ENQUIRE NOW

Exploring London's Rich Heritage

Experience the rich history and famous sites of central London with my classic Black Cab tour. Travel back in time and allow me to lead you on an unparalleled adventure. Symbolizing London’s heritage, my electric London taxi is the ideal means of exploring its legendary streets.

Learn the fascinating history of the monarchy back to 1066 as we admire the Tower of London and Buckingham Palace. Understand British political origins and developments whilst taking in the sights of the Houses of Parliament and Big Ben.

Just next door, appreciate the links between politics and the monarchy as we explore Westminster Abbey and then compare its beautiful architecture to that of St. Paul’s Cathedral where we will also visit.

Every building has a story to tell!

My extensive knowledge of history will fascinate you with tales of monarchs, poets, and revolutionaries as we meander through the busy streets, bringing London’s past to life.

Even the modern buildings have contributed to the story of London. I have witnessed most of them being built, and was even involved in some myself (I was a bricklayer before becoming a London Cabbie!)

Whether you’re interested in history or just want to feel what London is all about, my classic Black Cab tour is an engaging way to learn about the city’s rich past. My routes are planned to optimise viewing and photographic opportunities whether on the move, stationary or walking around the sights.

Hidden gems and off-the-beaten-path locations

Even though the main London Landmarks are the focal point of many Black Cab tours of London the city also boasts numerous lesser-known hidden treasures and attractions that I can help you discover. An example is Leadenhall Market, a stunning Victorian market nestled in the heart of the City of London.

The market dates back to 1321 and sits in what was once the Roman centre of London. A meat, poultry and game market, today its vibrant architecture is home to colorful shops and unique eateries.

Leadenhall Market was also a filming location for the first Harry Potter movie! It featured as the entrance to the Leaky Cauldron where Harry Potter and Hagrid enter and make their way to Diagon Alley!

Why choose a Black Cab tour for exploring London's heritage?

Choosing a London Black Cab tour to explore the city’s history offers a far better experience over a bus or walking tour. You don’t need to keep an eye on transportation timetables such as bus and tube or walk long hours covering distances among the crowds trying to hear the guide narrate.

My electric (zero emission capable) London Black Cab is the perfect setting for direct interaction with me and allows you to customise your itinerary based on what interests you, be it centered around historical sites, cultural hubs, music, movie locations or even culinary hotspots.

This enables you to spend more time visiting the things that intrigue you while skipping over those that do not, ensuring a more personalised adventure.
