Seamless Arrival, Ultimate London Highlights

Your journey into the heart of London starts the moment your ship docks. This tour perfectly combines your port transfer with an unforgettable sightseeing experience, managing your luggage and getting you settled before your adventure begins. You'll be greeted directly at the Port of London Tilbury by your professional driver, Brian White.

Brian will whisk you and your luggage away in comfort directly to your Central London hotel for drop-off. Once settled, he'll take you to meet your private tour guide, Rob Woodford, at the tour starting point—the ideal central location to kick off your adventure.

Rob's Classic London Tour is where history and the city's highlights collide. Discover the soul of the city in just 4 hours, all experienced in style aboard the new electric Black Cab, the most authentic and eco-friendly way to explore the capital!

The Black Cab Advantage: Two Guides, Zero Stress

Unlike typical tours, you benefit from a unique two-person team: your driver, Brian, and your dedicated guide, Rob.

While Brian expertly navigates London’s busy streets (using bus lanes to cleverly save time!), you have Rob’s undivided attention. He’ll focus 100% on bringing London's stories alive for you, not on the traffic. This means more captivating history, more fascinating secrets, and a true VIP experience from start to finish.

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."

"My husband and I brought our 12 year old grandson to London for a surprise trip. We booked a drive to Oxford & the Cotswolds with Albion Touring prior to our arrival. On the day of departure our driver Chris (also Albion’s owner!) arrived spot on time. From the minute we left the doorstep of our flat Chris narrated our drive and brought the history of London from Roman times alive for all of us but especially for our grandson. In Oxford Chris took us thru the city telling us some of the most interesting tales. He engaged our grandson on his level and was constantly asking after our comfort. We saw several villages in the Cotswolds and upon learning that we were cheese lovers to us to his favorite cheese shop. I needed supplies from the local pharmacy and he carried those for me in the village and even ran them back to the vehicle. He went out of his way to take us to the The Kings Men Circle of Stones. A smaller Stonehenge with fabulous legends and we loved it. If you are considering booking a drive with Albion don’t hesitate. I would do this again and again! "
