London Taxi Tour Details - Private Tour Guide in a London Taxi

Discover London from the back of a black cab on our private London taxi tours.

London’s taxi drivers are the very best in the world. All cab drivers take a test called The Knowledge in which they must memorise every single road within a 6-mile radius of the centre of London and thousands of points of interest. On top of this world-class knowledge of the streets, all our London taxi tour drivers have completed the Museum of London’s tour guiding course on the city’s history and are qualified taxi guides.

We offer several London taxi tour options:

  • 4 Hour Major London Sights Tour – £540
  • 4 Hour Hidden Gems of London Tour – £540
  • 6 Hour Big Sights & Hidden Gems – £675
  • 8 Hour Ultimate London Tour – £800
  • 4 Hour Harry Potter London tour – £555
  • 4 Hour James Bond London tour – £555
  • 4 Hour Beatles or Rock and Roll tour – £555
  • 4 Hour Ted Lasso Tour – £565
  • 6 Hours Layover Tour (From Heathrow) – £750. Not suitable with large bags – check out our Mercedes V-class London layover tours for that.
  • 6 Hours Layover Tour (From Gatwick) £875. Not suitable with large bags – check out our Mercedes V-class London layover tours for that.

All prices are for 2 people. The price is £25 per extra person with a maximum group size of 6 people.

All tours are led by a driver-guide (1 person) in an electric cab, wheelchair accessible (with ramp) with a panoramic glass sun roof so you can see the sights above you as well as beside you. Contact us to book!

Please note that taxi driver-guides cannot guide inside London’s sights. For guided tours inside the sights with a licensed tour guide plus a driver in our Mercedes V Class vehicles, check out our private London car tours, London highlights tour, or check out all our tours here.

Departure & Return Location

Flexible. London tours generally start at your hotel or apartment in central London. We can also pick up at hotels, restaurants, airports, train stations and other locations.

Departure Time

We’re flexible. Let us know when you’d like the tour.

Price Includes

  • Qualified London Taxi Driver-Guide
  • Private electric taxi with panoramic glass roof
  • All Applicable Taxes and Fees

Price Excludes

  • Lunch
  • Gratuities
  • Admission into any sights (not possible on this tour)

Can I bring luggage?

Not on our taxi tours – London taxis are not designed with long distances in mind. 1-2 pieces of hand luggage should be fine on a taxi tour, but no more.

If you’ll have luggage, opt for our private London car tours instead which use larger Mercedes V-Class vehicles.

Languages

Our London taxi tours are available in English only. For tours in other languages, please book our private London car tours.

Jo was our tour guide for three different tours (Hampton Court, The Tower of London, and Westminster Abbey). We enjoyed all of the tours, and definitely learned/noticed things we would not have if we had done these on our own. Jo was an excellent tour guide — very knowledgeable and easy going. We unreservedly recommend London Private Tours, and Jo, in particular.

Joanna was a delightful tour guide. Extremely knowledgeable and was able to tie what we were seeing with our interests. The car was comfortable and everything was top notch. Would recommend Private London Tours and Joanna to anyone.

Chris was our tour guide when we visited Hampton Court, and he was fantastic. His knowledge went far beyond the parts of the palace you normally see, he knew the stories, history, and fascinating details about areas most visitors would never even know about. He made Hampton Court come alive for us and turned a great visit into a truly memorable experience. Highly recommended!

Highly recommend London Private Tours - was wonderful from the planning to the execution and so many happy wonderful memories. Guide had wit and geared it to the 5 tween/teens and also answered our more in-depth questions too from Westminster Church to the Tower and tied in everything so well. Private, geared to our group interest and ages, and even gramma kept up as we walked and then cooled off in bus and then walked and cooled off again in bus on way back to hotel.

Great experience seeing several sights in depth, up close and personal. Gio was very helpful planning our day in advance. Our guide Charlotte was amazing - very knowledgeable and attuned to my special mobility needs. We got to see so much more than we would have managed on our own. Highly recommend!!

As I was searching for a private tour guide in London that included car service, I came across Private London Tours. From the very beginning, Gio made the experience feel personal, and communication was always easy and responsive. It felt like working with a family-run business rather than a large corporate company. He patiently answered all of my questions, and I knew we had chosen the right company. Our group consisted of nine people, ranging from children as young as 8 years old to older adults. The tour was thoughtfully planned to match our group’s pace, making sure everyone was comfortable with the walking between sites. We were fortunate to have Catherine R. as our guide, and she was absolutely wonderful. She took us to every place on our must-see list, and we were able to check off everything we had hoped to experience. Her knowledge of London was incredible, and she brought the city’s history to life with fascinating stories. She also made the tour especially memorable for the kids by sharing fun and engaging stories that kept them interested throughout the day. If you’re looking for a personalized, stress-free way to explore London, I highly recommend Private London Tours. Their excellent communication, flexibility, and outstanding service made this one of the highlights of our trip.

Geo was responsive and I always appreciate that! He helped us set up exactly what we wanted. Charlotte was our guide and she was amazing as well! She made sure our day was spent as we wished. We chose where we went and how long we stayed. I loved that she asked what type of information we wanted wanted to hear - history, facts, fun stories - at each location. It was just a fantastic day!!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Our family had an outstanding experience with London Private Tours, and Dani was an exceptional guide from start to finish. She was warm, welcoming, incredibly knowledgeable, and went out of her way to make sure everyone in our group—including our young children—had a fantastic time. Dani’s passion for London was evident in every stop along the tour. She shared fascinating history, pointed out details we never would have noticed on our own, and tailored the experience to our interests and pace. She was patient, accommodating, and made the entire morning feel effortless and enjoyable. Without question, our tour with Dani was one of the highlights of our time in London. She didn’t just show us the city—she helped us experience it in a way we’ll always remember. We can’t recommend London Private Tours highly enough, and if you’re lucky enough to have Dani as your guide, you’re in for a truly memorable day.

I booked two London tours with Private London Tours - one of the Tower of London and one full day tour that included a visit to Westminster Abbey and a private VIP tour inside the Churchill War Rooms. Both tours were fabulous! Our guides were extremely knowledgeable and shared fun facts for both adults and kids. The war rooms are a definite must! I can't recommend this company enough.
