Californians who loved the London lights tour! - The tour was fantastic, we were able to see all of the major areas with holiday decorations and lights. It met all expectations and we took many photos! Also, Paula was a great and knowledgeable guide, we appreciated her expertise and she answered our many questions about London. The bonus is that she did show us a few places that we would never find or know about and this included the associated stories and history. We were grateful that she was able to spend her weekend night taking us around London - and it was right before Christmas. We would love to have Paula take us around again the next time we are in town. We had a great time with her!

Great Chistmas lights tour - The Christmas-lights tour was with driver Paula Pickin. She was the perfect guide, chatting along the way and giving us interesting details about places of interest. She took us to places where we wouldn't have gone ourselves. Altough the weather wasn't very cooperative there were plenty of opportunity's to take pictures of the lights on display. I you have the opportunity to do this tour, we would recommend booking with Black Taxi Tour London!

Must do - I had a long layover in London and this was a great way to tour the city and its creative Christmas decoration. My driver was Paul and he was fantastic. He knew so much about the city and really customized my trip to my interests. Definitely will use this company for other private trips during my next visit.

The Best Christmas Gift! - Richard was the best! He knew where all the lights were and gave us background history for some of the areas and buildings. He was encouraging and took pictures of our family for us. It really was the highlight of our London Christmas trip!

Spectacular Xmas Lights Tour - We had the best experience with Black Taxi Tour London for our Xmas lights tour. From the start, Angela was super-efficient and helpful. Our flight was delayed in Frankfurt for 8 hours which would mean we would miss our tour, but Angela responded promptly to my email on a Saturday and managed to change the tour for us. Tom, our driver/ tour guide was wonderful. Just loved spending the evening with him and he managed to stop in the busiest spots in peak Xmas time for us to get great photos. He took beautiful photos of our family which he sent to us later, so that we wouldn't have to bother with it ourselves. The lights themselves were magical and for us Australians, who were experiencing a Northern hemisphere Xmas for the first time, it was truly magical. I can't recommend this tour company highly enough and will definitely be booking with them again. Thanks Angela and Tom!

Last minute family Christmas splurge! - We thoroughly enjoyed our Christmas lights tour of London. The lights were amazing and all the rest of the sights in between were a bonus. Our driver, Paula was very knowledgeable and a pleasure to chat with along the way. She happily helped us with pictures of our group and was an absolute star getting us home. This was a family Christmas splurge and well worth every penny.

Christmas Lights Tour - Amazing!!!! - So lucky to have Steve take us on an amazing night tour featuring the Christmas lights and so many other places of interest. We knew from the first minute of meeting Steve it would be an evening to remember - an absolute wealth of knowledge and so warm and friendly. He was able to skilfully include suggestions we had along the way and best of all the many stops we made to not only take photos but to also walk around and immerse ourselves in the local nightlife and culture. It was an absolutely superb experience for my daughter and I, we cannot recommend this company highly enough!!! A special mention to Angela also for assisting us in arranging the tour. We had late changes to our plans but this was handled in such a friendly and reassuring way it clearly demonstrates their professionalism and integrity. Thanks again Black Taxi Tour London, you’re the best!!!!!

Amazing Christmas Lights Tour with Stella! - My daughter and I took a lost minute trip to London during Thanksgiving break 2022. The best part of our trip was the Private Black Taxi Tour London Christmas Lights tour with Stella! Stella arrived early to pick us up from the Conrad. Stella was so friendly and welcoming! I wasn't exactly sure what to expect when booking this. My family loves Christmas lights, so we were definitely up for trying it out. This tour exceeded our expectations by far! Stella not only picked us up from and dropped us back off at our hotel, she also drove us around different areas, parked the car and took us to tour by foot, and because she is a certified tour guide, she included different tidbits as we were driving and walking. AND she took a ton of pictures that she air dropped to my daughter at the end of the evening! Stella made the evening fun for us - exactly what we needed - and it felt like we were touring London with an old friend! This is now on several other family members and friends bucket lists. It is a must do during the holidays in London. I have been to many big cities during the holidays. Nothing has compared to the Christmas Spirit we saw through Stella's eyes in London. Thanks Black Taxi Tour London and Stella!
