          GREAT EXPERIENCE
          I hired Gio at private London tours for our family trip to London during Thanksgiving week. My two teenagers (15 and 13), my wife and myself. We did four tours and they were all great. The service from this company is great and Gio was very good at communicating with us at all times. We strayed at the Shangri La at the Shard. All the guides were very knowledgeable and made the tours fun for the whole family. We have traveled much of the world and have taken many tours from different tour companies. I highly recommend this company. Thank you GIO. Armando Hernandez

          The best private tour company I have ever experienced
          I cannot say enough good things about this company!! My family planned a 2 week vacation to Europe and used Gio for half of the trip! That should tell you enough right there. Absolutely the best private tours I have ever been a part of. Gio made this entire experience so incredibly easy and tailored this entire trip to my preference with packing in a lot, but also to where we never felt rushed. We did multiple tours with Gio's company starting with a tour of Windsor to Stonehenge, full day of London highlights, Oxford and Cotswold's day tour, as well as a Paris full day of highlights. On top of this the guides we had were phenomenal. Our guide Joanna in London was stellar all the way from her vast amount of knowledge to her kindness in making our days in London the best. She made London no doubt our favorite and hard to say goodbye. Laruent in Paris was also great and helped us feel like locals instead of tourist. I also can't forget the drivers we had each day that were the best , especially Tanveer. Private driver and a separate private guide was the way to go with no waiting. Everything was so so professional in all aspects and completely custom. I wish I could use Gio's company everywhere I travel. Highly, highly impressed 10/10 would recommend this company!!

          Private corporate event tour at the Science Museum
          Our team and guests had an outstanding experience on a private tour at the Science Museum led by Dr. Aaron Hunter. His deep knowledge and ability to explain complex concepts in an engaging, accessible way were impressive. Aaron’s passion and exceptional presentation skills made the tour both educational and enjoyable, keeping everyone captivated from start to finish. Our group was thrilled with how he brought the exhibits to life, blending expertise with fascinating stories. We highly recommend Dr. Aaron Hunter’s tours for anyone looking for a memorable and insightful experience!

          Perfect time with London Private Tours!
          My wife and I travelled to London for our wedding anniversary and booked both the London highlights private tour and the Cotswolds and Bath private tour. We had a great experience in both tours and we really enjoyed our time with our tour guide Mike. He is very knowledgeable and an overall great person. Very easy going and likable. He made us feel at home from the very beginning. I will certainly be booking another tour in the future with London Private Tours. Great company, very professional!

          Great day in London.
          Highly recommended! My wife and I spent the whole day with Vicky and she was so nice and knowledgeable. Visited Westminster Abbey, the War room and the changing of the guard. Also dealing with Gio to set this up was a seamless experience.

          Stonehenge & Windsor Castle Tour - Wonderful experience
          Gio and his team assembled a well organized and fun tour for group of 6 that included an 8 year old and 10 month old infant. Mark and Cash took great care of us as they took us out to Stonehenge and Windsor Castle for the day. Mark was an amazing guide that was able to adapt to the many needs and interests of our group. With Mark's expertise he was able to make Stonehenge a meaningful visit for us - otherwise I think we would have just thought it was a bunch of rocks. He was incredibly knowledgeable and we enjoyed our time with him. Mark even broke a fingernail retrieving flint for my son to take home from Stonehenge! Everything about the experience was well organized and we will definitely call Gio and Mark the next time we return to London!

          Excellent private boat tour
          We took a private guided boat tour to Greenwich. The experience from booking to finish was excellent. Gio was highly responsive and great to work with. Our guide, Ruth, was simply outstanding. She is highly knowledgeable and connected well with everyone in our family, especially the kids.

          We had an excellent and fun tour of the Tower of London with Chris, a knowledgeable and nice guy with a passion for the city. When I come back next year, I will request Chris again! Gio, the operator, was incredibly great to work with - very communicative, proactive and detail oriented. I will 100% use Private London Tours again!

          Worth it
          Our guide, Angela, and our driver, Shorof, were excellent. We enjoyed our day with them. This service enabled us to see Stonehenge, Windsor Castle, and a bit of Windsor in the approx 8 hours that we had available. They saved us valuable time by picking us up directly from the airport and returning us to our hotel after our day of site seeing. Gio is extremely professional and responsive to communications while setting all this up. Thank you!

          Mark W was our guide and did an outstanding job. Gio at Private London Tours kept us well informed prior to our tour and made sure we had all needed information well in advance. I highly recommend Private London Tours and have them at the top of my list for tour guide services.

          Windsor/Oxford Tour
          We highly recommend Gio and his company. We did a full day tour of Windsor and Oxford with our guide Aaron and he was great. We focused on Harry Potter in Oxford and saw so much. Would definitely do again.

          PH Client Christmas Trip 2023 & France-Monaco 2024 with Grand Prix
          This review has been long overdue. We intended to share our wonderful experience of our Christmas trip to London last December 2023, but time flew by so fast that we forgot to share our thoughts. This year, we decided to travel to Paris and Monaco, and of course, there was no other person to call besides Gio. Here are our thoughts on why we choose Private London Tours: Adaptability: The company is very adaptable to changes, even changes during the tour. Transparency: Gio made us feel secure with his transparency measures, including updated invoices and a secured payment system. Customized Tours: Every tour is crafted based on our needs. For us, we prefer café hopping, sight-seeing, shopping at local shops, and a bit of history. Simply tell Gio what you need. Professional and Fun Team: His team members are professional, fun to be with, and there are no dull moments. Shoutout to the wonderful people we met: Charlotte, Monica, and Sharoff for the December 2023 trip, and Christian, Laurent, the Wine Master, and Sylvie, the Rockstar, for our Paris and Monaco trip. Excellent Communication: Gio communicates well with his clients, makes our requests possible, and understands us so well. Cheers to your wonderful team!!! Cheers to more travels!!!

