Every tourist thinks about riding around London in an open-top sightseeing bus, but how about sitting in one of London's black taxi cabs instead?

This private tour will see the cabbie pick-up your group (of between 1-5 people) and then take you on a 2-hour tour around London's most famous landmarks, giving commentary as he goes. You can even take control of the route yourself and tell the driver where you want to go. He'll also stop on request so you can get out and take some photos, grab a souvenir, or take a closer look at an attraction.

If you'd rather let the driver choose the route then he'll include famous landmarks like Nelson's Column in Trafalgar Square, Buckingham Palace, St. James's Palace, and drive down Whitehall to see Downing Street, Horse Guards and the Houses of Parliament. He'll also include Westminster Abbey, St. Paul's Cathedral and (time and traffic permitting) Tower Bridge and the Tower of London.

Note: There are lots of starting points all across London, not just Trafalgar Square. You can choose the most convenient starting location when you book.
