Welcome to London – your unforgettable adventure starts here! Hello, I’m David – a born-and-bred Londoner with a passion for history, storytelling, and showing visitors the very best of this extraordinary city and country. After 19 years driving one of London’s iconic black taxis, I became a qualified tour guide in 2013 through the prestigious Worshipful Company of Hackney Carriage Drivers (accredited by City University). Since then, I’ve been guiding guests from around the world through the streets of London and beyond, sharing over 2,000 years of fascinating history, culture, and hidden gems. My tours are conducted in a luxury Audi A8 long wheelbase sedan, offering up to 4 guests a smooth and spacious ride with full air-conditioned comfort – a step up from the usual taxi or tour bus. Whether you're looking to see London’s must-see sights or venture into its lesser-known corners, I’ll tailor your experience to suit your interests. I also offer full-day excursions beyond the capital to iconic destinations like Stonehenge and Bath, Oxford and Blenheim Palace, the Cotswolds, and many more. I pride myself on delivering friendly, informative, and flexible tours that feel more like a day out with a knowledgeable local than a standard sightseeing trip. Take a look through my tour listings – there’s something for everyone. And if you don’t see exactly what you’re looking for, just get in touch. I’ll be happy to design a custom tour just for you.

Overview of your Southampton tour

This shore excursion from Southampton visits the World Heritage site of Stonehenge. See and hear about the stone circle that has stood here for over 4, 500 years. Some of these stone weighs over 35 tonnes and were all brought here from the Marlborough Downs under manpower alone. This site is still very much a mystery that attracts visitors from all over the world. It is certainly a good one to tick off your list. From Stonehenge, we head into the medieval town of Winchester. Once the capital of England. Winchester Cathedral is the resting place of one of Britain's greatest authors, Jane Austen. When Jane Austen became ill she came to Winchester for medical attention and lived the last 6 weeks of her life here. While you are in the cathedral I will tell you about the amazing story of William Walker, the man that saved Winchester Cathedral. The small city of Winchester is also an interesting place for a walk around and offers good shopping and plenty of places for lunch.

Your Southampton tour itinerary

I will meet and greet you in the arrivals hall at Southampton Dock. We will travel to Stonehenge where we will visit the exhibition before going down to the stone circle. We will then travel to Winchester where we will visit the cathedral and then have a short walk around the town. Lunch can either be in Winchester or we can find a country pub. Return to Southampton.
