David Rouland

Introducing our Local Legend David Rouland: a French native- cum-Londoner who gives guided black cab London tours in both English and French. A vibrant and outgoing character, David adopted London as his home in the early nineties after a short holiday in the capital and is now a fully-fledged Londoner. His love affair with this iconic city saw him embrace some wildly exciting opportunities including working as a butler, often to members of the Royal family, and discovering many of the capital’s secret spots and stories. David’s passion for London lead him to take the prestigious ‘Knowledge’ exam, which requires committing to memory the entirety of London and takes on average four years to complete. By passing the exam, David gained the right to drive his iconic London black taxi as well as qualifying as a Westminster guide. Now he proudly combines the two, offering a unique experience of touring London from his black cab whilst relaying stories of royalty and city secrets. During this unique guided tour, discover the diversity of experiences the city has to offer and hear tales of London’s secrets from a true expert.
