A note from Jack.

What makes a good London day?

Curiosity first.
Backstreets, not bottlenecks.
A guide who knows when to chat and when to step aside for the shot.

Parents relaxed. Kids engaged. Everyone leaves with a story.

That is Tally Ho.

We began in 2011 with a love of London’s pubs and the freedom of two wheels. We built tours for vibe and story, not straight lines.

Fifteen years and 50,000+ guests later, the spirit is the same: careful routes, an easy pace, and good humour.

On foot, by bike, by black cab, or in a fine British motor.

If you like exploring that feels polished, unhurried, and personal, we would love to host you.

Moments worth savouring

London tours that feel like good company.

We design small, story-rich rides and walks that skip the squeeze. You’ll see Big Ben, Buckingham Palace and royal parks — plus the juicy bits locals love. Think clever routes, British-made Pashley bikes, and hosts who keep things moving and smiling.

Our wheels & walks

British bikes at heart. London, your way.

We began on beautiful British-made bikes. Today we also host walks and private-vehicle days—the same spirit, at your pace.

The British bike difference

Upright, comfy Pashley bikes on quiet backstreets. Steady pace, photo stops, great stories—a gentle way to see a lot.

Walks worth talking about

Changing of the Guard done smart, historic pubs with proper tales, and hidden corners most visitors miss.
