Welcome to THE London Sightseeing Tour, featuring numerous halts and ample opportunities for photography.
Our Half Day London Tour (4 hours) commences between 9.00am and 12.00pm.
This unique experience combines taxi rides with short walking tours.
Born and raised here, I am a London tour guide who loves sharing intriguing stories about the various tour sites we’ll visit. My exclusive Highlights Tour provides an unrivaled chance to behold London’s renowned attractions.
We’ll traverse central London in a quintessential London taxi, taking us places that tour buses can’t reach.
These aren’t just fleeting glimpses out of a car window. We make several stops and walk around a bit for a more immersive experience, as I guide you through each location.

Another Amazing Experience!! - I did my first tour with my father back in 2011 and it was an amazing experience. On Sunday just gone my nephew my mate and I did the 5 hour Highlights Tour with Graham another great experience. My only gripe was the five hours was not long enough, the time just flew by!!
Graham is a font of knowledge and answered all our questions. He is what we would say in Ireland "A Sound Man".
Graham keep up the good work and I hope to do another trip with you in the not too distant future.

London Tour 2023 - Patrick was awesome. Took us to all the regular London sights, plus Beatles' sights! My husband is a huge Dr. Who fan! Patrick took us to the last Police Call Box in London. He chatted with us and shared a lot of history and facts. He really made the tour fun and interesting! Looking forward to touring with him next year when we return to London!

A fantastic day of expected and unexpected highlights of London! - Our London Highlights tour was the 2nd day we spent with Graham on our 3 generation family trip. Everything was seamless - communication months in advance, pick-up and drop-off at our Airbnb, flexibility where needed. Graham made sure we saw not only well known places but those charming spots that are not as well known. We were comfortable and happy all day as Graham shared his knowledge and love for all things London! There was a great mix of being in the car and walking/experiencing first hand. Thank you, Graham, we will see you on a future trip and certainly recommend you to others!

A great time. - I highly recommend booking a tour with Graham. We did the London Highlights on our first full day in the city. He was knowledgeable, funny, patient, and accommodating. He’s a great communicator. One member of the tour group uses a rollator and he was able to adapt the tour, as needed, without us missing any of the sights we wanted to see. It was an absolute pleasure.

A grand day out - Graham was accommodating and flexible with his arrangements for our tour. Myself and my party really enjoyed the trip and learned a lot. I appreciated his ability to customise the sights and facts according to the interests of those in the back seat.

Great Tour with Graham - We had the greatest time touring with Graham. Besides seeing all the wonderful sights, we learned a lot about the history of London. I highly recommend this tour, especially if you have any mobility issues. Thanks Graham!

Excellent tour and experience of London - My wife, her friend and I had a wonderful tour with Graham. He picked us up at our hotel at 8:15am in the morning and took us around the main sights of London, dropping us off at Heathrow at 11:15am for our flight home. This was the perfect way to spend a quick stopover in London and I would highly recommend it.
Be sure to book well in advance because the best tour guides get booked out months in advance. Graham is definitely one of these, and is a master of his craft. Graham's knowledge of the buildings and history of London made the tour spectacular. I grew up in the UK and didn't know half the details that Graham was able to share.
Overall it was a wonderful experience and I will definitely plan another tour with Graham next time I am in London. Book his services without hesitation.

Wonderful Tour - We toured with Graham for 2 fully packed days of seeing London. I had a list of things I wanted to see and Graham included every one of them plus so much more. I travel with a rollator walker and Graham took care of getting it in and out of the cab at every place we stopped. He is very knowledgeable about the city and in addition to being a Licensed Black Cab driver he is also a licensed guide at some of the places in London. Black Cab drivers have to go to school for 3 years and learn all about the city in order to work as a Black Cab driver. I wish we had had the time to do some of the other tours he does. Thank you Graham for a wonderful 2 days.

Where did my 3 star review disappear too? - I am curious how my 3 star review was obviously removed. While the tour was GOOD, I had specifically requested to see the entire changing of the guard. However, he was in a hurry so I only saw the parade leading to the change. I felt short changed and I did not accomplish what I came there for. Additionally, he spoke of several areas we were to visit, but he couldn't find a parking space, so we missed out.
