A car and driver for the day with your own guide on board. We drive between the sights and stop where it is worth getting out, so you see the whole of central London without walking it. Built for anyone who cannot or would rather not walk seven miles: you tell us how far you can manage and we plan the stops round it.

What is included

  • A car with a driver for the day, collected from and returned to your door
  • Your own guide with you in the car, in your language
  • Short stops on foot at the places worth getting out for
  • One visit inside of your choice, planned into the day
  • Photographs of you at the stops, sent over the same evening

Where we go

  1. Buckingham Palace and the Changing of the Guard on the days it runs
  2. Westminster: Big Ben, Parliament and the Abbey
  3. Trafalgar Square and down Whitehall
  4. St Paul’s Cathedral
  5. The Tower of London, then across Tower Bridge
  6. The South Bank and the London Eye
  7. Knightsbridge: Harrods, the Royal Albert Hall and Hyde Park
  8. The Christmas lights on Regent Street and Oxford Street after dark, in winter

Worth knowing

Price is per group, not per head: up to five people, or six to eight in a larger vehicle. Entry tickets are paid on the day. Airport pickup can be added to the same booking.

Rather do it on your own? London in one to four days: the West End, the river, the City and the villages is the free guide to it, or get the days timed for your dates.
