Full Description

What Rent Car with Driver London is

A private car and professional driver for a full eight-hour day in London, for up to four passengers: the car goes where you want - shops, sights, appointments or a run out of town - and waits for you at each stop. The day covers up to two hundred miles, with fuel, parking and London vehicle charges included; any extra time or mileage is settled with the driver on the day. The driver is a chauffeur, not a guide - you set the route and the pace, and admission to venues is paid on site.

Our London team has kept this tour on the programme because it does the thing every visitor wants: the essential sights, in the right order, with someone who knows them. It is a shared departure, so you travel with a small group and pay a shared-vehicle price.

How the day runs

We collect you from central London hotels in the morning - the exact time is confirmed on WhatsApp the evening before. The tour lasts about 8 hours. A licensed guide leads the whole day, with time set aside for a meal at your own cost. Private car, driver, fuel, parking and London vehicle charges are included, so there is nothing to pay at any gate.

Good to know: Up to 4 passengers; 8 hours and 200 miles; extra time settled with the driver.

What is included

  • Private driver (no guided commentary) for the whole tour
  • Hotel pickup in central London
  • Private car, driver, fuel, parking and London vehicle charges
  • Shared air-conditioned vehicle or coach on every driven leg
  • Written confirmation on WhatsApp and one Haqqi Tours contact throughout

Not included: meals and drinks, tips and anything listed as optional on the day.

Who this is for

Families first: the pace suits parents with school-age children as well as grandparents. Couples and solo travellers make up most of every group, and first-time visitors to London get the most out of it because it covers the essentials in one go.

Best time to visit London

London is busy all year, with summer, the Christmas lights and the January sales at the peak; the M4 from Heathrow, the M23 from Gatwick and the M1 from Luton are slowest at weekday rush hours, and a Sunday evening back into town.

Whatever the month, book a few days ahead: group departures are limited and the popular dates go first.

Getting around London

The Elizabeth line and Heathrow Express, the Gatwick Express, the Stansted Express and the Luton train are all fast to a central station; from there the Tube with suitcases means stairs, gaps and crowds, and Wembley, Windsor or an Oxford Street hotel each add a change, which is why families and groups book a car from the terminal door.

Most guests pair this tour with one of our airport transfers or a car with driver, so the day begins at the hotel door.

More to see in London

Around this, the city offers the West End theatres, Windsor Castle, Oxford Street and Regent Street, Buckingham Palace and the Changing of the Guard and the Tower of London and Tower Bridge. The areas worth knowing are Westminster and Victoria, Kensington, Chelsea and Knightsbridge, Paddington and Bayswater and the City and Shoreditch.

Where to eat before and after

Food is part of the day in London: afternoon tea, a Sunday roast in a pub, curry on Brick Lane and Borough Market street food. There is time built into the tour for a break, and the guide will point you to the honest places rather than the tourist ones.

A practical tip from our London team

Tell us which airport and terminal - Heathrow alone has four in use - and the hotel's full postcode; London hotel names repeat across the city and the postcode sends the driver straight to the right street.

Specific to this tour: Up to 4 passengers; 8 hours and 200 miles; extra time settled with the driver.

Before you go: a short checklist

  • Your Haqqi Tours confirmation on your phone, with the start time and meeting point
  • An ID for each guest that matches the names on the booking
  • Comfortable shoes and a bottle of water; sun protection from May to September
  • Be in the lobby five minutes early; the driver cannot wait for late guests
  • Our WhatsApp number saved - one message reaches the team on the day

Prices, children and how the booking panel works

The booking panel on this page shows the adult rate and, where the tour has one, the child rate, in the currency we sell it in. Tell us the children's ages and we confirm the rate that applies. What you see is the total; card, Apple Pay and the other methods on this site are accepted at no extra cost.

Group size is limited by the operator of the day - typically a coach or a minibus - and the departure runs with the number of guests who have booked; we never cancel a confirmed seat for a small group.

Why book it with Haqqi Tours

  • We confirm in writing before you pay - date, time, meeting point, price
  • Support in English and Arabic on WhatsApp from booking to the end of the day
  • One contact for the rest of the trip: London transfers, other tours, tickets, trains, flights and ferries
  • Our own team has checked every product on this page; nothing is listed we would not book ourselves
  • Card and Apple Pay accepted; the price on the page is the price you pay

Combine it with

Most guests book this alongside an airport transfer into London and one or two more of our London tickets; ask for an order that fits your dates and we will lay the days out for you.

Arriving by air? The Elizabeth line and Heathrow Express, the Gatwick Express, the Stansted Express and the Luton train are all fast to a central station; from there the Tube with suitcases means stairs, gaps and crowds, and Wembley, Windsor or an Oxford Street hotel each add a change, which is why families and groups book a car from the terminal door.

The tour, stop by stop

The order below is the order we run it. London traffic and opening hours decide the exact timings, and the guide adjusts on the day, but every stop is on every departure.

  • Pickup at your central London hotel at the time you choose
  • Your first stop - a sight, a shop or an appointment
  • On to the next address with the driver waiting nearby
  • Westminster, Knightsbridge, the City or wherever the day needs
  • A break wherever you choose to eat
  • Further stops arranged directly with the driver
  • Drop-off back at your hotel after eight hours

What you will see and why it matters

Pickup is from any hotel in central London; confirm the start time and your first stops with us in advance, and child seats are available on request. London on your own schedule.

London is served by more airports than any city in the world: Heathrow (LHR) about 25 km west of the centre, Gatwick (LGW) about 45 km south, Stansted (STN) about 60 km north-east, Luton (LTN) about 55 km north and London City close to Canary Wharf; the West End, the City, Westminster and Kensington form the centre, with Windsor, Oxford and Cambridge within reach by road. This tour is one of the best ways into that story.
