London sightseeing tours & tour transfers from Heathrow Airport

Short stopovers between flights, transfer tours to your London hotel or tours from Heathrow hotels

London Black Taxi Sightseeing From Heathrow Airport
Private tours visit all the top places in London

No public tour bus visits Heathrow!

OK, let's get one thing clear first, the answer to the most common question from people on a layover at Heathrow Airport...

There are no public sightseeing tours that pick up from Heathrow or its hotels that will take you sightseeing into London, (or indeed anywhere).

If you want a public tour of London then you will need to take public transport into the centre of London and join the tour there or charter your own private sightseeing capability.

Heathrow to London by public transport is discussed on our dedicated page.

Time to kill between flights? See memorable Central London sights

We can offer tours from Heathrow Airport customised to your needs.

The most common categories these tours address are people who:

- Have time to kill between flights at Heathrow and want to use that time productively to see a little bit of London's famous sights rather than an airport terminal that could be anywhere.

- Transfer tours between your flight arrival at Heathrow and your Central London providing a good orientation of London's main sights before arrival at your hotel. Very practical if you have an early morning flight and are not able to check-in until lunch time. You'll see pretty much all the sights you'd see on one of London's hop on, hop off sightseeing buses.

- For those staying at a Heathrow hotel, some of which are quite remote from Heathrow, let alone London, providing a quick efficient way to visit London.

Very practical if you have a late flight time and return to your departure terminal just before check-in.

What you need to know about London black taxi tours

Up to 5 People in a famous London black cab with a cabbie guide

We can offer value for money tours, (remember the price is per cab, not person) from Heathrow at a fixed price or you can design your own custom tour.

The famous London black cab can go down lanes and roads far too narrow for tour buses so you can see parts of London others do not. The black taxi is also able to use the dedicated bus and taxi lanes on London's roads while other traffic have to queue.

Flexible pick-up & finish points

There is great flexibility where you start and finish your tour. It can be a Heathrow hotel, a Heathrow passenger terminal or a Central London hotel.

A London taxi can carry up to 4 suitcases plus 4 people or 5 people without luggage. With 5 people and 4 suit cases the newer Vito cabs can be substituted for the classic London black cab pictured at the top of the page at no extra charge.

For larger groups than 5 people we can offer a very similar service but in standard touring coaches of between 16 and 60 seat capacity with or without a professional guide. Use the enquiry form at the bottom of the page to start a dialogue and a firm costed proposal.
