How would you like to take a trip in my time machine!? Would you like to see two thousand years of history of London from the Romans right up to the present day? I can show you around this amazing city that I was born and brought up in. You will hear about poets and playwrights, Lords and Ladies, politicians and Prime Ministers, Princes, Princesses, Kings and Queens, some with their heads and some without their heads. . . all of this is possible, and so much more! If you're interested in the history of Rock'n'Roll in London, why not go back to the Swinging Sixties with me, and then on to the seventies, eighties or nineties, and back to the present day? The vehicle I use to take my guests on a time-travelling journey is actually a London black cab. These iconic taxis are loved and trusted by London's travelling public and are regularly voted the best in the world. They are a great way of seeing the sights, and are air-conditioned with plenty of leg room. They are also wheelchair-accessible. I have been a London taxi driver since 2006 and a qualified Tour Guide since 2011 - just in time for the London Olympics of 2012, which was a magical time for all of us that experienced it. I love my hometown of London dearly, and nothing gives me more pleasure than to show visitors around what is arguably the world's greatest capital city! But my knowledge of history isn't bound by the borders of London, not by a long stretch. I have been taking my guests for many years to wonderful places such as Oxford, Salisbury, Stonehenge, Bath and the Cotswolds - an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, if ever there was one! You can see all of this and more - all from the comfort of an iconic London taxi, driven by a knowledgeable, experienced, affable and personable driver - yours truly! I look forward to seeing you!

After picking you up from a central London location in my licenced London Black Cab, I'll drive you to the London areas of Richmond and Notting Hill. We will stop at all the familiar Ted locations, with plenty of time for you to take pictures and even a bit of lunch in the famous pub. Locations incude: Ted's flat. The Coach and Horses pub. Ted's walk to work. The dentist hunt. The sewer drive. Roy and Keeley's first date - the 'Love Actually' scene! Their many favourite restaurants. And many more! Please note: The AFC Richmond football ground is the home of Crystal Palace FC, which is a long way from Richmond and is not included in this 5 hour tour. Ask me for details. At the end of the tour, I will drop you back in a central London location of your choice.
