Hi, I'm Ray! My tours offer a fun and relaxed style of bespoke and unique content. I am flexible to accommodate any of your interests and cultural insights. The best way to describe my tours is that I will "hold your hand" for the day, have unlimited photo opportunities and show you those unique and interesting places that only a London Taxi Driver will know. We will drive, walk, laugh and learn. My highest achievement is being a proud father of 4, following that I have been a licensed London Black Taxi Driver since completing the London knowledge in 1987. I studied the knowledge whilst working as a Printer in Fleet Street (home of London's newspaper industry) during the '80s. More recently in 2016, I qualified as a Taxi Guide with the Worshipful Company of Hackney Carriage Drivers, studying at the City of London Museum. I was made in London, and have remained a resident Londoner. I love to share my knowledge and passion for this beautiful city that I call home. I have so much to share with you - stories and sites from Roman remain to the current day. I have travelled extensively across the world touring South East Asia, China, Australia, South Pacific, East to West coast across North America, and Europe. As an extensive traveller myself, I feel that I can provide what tourists would be looking for in their experience visiting London. Licensed London Taxi Driver since 1987, license originally issued my the Metropolitan Police of London. Qualified Taxi Guide, issued by the Worshipful Company of Hackney Carriage Drivers.

    Raymond did a terrific job. From picking us up on time to delivering us right to our hotel in London. The ride was filled with British History and explanations of the political system and the Monarchy. His tour of Windsor and the castle was great. He knew where to park so baggage would be safe and knew the Castle backwards and forwards. We lucked into a ceremony that...

    Thank you so much for your kind words. It was a real pleasure spending the day with you. I’m so glad you enjoyed the journey and your visit to Windsor. We were incredibly lucky to witness such a special moment with King Charles, and I’m thrilled I could help make the experience even more memorable. Thank you again for choosing to travel with me. I hope to see you all...

    Raymond was great looking after our guests on the tour of Windsor. He went above and beyond and they all had a great time even in the British weather! Would recommend him!

    We have visited London many times because both of our kids picked England to study abroad and Ray has been the best tour guide. He picked us up from the airport to visit Windsor and Runnymede. It was not our first time in Windsor but Ray managed to teach us new information. He was so efficient with our time and knowledgeable. Thank you for making our holiday trip so...
