Secret London Private Taxi Tour
Overview
On our private Secret London Taxi Tour, your guide takes care of the planning and leads you beyond the obvious to hidden courtyards, narrow alleyways, ancient churches, timber-framed buildings, forgotten statues, secret gardens and those wonderfully odd corners of London most visitors walk straight past.
There is no fixed route and no pressure to follow a set itinerary. Your guide will shape the tour around you, sharing favourite discoveries and stories gathered from years of knowing London.
Travel in your own modern black taxi, with room for up to six guests and a panoramic glass roof. Stop for photographs, explore on foot when something catches your interest, or simply sit back and enjoy discovering a side of London you may never have found on your own.
What's Included
- When your private tour is finished we can either recommend a drop off point that is in keeping with your themed tour to maximise the sights you see and fun you have that day. Otherwise we would be happy to drop you off anywhere in central London that suits you.
- Your Taxi Tour Guide will pick you up from your London hotel or any other central London location that suits you. We will send you a SMS text to let you know your Taxi Tour Guide has arrived.
- Gratuities
- Food and drinks, unless specified
