So glad we booked this private tour. Our guide, Neil was great! He made this tour so pleasant. He picked us up at our hotel and drove us to all the significant places in London where the Beatles recorded, performed at, and lived. Along the way he told us stories about other famous musicians and people who lived and recorded in London. Neil took pictures of us and even took his time taking perfect pictures and videos of us at the crossing at Abbey Road. Got to sign a couple of walls with a sharpie the Neil had handy for us. Thank you for a great tour, Neil. And thank you for the great stories.

Itinerary
Abbey Road Crossing No Beatles tour is complete without a visit to the Abbey Road pedestrian crossing-famous worldwide thanks to The Beatles' iconic album cover. Here, you can step onto the zebra crossing, recreate the famous album cover photo, and capture memorable photos of this historic site.
Start your tour at the legendary Abbey Road Studios, where some of the most famous recordings in music history took place.
Although privately owned, 3 Savile Road in London is historically linked to The Beatles’ manager Brian Epstein, who played a key role in their rise to fame. Additionally, the band famously performed their legendary rooftop concert atop Apple Corps headquarters on Savile Row in 1969, marking their final public performance and adding to the location's iconic Beatles history.
The Beatles received their MBEs (Members of the Order of the British Empire) from Buckingham Palace in 1965, a historic moment where they were officially honoured by the Queen, symbolising their extraordinary contribution to British culture and music.
Visit Soho, the vibrant heart of London’s nightlife and music scene, famously known as the birthplace of British rock and roll. It’s home to legendary bands like The Rolling Stones, who played some of their earliest gigs here, and countless iconic music venues that helped shape the UK’s vibrant rock history. Explore the lively streets where British rock legends began their journey to international fame.
Trident Studios in London played a key role in the recording history of The Beatles, who used the studio for several of their later albums, including *Rubber Soul* and *Revolver*. Known for its state-of-the-art equipment and innovative recording techniques, Trident helped shape some of the most iconic sounds in Beatles' music, making it a significant site for fans interested in the band’s recording legacy.

Our private Beatles taxi tour was phenomenal! Simon, our host and driver was the perfect tour guide. He not only showed us places and things we never would have found on our own, but gave us so much history while being completely entertaining and low key. I've been on many tours in various countries and had some excellent guides, Simon was heads above all! From the moment he picked us up at our hotel until the final drop off (our lunch spot). Simon took the best photos of points of interest during our experience and sent them to us through the What's App, this was above and beyond whatever we expected. In addition to learning so much about the Beatles he included other British musicians and bands throughout the tour. Private taxi tour is a must for all!!!
Kevin went out of his way to take me to a place that was meaning ful to me but not on the normal route. He was friendly and prompt
We did a Beatles cab ride tour. There were four of us and we had a fantastic time! We booked the tour on line and the process was smooth and easy. Our tour guide Simon contacted me before we got to London to agree on a time for him to pick us up. He followed up to confirm the pick up time the day before the tour, and he was at our hotel bright and early to pick us up! Simon gave us a thorough overview of where he would be taking us and he was quick to make adjustments if there were other things we wanted to see. He was very knowledgeable about the Beatles and shared so many stories that made the tour a real high point of our trip to London! He also got us access to places that the general public would likely not know about and certainly, would not have access to! We were absolutely delighted with our tour and Simon our tour guide, and give Viator a resounding recommendation!!
JP was great! He took us all around, stopping at Beatles landmarks and even leading us in taking pictures! He also took the time to explain over text to us the pictures again so we could remember everything he told us. He answered all of our questions and more and was very engaging to listen to. We would recommend this tour to anyone, not just Beatles lovers! Thank you JP for an amazing day
We had a fantastic time on this Beatles London tour. Our guide was incredibly friendly, completely accessible, and shared a ton of great stories along the way. While we hit the iconic Beatles landmarks you’d expect, the highlights were the deeper cuts. We went to several lesser-known, off-the-beaten-path sites that we never would have found on our own. It was also a nice surprise that the tour wasn't strictly limited to the Fab Four; the guide included some really cool spots steeped in broader British music history. Cruising through London in a comfortable taxi cab made the whole day easy and stress-free. If you're a music fan looking for a great, well-rounded perspective on the city's music history, this tour is well worth it.
Dave was so pleasant, friendly, considerate, accommodating and quite informative as a tour guide. I highly recommend him.
The private Beatles taxi tour exceeded all our expectations. Paul, our tour guide, was the best! He was friendly, informative, provided insights and stories about the Beatles that we had not heard. He took us to all the sites that we wanted to see throughout London. He took excellent care of us. We would highly recommend the tour and Paul as a guide for the Beatles.
