London Christmas Lights Guided Tour by Cab

About this activity

This is the very best way to see the London Christmas Lights.

The Lights are mainly in London’s vibrant West End, along the iconic shopping routes such as Oxford Street, Regent Street and Bond Street.

We also see superb lights in Mayfair, Trafalgar Square, the Thames Embankment and Westminster.

The car is an electric powered 6 seater, with a glass, panoramic roof and is solely for the use of your group.

We can stop wherever you like for photos and I have a fabulous route planned out, which we can alter as we go along to let you see whatever you like.

I am an experienced London Cabbie and qualified Tour Guide, so I’ll tell you loads of interesting facts and stories about London too.
