Once again, I had family members traveling between the USA and the UK on the same day as a truly unique, never to be forgotten event: The funeral for Queen Elizabeth II. Just as Yellow Moon smoothly handled the transfer of family members arriving in the UK on the starting day of the Platinum Jubilee celebration, they once again came through with the seemingly effortless collection and transfer to Heathrow of a family of four headed across the Atlantic. Laura of Yellow Moon could not have been more patient with my endless questions about the arrangements for safely transporting a family consisting of an infant and a toddler.
Laura graciously agreed to my request to ask Steve to drive the family. He had previously transported the family on two occasions. The babies’ parents were so impressed with Steve’s skillful and safe driving as well as his professional demeanor that they asked for him to be their driver. Anytime one is transporting your precious babies between continents, one wants the best driver to drive during the first leg of the trip. Steve is quite simply the best there is!
My amazement at the general level of Yellow Moon’s service and Steve’s in particular is understandable when one considers the circumstances prevailing on September 19th. While the reservation was made well in advance of the Queen’s death, there were the security concerns that arose because of the funeral. For that reason, they had to be promptly collected at 2:00 a.m. in Christchurch, driven safely to Heathrow, and all their luggage (including child safety seats) unloaded in a timely fashion.
Timing was crucial precisely because the air space around Heathrow was closed for a certain amount of time before and during the Queen’s funeral. They simply could not miss their 6:30 a.m. flight to Frankfort, take a later flight, and then be certain that they would be able to make their connecting flight to Detroit.
Steve was promptly at their home at 2:00 a.m. in Christchurch and was as pleasant and helpful as if he were picking them up at 10:00 a.m. His kindness and graciousness are definitely appreciated. Equally appreciated was his skillful and safe driving and expertise in negotiating the area around Heathrow on day when security had to have been heightened. Steve delivered them to Heathrow in good time for going through passenger security.
Yellow Moon always has luxurious cars for its tours and transfers. This car was luxurious, and this family of four including two babies in child safety seats was supremely comfortable. I will be in touch with Laura at Yellow Moon and will request Steve as a driver for airport transfers for any future trips to the UK that my family will be making. They are quite simply the best in their business!

After a hurricane canceled our trip to Florida, we planned a last minute trip to London 24 hours before leaving from the US. I contacted Yellow Moon at midnight and they immediately replied--I knew it would be a long shot getting a private guide with one day's notice, but they were able to work with us and within 12 hours we had traded multiple emails, jumped on a phone call to go over details, and all of a sudden our last minute trip was all planned out! My husband, 11 year old daughter and I had an incredible three days with Yellow Moon. We spent two days with Joe who was fabulous. On our arrival day, we did a foodie tour which was a great way to kick off the trip after an overnight flight. The next day we had full day custom city highlights tour. Joe knew our daughter is a Harry Potter fan and he made sure to point out lots of spots around the city from the movies throughout the day! The third day we were with Justin who was also great! We opted to visit the inside of Westminster Abbey, the Churchill War Rooms and the Tower of London. Justin was super knowledgable about all three. Both Joe and Justin were great with our daughter which is a MUST for a family traveling with kids. I'd highly recommend Yellow Moon-from their immediate response to my last minute request to the perfect execution of exactly what we were looking for. We couldn't have asked for anything more!

Our kids half-day iconic tour with Ollie and driver Ana was outstanding! All of us- especially our 8 and 11 year olds - were mesmerized the entire time. Ollie’s stories and knowledge were made for such an engaging experience. In fact our 8 year old now asks if we have a tour guide for every other London site we visit. Thank you Yellow Moon!

Every time I come to London with someone who has never been here, I book a 4-6 hour tour of the highlights at the beginning of the trip to help them acclimate to all London has to offer as a gift. It’s such a great city with an amazing amount of history, culture and charm.
Larry was our guide on this booking and he set the bar to new heights going forward!
Using his wit and wonderful British humor, my family was thoroughly entertained, informed and enthralled by insightful antidotes that gave my guests a whole different impression of London than if they had tried to do it on their own. One guest even said, “I think I could live here!” afterwards because Larry made the city approachable and easy to navigate. Our driver Andy certainly helped with the later as he put the key landmarks on our tour just steps away at each stop.
I ask my hotel concierge to book this company each trip. We had such a great experience, we booked another tour to Stonehenge the following day with driver Steve and Blue Badge Guide Rosemary which was another memorable bucket list excursion.
My guests will never forget the tours and I will always be grateful for Larry, Andy, Steve and Rosemary’s time during the festive Holiday season!

