“The larger the island of knowledge, the longer the shoreline of wonder”
Ralph W Sockman

You'll be travelling in a genuine London Black Taxicab, driven by a London cabbie, all of whom have had to go through the fiendishly difficult Knowledge of London.

Not only do they know every street in London, but they also have to know every route between two points. They have also undergone a thorough background check.

Only London buses and taxis are allowed to use the exclusive lanes throughout the city, which means that we can get around London much easier than most.

REVIEW CHRIS RATCLIFFE
Our customers say...
"I recently had the pleasure to attend a guided walk around London with a very knowledgeable and interest guide - Lee Cooper. I had worked for many years in London but I was surprised to be shown a variety of fascinating places I had never seen before. Together with hearing the stories of these places and people who lived there. It was one of those days I did not want to end and it left me wanting to know more about my city and the people who had walked those streets before me. Will definitely be booking another tour with Lee."
Christine B
"My family and I first met Lee in 2018. Since that time we have had him lead us on tours a total of 4 times around London and the surrounding areas. Lee is knowledgeable, friendly, flexible and all around an amazing tour guide. He knows all the right people, the tips and the tricks, to make your experience special for the entire party. We have toured in Spain, France, Italy, Scotland, and multiple Caribbean islands and Lee is by far our favorite. At this point he’s more of a friend than a tour guide."

"When we first met Lee Cooper on a family trip to England, his natural charm immediately welcomed us to a new country. All smiles and clever quips, Lee makes you forget that you've just met him; instead, he feels like someone you've known your whole life! We sat down in his cab, and he magically lifted the veil on myriad locations around England. We laughed together, shared common stories, and established an immediate rapport because his warm personality is immediately disarming and genuine. As we learned more about the country he loves so much, I realized that he was one of the best storytellers I've ever met! He'd weave tales inside of tales, and the conversation illuminated things about London, Windsor, Stonehenge, and other places that I hadn't known before! At the end of our journey together, Lee gifted us a coin as a memento of our time together and it is something I treasure to this day. The following year, I contacted Lee to be our guide again and show us around Epping, Essex and to take us into London in the evening to see the holiday lights. Lee, being so knowledgeable about all things London, made that evening of beautiful lights one of the most magical of my life. He knows where to go, makes wonderful suggestions and goes above and beyond just touring us around. Whether desiring a tour of London or surrounding area, I highly recommend Lee. It is my hope to go back again and hire Lee for another tour. "