          Private tour of London
          We did the private walking tour of the Tower of London, St Paul’s Cathedral, and the Churchill War rooms. Gavin was our wonderful leader. We learned so much, rode the tube and a bus, and were introduced to new foods. It was a long day but one I highly recommend especially with Gavin as your guide.

        I cannot say enough wonderful things about my experience with this company. After visiting with several potential guides, Gio made it obvious that his company was the perfect fit! He took the time we had in London and Edinburgh, along with a list of our desired locations to visit and tailored our tour to make the most of every second.
        The guides we met each day were extraordinary. Ron made Westminster Abbey come to life with his wealth of knowledge (even though we were fighting an extreme case of jet lag 🫠), Rowan knew exactly where to place us for the best views of the changing of the guard at Buckingham palace and managed to have my 10 and 5 year old entranced with the Tower of London. The tour even arranged to drop us off at London Stadium to watch the Cardinals v Cubs in the London Series!
        Finally, Sarah made our time in Edinburgh perfection. She is the sweetest, friendliest, and most knowledgeable guide in Scotland. She is our new adopted cousin and we hope to go back to see her soon. My 10 year old daughter says that Sarah was the best part of the trip😍! She tailored the day to meet our every desire, including the Harry Potter fans along the way!
        Thank you all for making our family trip so wonderful and memorable! ❤️

        We utilized the services of Private London Tours for a full three days to visit the key sights while in London. From the beginning, communication was impeccable. Gio, promptly responded to our questions while providing the best solution for us to make the most of our time. At the time we did not know the real gem to the experience would be the tour guide assigned to us for three days, Mike. The knowledge Mike has is unbelievable, and is not limited to the rich history of London. His enthusiasm for his job, and care he gives to his client is one to be admired. We took every suggestion Mike gave us to do after our tour in the evening, and every one of them was amazing.
        As a business owner, I was particularly impressed with how Mike would speak highly of the employer, London Guided Tours, as this was unsolicited praise during normal conversations throughout our time with him. I would without hesitation recommend utilizing the services of Private London Tours. Maybe you will be lucky as we were, and have Mike taking you around during your visit.

        We took the Private Guided and Chauffeured Tour of London yesterday with Harry. We believe a private tour is the best way to experience a city and learn the history and try to take one in every city we visit and Harry provided one of the best tours and gave us wonderful insight into London. We have taken this same tour on prior visits to London with other companies and this was absolutely the best. I selected this tour based upon the other reviews and all the glowing reviews turned out to be true for us. Also Gio is excellent at communication and trying to accommodating the requests of the client.

        We toured / days of our trip- Andy and Charlotte were both amazing. So knowledgeable and fun. They made sure we hit all the highlights we were hoping for and even stopped fir coffees when we needed a boost later in the day. Highly recommend either of them to guide you around all London has to offer! Thank you!

        What a FANTASTIC experience. We did a full day tour including stops at the Tower of London and Westminster. Our driver made sure we saw lots of unique and exciting spots along the way (including seeing some horses for our kiddos) and our guide, Mark, was truly the best. He was exceptionally knowledgable and adaptable, finding ways to entertain the kiddos with historical stories while also keeping all the adults engaged. Truly one of the best tours we've been on. Highly recommend.

        I would highly recommend going with Private London Tours if you are visiting London. Our guide, Mark, was awesome! We toured for a couple days in a row and he built a history on each place we visited to where you could understand how they related to each other. Lots of laughter, knowledge, and memories made! It was so nice to have a vehicle to take you from place to place, tickets pre-purchased for you to avoid some of the lines, and someone to answer any questions you had along the way.

        Easy to deal with and excellent service! Gio, the owner, was easy to work with and set the tours with all of the highlights we wished to see. Our guide Joanna was well versed in history and legends as well as a logistical wiz. We spent 2 full days with her and she was extremely knowledgeable of both history and modern day London . First, we did a day trip to Stonehenge and the Cotswolds and the next day a car tour of London including the Tower of London and Westminster Abbey. A tour with a Blue Badge guide is the best way to gain access, and see all the highlights a tour has to offer . We truly enjoyed our tours and Joanna. Highly recommended!

        We were looking for a very complete tour of London during our stay and we found this one. Our guide Joanna took us by the hand on an excellent personalized tour of the emblematic places in London that we wanted to see and in Spanish!
        It was a great experience from start to finish. I highly recommend the professionalism of Joanna and Luxury Private Tours LLC for their attention and we are looking forward to coming back for more.

        I can't say enough about Gio and Monica - they are both terrific! Gio made the best recommendation for the days / timing of our tours (Best of London and Stonehenge and Windsor Castle tours) based on our travels. Monica was amazing - very knowledgeable and fun. Had 2 great days with her and she kept 2 jet-lagged travelers engaged and learning so much about London!
        I highly recommend Private London Tours and Monica for anyone who wants to tackle London with the guidance of someone enjoyable and knowledgeable!
