About this tour
Pedal through London's ceremonial core and West End buzz on a private rickshaw, covering the capital's most photogenic landmarks in two hours. Start at Buckingham Palace and Westminster Abbey, swing past Big Ben and Trafalgar Square, then weave through Piccadilly Circus's neon glow before finishing in Mayfair's quieter elegance and the thrumming streets of Covent Garden and Soho. You'll ride at street level, moving at a pace that lets you actually see the city rather than blur past it.
Highlights
- Buckingham Palace and Westminster Abbey from ground level
- Big Ben and Houses of Parliament up close

What to expect
You'll settle into a comfortable three-seat rickshaw pulled by a trained rider who knows the back routes and main drags equally well. The first half covers London's ceremonial spine—palaces, parliaments, and plazas where tourists cluster. But the route doesn't linger; instead it moves you through at a human pace, narrating as you go. The second half shifts tempo. Piccadilly's sensory overload gives way to Mayfair's stately calm, then Covent Garden's market energy and Soho's compact character. You stay dry under the canopy, and WiFi keeps you connected if needed.
Good to know
Up to three passengers per rickshaw; larger groups split across multiple bikes ridden as a convoy. Water and WiFi included. Infants must sit on an adult's lap. Journey times between sights are built into the two-hour total, so you're not paying for dead time.
