Limo Hire in London – Breaking Down The Best Routes
The Waterfront Route – The Thames River
If you’re looking for a serene yet breathtaking tour of London’s waterfront, the Thames River route will give you all that and more. Beginning at Tower Bridge and spanning the entire waterfront before just in the view of Big Ben, this incredible route allows you to glide along the banks of the River Thames, letting you gaze in awe at the modern architecture and towering skyscrapers of England’s incredible capital.
On top of that, this route also provides you with a glorious view of some of London’s most iconic landmarks, such as The Shard, the Houses of Parliament and the London Eye. Whether your London limo hire takes the form of a stretch limo, a hummer limo or another type of limousine for hire, this route provides a luxurious setting to take in the sights.
The Royal Route – Buckingham Palace and Westminster
A journey through London simply wouldn’t be complete without experiencing the wonder and grandeur of Britain’s famous royal heritage, and our limos for hire are the perfect way to experience this. Beginning at Buckingham Palace, the home of the British monarch, you’ll cruise down the Mall, past the lush greens of St. James’ Park and onwards towards the historic Westminster Abbey.
This route also passes the Houses of Parliament and the iconic Big Ben clocktower, adding an additional flavour of sightseeing to your limo journey. The elegance of the route, coupled with the prestige of these landmarks, is sure to make this a fantastic, unforgettable experience. A Baby Bentley Limo would be the perfect vehicle for this journey, it’s classic design perfectly mirroring the prestigious route.
The Scenic Route – Hyde Park & Kensington Gardens
London is an undeniably busy city, and sometimes the hustle & bustle of the city centre can prove overwhelming and uncomfortable. If you’d like a peaceful escape away from the city’s industrial noise, we recommend taking a scenic drive through Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens.
As two of the biggest green spaces in the city, this route offers a calm, tranquil contrast to the city’s urban landscape, allowing you to take in the ornate statues and serene lakes as you glide through the parks. This route comes to a close at Kensington Palace, the former home of the late People’s Princess, Diana – a fitting end to such a serene, calming journey.
The Culture Route – Covent Garden and The West End
Fans of the theatre couldn’t ask for a better journey than the route through the iconic West End, home to the heart of British Theatre. Whether you plan to attend the premiere of a top-class play at the Palace Theatre or you’re seeing the latest edition of Cabaret at the famous Playhouse Theatre, a party limo hire, such as the Pink Hummer or Hummer H2 limousine, will allow you a glamorous, eye-catching entrance, akin to that of a movie star entering their latest premiere.
Additionally, this route also takes you past the beautiful Covent Garden piazza which offers a wide range of boutique shops and fantastic restaurants – perfect for those looking to go on a fancy shopping trip following their West End show.
The Entertainment Route – The Docklands to the O2 Arena
Music fans & concert attendees couldn’t ask for a better entrance to their night of entertainment than a brilliant entrance in a classic limousine. Running from the Royal Victoria Dock all the way to the Greenwich Peninsula, this fantastic route showcases exactly how London has transformed itself into the industrial powerhouse that it has become today. For a route like this, we recommend picking a stretch limo, particularly the Hummer H2 limousine. This white Hummer limo’s immense 16-seat configuration can accommodate large groups all heading for the same event, and its built-in bar and LED dancefloor help to kick the celebrations off the second you step inside.If you require more information on Phantom Hire’s limo service, or our chauffeur services that operate specifically in London.
