London Trip Overview
When you close your eyes and think of London not much else epitomises the greatest City on earth more than a London Black Taxi and an English Pub!
So why not combine the two? Sit back and take a fun tour of London with a real Londoner safely escorting, entertaining and educating you through the historical streets and buildings of the magnificent capital we call home.
Stop off in at least 3 Historical Pubs to sample the beer, wine or non alcoholic beverages (like the driver!) whilst enjoying tales and stories of historical events and characters that have enjoyed the very same pub you are sitting in.
It may be a legendary pirate tale, famous patrons, political event or a lovers tryst. Each and every Pub stop will have something unique and absorbing to tell, almost as if you had been sent back in time. You can marvel at the Olde English interiors and sample the atmosphere of our Inns, Taverns and Gin Palaces from the comfort of a mahogany chair.
All pubs are child friendly and accessible.
