I can't say enough good things about this tour. Our taxi driver, Mark was fantastic. He is so passionate about his trade and the beautiful city of London. We were able to learn so much history about London and see and do so many things within our 4 hour time frame. Honestly, I wish would have booked a longer time just to spend more time learning from Mark. Highly recommend!
