So you have searched for London tours and come across my page, well hopefully you will find everything you could ever need with regards London right here, whether you want a full day, half day, a Heathrow transfer and tour before checking in to your hotel or vacation residence, time in London between flights, a little bit of Harry Potter, or the 'terrible Tudors'. My aim is to really give you what you want, to tailor it to your wishes, not just another run of the mill scheduled tour, London Tours in my iconic London Taxi is what I do and what I love. Here's a little more information about myself. I'm a born and bred Londoner and have lived and worked within this great city for the majority of my life (the exception being a 4-year stint in Switzerland). Previously working within Royal Mail, followed by the Global Foreign Exchange Markets. I am now a fully qualified London 'Cabbie', qualified taxi guide, and offer private and personal tours of London and beyond in an ICONIC London black cab (not just any London Black Cab but the new Zero Emission Capable Electric Cab), neither of which I ever thought I would be doing, but I can wholeheartedly say two of the best decisions I have possibly made in my working life. Firstly becoming a 'London Cabbie' gave me the new challenge and freedom I needed and then from there getting involved in offering tours, I honestly fell in love with my hometown again whilst doing the knowledge, and showing the sights of this fantastic city and creating wonderful memories on my tours is hard to beat. My aim is to give YOU the tour that YOU want when YOU want, always keeping in mind that it is YOUR vacation and YOUR memories, and to show you the history of London, both the famous and lesser-known sites in a fun and relaxed manner. Please take your time looking at what is available in the tour section, but always remembering that my aim is to tailor each tour to YOUR own needs and requests. Remember it's . . . YOUR time, YOUR tour, YOUR memories! Licensed London Taxi Driver, having completed "The Knowledge of London" Qualified London Taxi Guide (accredited by the City University) I do not hold a Blue Badge so sadly I cannot guide inside these historical sites.

WOW!! When you arrive at Heathrow hours before you can check in to your hotel and have travelled over 10 hours to get there, there’s nothing better than having Paul waiting at the airport for you!! His communication with us was fabulous and we were quickly in the back of his very comfortable iconic black taxi. It’s very roomy and he gave us a stellar tour of London. He often stayed with our luggage while we popped out and saw Buckingham Palace, Eton and so many more sites. It felt like an incredible value to get all of that and then be dropped off at our hotel. We did 2 other tours with Paul as well and both were incredible too. Thanks so much, Paul!! You made our time in London beyond special!!

Paul was absolutely wonderful to pick us up and introduce us to London—even though he was dealing with very tired travelers. Very accommodating and knowledgeable. We enjoyed our morning leading up to our drop off to our hotel.

Paul was amazing. Our flight was delayed so we missed our connecting flight and ended up arriving 4 hours later. He monitored our flights and was there waiting on us with a sign. We enjoyed the cab with the glass roof so we could see the highlights on our way to the hotel. We were able to drop off our luggage and then continued our tour and he took us to Tower of London where we had purchased tickets before our arrival. I totally recommend him for the transfer and tours.

Paul was amazing! He provided great communication prior to arrival. He was at the arrivals hall as soon as we exited customs. We had a wonderful tour around parts we have never seen and time for a lovely stroll down Portobello Road and around Kensington Gardens. Highly recommend Paul!

I recommend this tour to anyone arriving in London after an overnight flight. It was great to be met and given a tour of London without having to do a lot of thinking with a jet lagged brain. Paul was an engaging guide, willing to tailor the tour to our interests and sympathetic to our fatigue. We were dropped off at our hotel, ready to check on, get some lunch and a second wind.