Simon was fantastic! 11/10 would recommend. He picked us up from the hotel and started sharing all kinds of interesting information and history. The tour takes you all over to rock and roll sites in London, and Simon took pictures of us on Abbey Road. Great for visiting London!
The day was fabulous. I am a Big Beatles fan. Got to see so much. Dave our guide was so knowledgeable about everything Beatles. He went way above my expectations. I wanted to see Abbey Road and be able to go across. Dave made it happen. In addition to the Beatles, we were able to learn so much about the city itself. Found the tour online. It was easy to book even with the differeces in our currencies. Dave thank you.
Simon was the best. He took us everywhere we wanted to go and saw everything we wanted to see. We highly recommend this service and specifically Simon.
Neil was the best tour guide I have ever had. My family has traveled around the world for 2 decades now and have not had a better private tour. His knowledge, personality, and ease of touring was top notch! We decided we will never use another form of touring than private taxi tour and would not hesitate to request Neil when in London again. Neil acted as tour guide and photographer so we didnt miss a single shot. Do Not Hesitate to book!!!
Our extended family of 11 made this special trip together for the Christmas holiday, starting in Germany. The London part was a surprise for the 5 cousins, ages 11, 13,16,17, and 18. The logistics of that were challenging, of course. But our 2 drivers, Simon and Steve, made the 4 hour Beatles tour a real highlight for all of us! From picking us up at our hotel to dropping us at our next tour spot at the Tower of London, they made it fun, fascinating, and fabulous! The taxis are spacious, comfortable and easy to get in and out of; their personalities were friendly, engaging and hilarious, and they captured all the iconic photos we’ll forever be grateful for. Thank you Simon and Steve!
This was the most fantastic tour I have ever been on, and we owe it all to Simon. He is a fantastic guide who knows more about the Beatles than anyone I know! He took us to all the hot rock music spots in London and even showed us a few under-the-radar locations that left us mesmerized. He is a great at capturing the Abbey Road photo all the Beatles fans want to go home with, he knows great insider Beatles trivia, and he had a marker all ready to go so we could add our signatures onto the wall outside the Abbey Road studio. I can't tell you enough how it is worth every penny you will spend. It was easily the highlight of our London vacation, and we went to every big attraction. The three others who were in my group are huge music and Beatles fans and would tell you exactly the same. Book it now and make sure to ask for Simon.
We had a fantastic time with Simon as our guide. Tour was excellent, Simon was awesome! If we could give 10 stars we would. Showed us all the sights and more! The time flew by and was a truly great time.
We had a wonderful 3 hour tour with Simon all around London. He showed us all of the famous spots where the Beatles planted their seeds and other Rock n Roll legends. It was epic and he was such a great tour guide. I highly recommend this tour!
We had a fantastic tour. Neil and Simon were very good. There were 8 in our tour and we all were left smiling. We have been talking about every day since. We have been telling everyone how great it was, and recommend it to anyone who is a Beatles fan.
Great tour. Great driver. Highly recommended Dave is great. Nice paced tour knowledgeable polite, considerate
Simon was our guide and was absolutely wonderful, truly a highlight of our London vacation. He was engaging, thoughtful, and his enthusiasm was contagious! As he learned more about our interests he adjusted the tour for us. The photos he took of us are some of the best family photos we have. Will absolutely be recommending him to anyone coming to London!
What an incredible experience we had with Simon as our Tour Guide. I have had some great tours in the past, but Simon is in my opinion, the "Best". His detailed knowledge and experience shines when you engage in the conversation and show your appreciation. We toured all the Beatle sites throughout London and then he added more to the Tour by showing us the new HARD ROCK CAFE along with Freddie Mercury's piano played at home. He also showed other off-beat sites that were amazing including some never seen before views of London from a distance. Simon is so personable and always smiling. With a wonderful sense of humor our 4 hr long trip went quickly. I am a guitar player and have a wealth of knowledge about the Beatles. Simon and I enjoyed several debates over some Beatles trivia and Simon was in fact correct. I would highly recommend Simon and no doubt you will have a fantastic experience. Yogi
We were fortunate to do our tour of London with Simon and it really was a wonderful experience. From the beginning he showed great empathy and charisma, making us all enjoy the tour, even those who did not master the language. His way of guiding was always enjoyable and entertaining: he shared curious and interesting facts about the city, guided us with patience and dedication, and also had the detail of taking many photos for us to keep nice memories. With his sense of humor and closeness, he turned the tour into a unique and very special experience. We definitely recommend it with complete confidence.
