommodating my somewhat limited walking abilities was greatly appreciated. Fun, relaxing, informative and worth every penny (or pence). Don't miss out on this very special experience when in London. Billy is an amazing tour guide!!

Wish we could leave Billy 10 stars! Best tour experience EVER! He picked us up from our flat and worked with us directly to choose the best time. He included water, a comfortable, beautiful car, safe, efficient driving, and tips to see things we never would have seen without him. Before we even paid for the trip, he reached out and made me feel like my whole family would be taken care of. I wish we could have taken Billy with us on our whole European vacation. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We saw all the sights plus some unusual and more quirky places. A great tour! A good coffee stop and interesting commentary.

An amazing service from start to finish. From the moment Martin arrived at our door until our return we were treated to a unique experience. Even though we live in London Martin provided insights into the city of London that were new to us. He was so informative about the history, however at the same time was able to communicate in a way that engaged us all (this included two teenagers!). I would totally recommend this tour for anyone wanting to see the sights of London but also learn about the history behind them. The tour is based around your requests so it is bespoke to your needs. Thank you Martin for enabling my son to have a wonderful Birthday during lockdown.

If you want to find out about London's history whilst being in a safe and comfortable environment. Then a tour with Billy is what you need. His professionalism and knowledge is first rate. His manner friendly and warm. Every care was taken to ensure a safe, clean taxi. Wiping down before during and after the tour.

Billy arrived promptly and our amazing day out had started. Throughout the journey Billy was a mine of very interesting information. We stopped often and learnt so much, even though we are both Londoners. A brilliant day out - if you are thinking about doing this tour go ahead and book it - you can’t help but have a wonderful day out.
