We had an amazing time with Chris. Chris picked us up and was extremely polite, knowledgeable, and funny during our tour of London. He’s an expert driver could go on Top Gear. We saw many gems in London I would have missed without an expert guide showing us the city. I highly recommend this tour and will be texting Chris back when I come back to London. Thank you Chris! We had a great time!

Absolutely brilliant, our driver Chris was the funniest and most informative driver ever! He made our experience better than we imagined. A surprise for my father in law who had a mini as his first ever car, he loved every minute of it reliving his youth, talking of memories from his own times driving round London in his mini with his mate! Thanks Chris!

Something really different. Great two hour tour with Chris in his mark 3 mini. Very varied and interesting itinerary to parts of London we had not seen before. Great way to see music and film related locations plus lots of interesting city history.

We done this trip Xmas 22 and decided to do it again this year. Explained this to the driver and he took us to different completely different places. Excellent fun and very interesting

This was an incredible experience, our driver Chris was the perfect guide and driver. We loved DOT, and will be coming back next June to do another tour. Make sure that you book this tour, they are the best and really excellent value for money. The only way to see London!

It was all a big surprise for my wife on our Wedding anniversary, Chris contacted me the night before and we made arrangements to enhance the surprise. The day was set and after eating out we causally walked down the rd and saw a mini, and we asked the driver, (wink wink) Chris if we could take a picture and of course he said yes, I then told my wife what I had arranged. We were then whisked all over central London in this classic, Chris was knowledgeable and added so much more than I expected to the trip including fun and excitement. We have lived in London for many years and still we found the information given was entertaining and factual, We would and have recommended this trip to friends and family. Thank you Chris for helping and being a part of our celebrations.

Tom was an amazing tour guide and it was an excellent way to start our 14th wedding anniversary! The Mini Cooper is such a classic car and it was a joy spending the morning touring one of our favorite cities! We will absolutely book again on the next trip. Thanks again, Tom!

Went out with the fabulous Tom for the afternoon. That man sure can talk - he knows so much about the City of London! Very entertaining and informative. A great present to receive. Opportunities for photos stops too. If you book a tour, I’d recommend you ask for Tom.

Nick was an excellent guide, he was great at navigating the congested roads of London and knew the corners to turn for the nicest sights. We liked our Lilibet too (our little green Mini)!

We had a great time. We had literally just gotten to London a couple of hours prior. This tour was the perfect way to get our feet wet ! Our driver ( I think Tony ) was personable, enthusiastic and prompt. We would definitely recommend to anyone.

This was SO much fun! Tony was our driver and was incredible. Very knowledgeable, especially since we threw him a bit of a curve ball by informing him we'd actually lived in London for a year. He managed to find some places we'd never heard of, and some history we didn't know! Fantastic time- would recommend this to anyone.

If you are a Mini lover, this tour is for you. You will get all the looks driving around the city in it. People can't help but smile at the sight of a classic Mini, and the beautiful car I was in was named Lulu. Tom, the guide and driver was really great. I wasn't sure how awkward it would be since it was a solo trip but he was welcoming and outgoing. I heard all about the history of the buildings and streets as we were driving, occasionally parking for a few minutes by certain places. Besides getting an entertaining tour of the city by a guide that knows his stuff, I got to see how fast that Mini could go just for a few seconds when the road allowed for it. It will probably be awhile until I am back in London, but I will definitely be doing this again next time.

We had a wonderful time touring around London in a vintage mini. Our guide/driver did a great job sharing knowledge and showing us areas we had not been to before.

I booked the Panoramic Tour of London in a Rover P5 for my husband's birthday. Tom, our guide, was absolutely superb.. His breadth of knowledge, sense of humour and wealth of interesting anecdotes and facts just made the tour a truly one-off experience. (who knew that there are now more parakeets than pigeons in London, and that only the reigning monarch can drive through the central arch of Admiralty Arch?!) My husband actually got to drive the car as well! Would 100% recommend this experience. Thank you Tom 😊

This was a birthday present for my classic car mad husband and he absolutely loved it! Jamie, our tour guide, wasn't only knowledgable about London and showed us the best bits of London that we haven't seen yet, but also patiently answered all of my husband's geeky questions around the Mini fleet itself. Cannot recommend this more - we enjoyed every minute of the tour! We will definitely come back to do the Classic Barock'n'Roll Tour someday.

The Beetles Tour was so fun, we got to see Abbey road and Robert, our guide, was very nice! We played Beetles music the whole time from the car speakers. The owners are very passionate about their business and are very personal throughout the tour. Highly recommend if you what to see London through the eyes of a local.

I love London, and have been to visit many times, but this was my 16 year old niece's first trip. I wanted to make it a magical and truly unforgettable holiday. I had a jam-packed itinerary planned but I wanted to add something extra special and quirky, that neither of us had done before. Then I discovered small car BIG CITY! I emailed the company with a request for a bespoke tour, and the owner Tony replied to me straight away with pricing, options, and suggestions. We booked a tour for last Sunday morning, with pick up from our hotel in Marble Arch. Tony texted me that morning to confirm everything, and he arrived 20 minutes early to collect us. The car he selected for us was Agnes - a dinky green vintage Mini Cooper convertible, and we whizzed around London for 2 hours. Honestly, it was the best craic ever! We went all around the West End, Mayfair, Park Lane, Hyde Park, Buckingham Palace, Princess Diana Memorial Fountain, Soho, Embankment, Westminster, Downing Street, Bond St., Picadilly, Chinatown, Knightsbridge, Kensington & Trafalgar Square. We stopped in Covent Garden for a stroll and some ice-cream (as it was 34 degrees in London last weekend!). My nieces all-time favourite movie is Notting Hill, which we had mentioned, so Tony & Agnes brought us there too, specifically to that famous house/door where the paparazzi scene was filmed with Hugh Grant's flat-mate. You know the one! I cannot recommend this tour company highly enough. I don't like public transport in general, particularly buses, and I certainly didn't want to be stuck in traffic on a packed bus in high season on the hottest day of the year. This was the perfect antidote - Agnes (& all the other vintage mini coopers in the fleet) can whizz in and out of traffic, alleyways and parking spots that made all of the main landmarks in London so accessible in such a short period of time. You can also request a specific drop-off at the end of the tour, so we hopped out at Selfridges in Oxford Street, as we had a lunch reservation on the fabulous rooftop terrace. We had such an unforgettable day. Thanks again to our wonderfully dapper, accommodating & hilarious tour guide and chauffeur Tony. We'll definitely see you & Agnes again soon, that's for certain! #girlsweekend #London #girlsweekendaway #lovelondon #nottinghill #minicooper #vintagecars #londoncity #londoncitytours #bespoketours #london #summer2022 #YOLO

What a fantastic experience touring around the streets of London with our driver and tour guide par excellence, Thom! He took us in Agnes, the classic Mini to see many interesting sights about town. Thom is very knowledgeable, charming and funny. We laughed for 2 hours straight -absolutely loved it! Highly recommend booking a tour, whether you are are new to London, or think you already know it, this tour will offer surprises and great views from the windows and rooftop, and vintage coolness to boot. Great gift to self or others, really good fun, very enlightening. So happy we saw the city in this way! Thank you Thom and Small Car Big City : )
