Thomas was amazing! We learned so much and all while having the most fun! We were lucky to have him on his last day. Good luck to you Thomas!

This was our 3rd trip to London, and we saw more and learned more than on any other tour. Our guide Ian was funny, informative and accommodating. There is no better way to see the City!

Amazing! Can’t say enough about how knowledgeable and friendly our guides Ian and Tom were. Learned so much, and they were very flexible and easy to work with. Showed us great spots that we would’ve never seen otherwise.

Response from Host, Nov 2024

Hi there, Thank you so much for your review. We’re delighted that your party enjoyed our Tour, and that driver/guides Ian and Tom on form as always. Thank you for you kind comments! Kind regards, Mark Reddick Guv'nor of Guests smallcarBIGCITY team

We were as much as a tourist attraction as we were a tourist! So Fun!

Julie_B, Dec 2022
Jamie was just the best guide! He totally fit the part of a mini driver in London and took us to all the great highlights of London! So fun to park and get up close to the action that others wouldn’t fit in. Highly recommend this tour!

The only tour you should do

I have to say this was the most enjoyable tour I've ever done. Being in this little mini cooper was so fun. Our tour guide, Tom I believe his name was, was absolutely fantastic. He personalized the tour, gave amazing information and historical facts and took us to little hidden gems I know we wouldn't have seen on regular tours. We've spent almost a month in France and did a Daytrip to London and my daughter said this was her favorite tour and tour guide (and my daughter doesn't compliment much). Would highly recommend and will recommend to my friends and family if ever visiting London!

Amazing way to see London

Sharon_G, Apr 2022
Amazing day with a lovely guide who knew all the roads perfectly! We didn’t stand in traffic even once as he knew exactly how to go without. Ian was very kind and very knowledgeable, he let us stop wherever we wanted and waited for us always in a very convenient place. Will definitely do it again!! Loved every minute

Wir hatten viel Spaß und haben tolle Ecken entdeckt!
