Upon arrival, you’ll meet your dedicated guide, Lee Cooper, to begin your exploration of London’s historic streets. Although this is primarily a walking tour, you have the unique advantage of having Shane and the cab remain on hand throughout the tour. This provides peace of mind and flexibility; you can hop back into the cab for a quick rest, whisk away to a landmark slightly further afield, or easily navigate areas where steps and uneven pavement might pose a challenge. Whether you choose to follow Lee’s expert route or customise your own, you have the ultimate support team to ensure you see London exactly how you want to.
