        Chris was so friendly and knowledgeable. We didn't have much time in London and Chris did an excellent job of hitting on all of the places we wanted to see. It was unforgettable and we highly recommend it!

        A Private Tour of London with Steve "DeNiro"
        Our tourguide Steve "DeNiro" (pseudonym because of his great DeNiro impression) was fantastic. Funny, approachable, flexible and very respectful. The four of us had a great time seeing all the big sights including a stop at Abbey Road for a photo shoot! Bravo, Steve.

        History to Harry Potter - Paul has you covered!
        The perfect way to see London for the first time when you are time poor. Our driver Paul was incredibly knowledgeable and entertaining - from history to Harry Potter, he had us all thoroughly entertained and educated. Thank Paul!

        It was absolutely the best tour that I've ever been on. Out guide, John, was very knowledgeable, very friendly and explained so much of London's history. I definitely have to make a return trip to London, and I definitely recommend this tour service!

        The tour and sights were amazing. This was my wife's first visit to London and the Black Cab Heritage tours, especially our driver Ricky, made the journey an experience of a lifetime. We'll be sure to tell all our friends as well! Thank you again, Ricky Paul and Beverly, USA

        Classic 4 hour London Tour
        Steve Deniro was our driver this am... took us places we wanted to go and places we didn't know we could or would see! Took gobs of pictures for us and told us much about the history of places we stopped at and/or drove past. Saturday traffic very heavy with numerous POLICE manned road closures, However we still got the full experience. We really enjoyed our morning and thanks to Steve for making it extra special. We are from Surprise Arizona USA.

        Our driver Craig was phenomenal! He took us to all the major points of interest but truly customized the experience so we interacted with locals while learning about historical areas. It was a great way to begin our trip. Highly recommend!

        Wonderful Tour of London
        We had an excellent tour! Our guide Jeremy was very knowledgeable with a wealth of information to share. He was careful as a driver and was always watching out for us if we needed to cross streets. We never expected to see as many London highlights as we did! His timing of our arrival to hear Big Ben's chimes was perfect. Thanks for a wonderful experience!

        We were totally pleased with our private taxi tour. Our guide and driver, Graham, did a great job.He asked what we desired to see, then went to great efforts to comply with our requests, even though our requests were not normal tourist sites. It demonstrated his willingness and ability to comply with our requests. The entire time he had a delightfull disposition and shared a wealth of information. He was remarkable.

        4-Hr Black Cab Heritage Tour
        The 4-hour Black Cab Heritage Tour is an absolutely first-rate experience. Well done! We learned so much. Our driver - Tom M. - was witty, engaging and always interesting explaining the history of sites around London. For a city that has a long and colorful history, we learned and saw so much. It was certainly worthwhile and I'd encourage anyone to give it a try. If we had the time this visit, I'd do it again to see different places with Tom as our guide. His electric black cab was clean and easy to get in/out. We never felt rushed too. Tom always ensured our safety despite 5pm London traffic. He and made several stops along the tour where we could all walk to specific sites and learn the history and importance. Easy to book as well. Absolutely 5-stars...more if they'd allow it.

      The tour was fun and informative. It covered a lot of ground. I don't know that it was scary, but I found that to be much better than a tour that might try to artificially scare you with fake gimmicks.

      My husband and I were looking for a different kind of ghost tour--one that would be tailored to our interests and that of our boys. Moreover, after a day of sightseeing with our 11-year-olds, we knew we’d be spent and would want to be chauffeured. Lo and behold, we found Viator’s the Horror of Haunted London - Mostly Ghostly! (Private Tour) by Black Cab Heritage Tours. Our guide Antony (with no H) was the perfect ending to our day. Not only was he enthusiastic, funny, and down-to-earth but also understanding and accommodating to the needs of our ASD child. Antony created a bespoke experience like no ghost tour we’ve ever had. We were taken back in time to Medieval, Elizabethan, and Victorian England in just 3 hours. This was no memorized skit recited to us like many a guided tour. This is the kind of excursion where we felt the history and energy of the places we visited. We highly recommend this tour and Antony (best guide we’ve had). We hope to see you again. Thank you!

      Mick is fun, entertaining, and very knowledgeable about all corners of the city. We had our two daughters (10 and 12 years old) with us and he kept them interested and engaged the entire time. You will get the insider’s stories of London and hit historically important spots you likely weren’t even aware of. Highly recommended.

      What a fantastic and enlightening tour. Not only were the stories interesting but the sheer enthusiasm and gusto in which the guide told them had me and my friends transfixed and completely drawn in.
      The guide appeared to know his stuff and easily answered any questions we had.
      We all felt comfortable as the tour guide was very friendly and would constantly tell us about any building/street of importance as we drove from place to place.
      If you like goulash horrible history, this is a tour for you.
