Private tour from your London hotelPrivate Tour of Central London

4h, from 07:00

Up to 16 people

Your London hotel

Free cancellation, 24h

Your own driver-guide and a car that stops where you want it to. Four hours covers the three landmarks everyone comes for. Eight gives you the city, with time to go inside and to eat.

The day

A private tour, so none of this is fixed. Tell your guide what you'd rather see and the day changes around you.

Start

Your hotel

Collected from the door. Central London hotels and addresses inside the congestion zone are all fine.

+40m

Buckingham Palace

The forecourt and the Victoria Memorial. If the Changing of the Guard is on, your guide will time the morning around it.

+1h 45m

Westminster Abbey and Parliament

Where every English coronation since 1066 has happened, with Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament across the road.

+3h

The Tower of London

Nine hundred years of fortress, palace and prison on the Thames, with Tower Bridge beside it.

+4h 30m

The British Museum

The Rosetta Stone, the Parthenon sculptures and the Great Court. Free to enter, and the extra hours are what make it possible.

+5h 45m

Lunch, somewhere worth eating

A pub or a cafe your guide actually rates, not the one with the queue outside. Your own time and your own bill.

+7h

Covent Garden and Hyde Park

Street performers under the market roof, then the park on the way back if the weather holds.

+4h

Back at your hotel

Or anywhere else in central London you'd rather be dropped.

Not in the price

Entry tickets are not included. Westminster Abbey and the Tower of London both charge, and your guide will tell you which are worth the money and which are better from the outside.

Before you book

Pick-up: Any hotel or address in central London.
Which length: Four hours is the three big landmarks, seen from outside, at a steady pace. Eight hours adds the museums, lunch and the time to go inside things.
Tickets: Buy them yourself in advance for the Tower and the Abbey — it's cheaper and you skip the queue.
Start time: The 4h tour starts at 07:00 or 13:00; the 8h tour starts at 07:00, every day. Every tour is customisable: a different start time, extra stops, more time where you like it, or a longer day. Tell us when you book.
Language: Guided in English. Other languages on request, if we have notice.
Cancellation: Free up to 24 hours before, refunded in full.

Questions

Which length should I pick?

If it's your first day in London and you want to see the landmarks and get your bearings, four hours does it. If you want to go inside the Tower or spend real time in the British Museum, you need the eight — four hours disappears faster than people expect in London traffic.

Does the price depend on the size of the group?

Yes. The tour is private, and the price depends on how many of you travel, starting from €550. Choose the number of people when you book.

Why aren't entry tickets included?

Because most people don't want all of them, and buying them yourself online is cheaper than us buying them for you. Your guide will tell you what's worth going into.

Can we start later?

The four-hour tour starts at 07:00 or 13:00, and the eight-hour at 07:00. Any of them can start at another hour if you ask — just tell us when you book.

Can we customise the tour?

Yes. Every tour is customisable: a different start time, extra stops, more time where you like it, or a longer day. Tell us when you book.

Can I change the date or the time afterwards?

Message us and we'll move it if we can — we work with several drivers, so there is usually room. More than 24 hours ahead costs nothing.