Larry Mills was our tour guide and he did an amazing job. He went above and beyond to make our first trip to London exceptional. He was extremely knowledgeable of the history of the city and all the historic landmarks and answered every questions we threw at him. I would 10/10 recommend him to anyone that wants a “non-touristy” tour of London.

April 2022 was an exciting time to be in London. Museums and attractions had recently opened up as Covid-19 restrictions were eased. It was our pleasure to see our guides renewing their relationships with museum staff members. Our traveling group of 3 couples relied on Yellow Moon Tours for 4 tours, with 4 different guides. For our first half-day tour, we asked Joe, our guide, to show us some "odd bits" about London, and bring us to the theater district at the end. Very entertaining. Joe has a special interest in Winston Churchill, which we, sadly, did not take advantage of. Maybe next visit. Our second tour guide, Barbara, led us on a motor trip to Canterbury and Dover. Barbara expertly led us through the church, really giving life to the significance of this site. Third tour was another half-day with Corinna, driving to Hampton Court. Corinna has an encyclopedic knowledge of the personalities of the Tudor period. Lastly, our 4th "whirlwind" tour through the British Museum and National Gallery with Richard. His narratives at specific archeological objects and paintings made us wish the tour were more than several hours.

Our tour guide, Joe, and driver, Andy, were wonderful. Joe provided a very engaging and enjoyable nighttime tour experience of infamous places rumored to be haunted, while sharing insights that humanized the experience. We highly recommend Yellow Moon tours. Ask for Joe and Andy!

It was our fist time in London and my husband is a big rock & roll fan. We took a 1/2 day Private Rock N Roll Tour with Ollie and it was amazing! He was so knowledgable and enthusiastic. He played tunes throughout our car ride, showed us the best spots for photos, and had amazing personal stories to tell. Would absolutely recommend him + Yellow Moon Tours!

We requested a tour from our hotel last minute, and Joe and Anna were there to take care of us. Joe’s expertise of the history of London mixed with his quick wit and humor made for a fabulous tour of the city. We hit all of the major sites, and even some tailored to our specific interests. 100% recommend booking a tour with them.

I recently returned from a week long trip to Paris with my wife and two daughters and we had an incredible two days touring with Yellow Moon, specifically with Dawie. We did an "Iconic Tour of Paris", which introduced our girls to all the highlights, and a "Walking Tour of Montmartre", which gave us all an incredible deep dive into that gorgeous neighborhood. Dawie was awesome! He kept our girls entertained and at the same time kept my wife and I engaged. We couldn't have asked for a more high energy, interesting, fun and wonderful two days of touring. I highly recommend Yellow Moon, and Dawie!

Sorry to be so slow. I am only lately really getting into Trip Advisor. We tend to hire a private guide. In our younger years we would take group tours but found that we frequently wound up spending time in places we had no interest in. A private guide is expensive but one can tailor the trip to one's personal interests.
You've probably already been to London. I apologize for my tardiness.

We are a family 5 with three teenagers. If i were to book with you would you be able to get us into the landmarks ahead of the lines?

Hi there!
Yes - depending on the sites we can usually bipass the lines, organise fast track tickets or obtain special access. This is not the case for every single site however - some places we would visit at the quietest time of day. The best thing to do is reach out by email for more details and we can help tailor make a tour for you. :)

Hi! My husband and I are hoping to do a tour to Stonehenge on September 20, 2016 and we are also interested in Glastonbury, Avebury and Salisbury. Do you do these destinations and how much would it cost to do a full day? We understand we may not be able to do all of these. Thank-you.

Hi Laurie,
Thanks for reaching out. We do all of those destinations - but you are right - not in a single day!
The best thing is to drop us an email or use the booking form on our site with as much detail as possible and we will get right back to you. :)

Not cheap, billed in pounds sterling (no symbol on my keybroad), and I didn't even look to see how much the total was in $ (minus 1/2 because we shared it with my brother and his wife), but you are buying a concentrate--after reading much advise about seeing London, I concluded that if we stayed there a week on our own we would not see and hear all that we would in 2 days with a guide and driver--he gushed information constantly and enthusiastically--which was also worth a lot!

Hi looking to book for 2 adults and child during June 9- 12 or so. Want a couple of London highlights. I was born in Kenton and we have been to London many times but our family lives out toward stanmore and harrow. Also looking to explore Wimdsor castle, Stonehenge Cotswolds and perhaps Dover.
