Hey there! Ready for a quick glimpse of London's must-see sights in an iconic London Black Cab? This whirlwind tour is perfect if you're short on time and want to experience the city's iconic landmarks. We'll be doing a scenic "panoramic tour" with some fantastic photo stops along the way, so you can capture those perfect London memories. Because we're covering a lot of ground, this tour focuses on exterior views. Fancy peeking inside any of the attractions? Just let us know beforehand, and we can personalize your itinerary and maybe even make the tour a bit longer!

Tilbury to Central London

We'll pick you up right from Tilbury port in your own classic London Black Cab and whisk you away to the heart of London. Your friendly guide will share some interesting facts about the area as we travel. Once we arrive, you can either let your guide lead the way to some of the top attractions, or you can tell us which ones you'd love to see – it's your tour!

Houses of Parliament & Big Ben: Marvel at the iconic clock tower and the seat of British government. Capture stunning photos of this architectural masterpiece.
Westminster Abbey: See the historic coronation church where monarchs are crowned and notable figures are buried.
Buckingham Palace: Witness the Changing of the Guard ceremony (subject to schedule and availability – can’t be guaranteed in a short tour). Even if the ceremony isn't on, the Palace itself is a sight to behold.
London Eye: A giant Ferris wheel on the South Bank of the River Thames in London.

Trafalgar Square: Take in the vibrant atmosphere of this central London hub, dominated by Nelson's Column and the National Gallery.
Piccadilly Circus: Experience the dazzling lights and billboards of London's entertainment district.
Tower Bridge: Admire the iconic Victorian bridge and learn about its history.
The Tower of London: A brief stop to view the historic fortress and former royal residence.

Return to Tilbury

After your London experience, your driver will escort you back to Tilbury Port. We'll coordinate the return journey to ensure you arrive with plenty of time before your ship sails.

The MPV, with driver-guide, comfortably accommodates up to 5 passengers with luggage or up to 8 passengers without luggage.
The London black cab is wheelchair-accessible and permitted in areas restricted to regular vehicles. Accommodates up to 4 passengers with luggage or up to 6 passengers without.

To help us keep our tour on schedule and ensure you get the most out of your time, entrance to attractions isn't included. However, if you'd like to explore the inside of any specific attractions, just let us know beforehand! We'll happily adjust the itinerary and chat about any potential changes to the tour's length and cost. For some attractions, tickets might need to be purchased in advance. We're happy to offer advice on this – just tell us which places you're keen to visit.
The Changing of the Guard ceremony is a fantastic spectacle, but it's dependent on the Household Cavalry's schedule, so it doesn't always happen. We'll do our best to include it if it's on!
London traffic and access can sometimes be a little unpredictable. This might mean we need to make small tweaks to the itinerary on the day, but we'll always keep you informed.
Food and drinks aren't included, but your guide will be delighted to point you towards some great local restaurants and cafes where you can grab a bite to eat.

Our customers say...

"That man is a GEM – don't let him go away. During our week long stay we spent time with a handful of guides – London Walks, three EF guides, a Blue Badge and several others, but I will state with utmost certainty that not one of them was as genuinely interested and willing to make our day perfect as Chris. He set us at ease straight away with his warmth and down-to-earth personality and proceeded to entertain and enthral us with tales and trivia the whole day through. He asked just enough questions to get an idea of our interests and then managed to please everyone. What a perfect way for us to spend our last day in England...thank you for assigning him to our group...please, please give Chris a gigantic thank-you from us all."

"Dear Chris- Tonight you proved to me what I had thought from the beginning of the tour – that you’re intelligent, thoughtful, and genuinely kind – Also you have a charming sense of humour – and a lot of class (which is a term to encompass all the above)."
