Overview

London is a big and complicated city. We are here to make it simple and really maximise your time in the capital. If you are looking for a comprehensive overview of London with a highly trained, passionate local guide then our Best Bits of London tour is for you.

You will travel in a fully restored classic Mini Cooper and stop off a local market for a coffee and a pastry. After half a day with us, you will have a new friend and the capital will feel far less intimidating. The best bits of London are often hidden away, tucked down tiny back streets and alleyways – places only a Mini can get to. We have ten years of experience to make sure you are at the right place at the right time, to make the most of your time with us. The Best Bits of London tour is the experience we have to spend the most amount of time and energy researching and perfecting. We will make sure you have an unforgettable experience that will provide you with memories that will last a lifetime.
