Overview of London with a wealth of knowledge. - Excellent overview of London.
Peter is a fount of knowledge and since he understands that there’s so much to take in, he provides links to every place we saw so that when we are more relaxed and want to go over our trip, we can learn more about the history behind each sight. I’ve never experienced a guide who has been so prepared and has taken the time to provide a wealth of background information!
Definitely ask for Peter Mulcahy.
You will be happy you did

London Tour - Peter was outstanding. His knowledge of history was astonishing. He asked us questions before the tour and created a tour specific to our nationalities and likes. Probably the best tour guide we have ever had. Highly recommend Peter.

Fantastic way to experience the city! - Peter jam packed the tour with hidden secret gems that we would never have found on our own, like Walter Raleigh’s tomb! It was an enjoyable way of seeing a lot in a short space of time, perfect for anyone on a day trip who wants to see everything without the hassle of public transport. He also very kindly sent links to everywhere we had been afterwards so we could read up on it. Would recommend 100%! Thanks Peter x

Peter the Great! - I can’t say enough great things about Peter and this tour. He customized a very special tour for us based on what my teens liked. My daughter is a Swifty and also loves history. It was a perfect tour for her!
We took so many photos and Peter took so many great ones. He sent us photos and links to information about what we saw. What an amazing day. Highly recommend!

Must do for tourist as well as Londoners who want to learn more about our great city. - Peter is amazing and his depth and breadth of knowledge across the history of London and the people who have inhabited London be they in politics, commerce, music, you name it is hard to comprehend.

Great experience - We went on a tour twice with Mr. Mulcahy, and the experience was amazing. He is very informative and showed our daughter a lot of historic places that many tour guides will not cover. He also took us to the airport and pointed out different important places throughout the trip. He kept us learning the whole time, and as he says, we didn’t waste a minute! If you are coming to London, and you want somebody to guide your journey, he is the man!
Punctual, clean cab, funny, water on board, umbrellas, you name it.

Peter’s knowledge is extensive - Peter has a unique perspective on London. His extensive knowledge is great for tailored tours so whether you’re keen on history, music, the military or some other unique aspect - Peter is your go to guide. We found him very accommodating and full of energy and passion for London. The cab is great for helping you cover significant ground in the allocated time and we had lots of opportunities to jump out and see key sights and take pictures.

An Amazing Day in London - We had a wonderful tour with Peter! My daughter and I are Swifties, and Peter did not disappoint. We visited so many places that Taylor frequents when in London and places that inspired her songs. We also visited many places that have a special place in music history. Thanks Peter for an unforgettable day! See you on our next trip to London.
