The tour was so much fun and very informative! Sil was excellent at his job and even customized the tour to take us places we hadn’t seen yet, skipping the ones we had already seen. We would definitely go again!

Sil, a very gentleman, he adapt our tour based on what we were more interested in. Amazing on head-up and stories of the secret London

    London's Best Tour!

    James_R, Dec 2025
    Szil is the BEST! I ended up booking two tours. Has so much knowledge and got the absolute best London pictures.

    So much fun!

    Kiana_J, Oct 2025
    The tour was so much fun and very informative! Sil was excellent at his job and even customized the tour to take us places we hadn’t seen yet, skipping the ones we had already seen. We would definitely go again!

    Excellent Tour

    Perry_P, Oct 2025
    Excellent tour. Sil was very accommodating to find just the right window without rain for our Rickshaw tour. He went above and beyond! Matthew, our guide, did an excellent job of showing us the sites in Westminster and surrounding areas.

    Awesome tour! A highlight of our trip!

    Rob_c, Oct 2025
    What an incredible tour! Sil was an exceptional guide—pedaling us (3 adults) through London while sharing fascinating stories, historical insights, and helping us capture great photos along the way. His deep knowledge of the city’s history and its hidden corners made the experience both educational and entertaining. He navigated the busy London streets with ease, and his warm, friendly personality made the journey even more enjoyable. What an exceptional way to take in so many sights in a few hours especially if you are time constrained. Sil’s tour became one of the highlights of my 75 year old mom’s first trip to London! I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a unique and informative way to explore London! Thanks Sil!

    Best Tour Guide Around

    Joshua_A, Oct 2025
    We had the two best touring guides that London has. He was so informative about all the different locations in London. We Evan went to a sweet shop and got dessert.

    Excellent tour

    Matilda_K, Sep 2025
    Our guide rode us all through all the major attractions of London and catered to specifically areas we had not been to yet. He was very informative, personable and knew all of the best places to pull over

    Sil is a great tour guide

    Stan_R, Aug 2025
    Sil was a was a great pedicab tour guide. He took us to many interesting places all over central London and showed and told us about things, people, history and places we never would have known about on our own. Very pleasant fellow and enjoyed chatting with him during the tours. You can get into smaller places in a pedicab that you could not on a tour bus and it saved hours of walking. Highly recommend Sil and this tour!

    Fun experience. Learned a...

    Julie_W, Aug 2025

    Steven_D, Jul 2025
    We had a fantastic tour with our guide Matthew. He arrived on time and took us all over the city and gave us fun facts along the way. We would highly recommend the tour

    Relax and enjoy the sights

    Christine_C, Jul 2025
    Mathew was a great guide. Mathew picked us up at our hotel and returned us back. We experienced parts of London off the beaten track. It was so enjoyable to just sit back in comfort and enjoy the sights. We highly recommend this experience. Great for people with mobility issues.

    Great tour and wonderful way to see London

    Michelle_S, May 2025
    We had a great time - he was very knowledgeable and showed us all the main places in London. I would definitely recommend doing this tour if you’d like to see a lot of London in a relatively short period of time.

    3 words: Fabulous, Fantastic, Fun

    Joy_D, May 2025
    Absolutely fabulous!! Silo regaled us with stories and facts that gave context and texture to the buildings and monuments around central London. The tour included places that were fascinating but not mentioned on Hop-on/Hop-off type tours or in most tour guides. The tuk tuk allowed us to feel like we were connected to the action without having to walk or worry about getting lost. We highly recommend this tour for everyone but especially if you’re not up to walking for miles to see the sights.

    Fantastic experience through the heart of London

    Andrew_W, May 2025
    Very experienced and friendly guide. Adjusted the tour to our needs and wishes. Would recommend to all.

    Brilliant & Dazzling London Tour

    Heidi_T, Mar 2025
    We had such a fantastic morning, getting to see all of the highlights of the heart of London, from Buckingham Palace to Winston Churchill on a bench, from Big Ben gleaming in the sunshine to a bit of Americana, in the form of Ben Franklin’s house. Our tour guide was knowledgeable and funny, and made the experience a treat. I’ve already recommended him to half a dozen friends who are visiting London, and becoming months, and I strongly recommend him to you. Being able to see the city from a petty cab rather than the top of a bus is charming and interactive, too.

    Great way to see the City with someone who has limited mobility!

    Andrea_M, Mar 2025
    My husband was suffering a back issue, so we had to pivot from our walking tour, and Sil was absolutely wonderful! His knowledge of the History of the City, and getting us over such a wide area in such a short time was truly amazing. We were thrilled to be able to see so much!

    Phenomenal Experience!!

    Deanna_W, Feb 2025
    This was such a unique way to experience London! I truly immersive tour with stops along the way for souvenirs, Sil was amazing and very knowledgeable!! Highly recommend

    Great tour

    Kevin_F, Oct 2024
    Terrific tour around London, guide was super friendly and very knowledgeable about the area. Fair pricing and trustworthy.

    We had a wonderful time - perfect way to see London.

    Jennifer_G, Oct 2024
    Sil was a great rickshaw driver and tour guide. He took us all over to the places we wanted to go and even places we didn’t know we wanted to go until he showed us. Even though the London traffic was crazy we felt safe with him. I loved his stories and personal knowledge. He was very genuine, and we had a wonderful time.

    Silo rickshaw

    kevin_m, Sep 2024
    Silo was our driver. He was a safe driver, he wanted to make sure our expectations were met and brought us to many hidden gems areas of London. We would highly recommend him and his rickshaw which was decorated so festive.

    Rickshaw around Kensington and Picadilly

    Donna_D, Sep 2024
    Our guide Szilimar Barabas was great. The tour was a good way to see the major historical sites around Kensington and he gave us interesting historical facts. I much preferred this over a walking tour with a group of people we were able to determine what else we wanted to visit in more detail. Also stopped at a wonderful wine and spirits shop and was a given a great recommendation for a fish and chips Pub. Highly recommend.

    Great adventure in London

    Lori_L, Jul 2024
    Sil was a wonderful driver of the rickshaw. He was very informative with the history of Londkn and conformed the ride to suit us. Really enjoyed the time with Sil and saw many highlights in London,

    Great tour

    Lainey_D, Jul 2024
    Great tour! Silo was a a fantastic guide. We saw all of the highlights plus fun facts and details that you would never get on a large tour! Highly recommend!

    Interesting, fun, child friendly and informative

    Charlotte_B, Jun 2024
    We had a thoroughly amazing time with Silo and Matthew - they are wonderful people and wonderful guides. I am British and lived in london for several years - they showed me lots of interesting things both old and new that i never even knew! It was a really pleasurable afternoon and the kids simply loved it.

    Great intro to London for the whole family

    SHERRY_A, Mar 2024
    This was a great way to introduce our family (with teens) to London. Our tour guides, Silo and Matthew, were excellent. They accommodated our group of 5 by bringing two rickshaws. And they were friendly and knowledgeable. They took us to key sites as well as some off-the-beaten-path spots for a view into beautiful local neighborhoods.

    Response from Host, Apr 2024

We always strive to provide a memorable experience, and I'm thrilled to hear they exceeded your expectations. Exploring the city's iconic landmarks and hidden gems with your family was a joy. We hope to welcome you back for more adventures in the future!
