A taxi driver is just a stranger who picks you up and drops you off, right? WRONG. There’s surprisingly a ton more that goes into it and Tom The Taxi Driver explains just why we should pay more attention to black cab drivers! 

Since starting his YouTube channel during lockdown, it has boomed to over 100k subscribers that tune into his videos on secrets of the trade! Tom details how he mastered The Knowledge, and the extensive training and memorising routes that took YEARS to complete. 

Tom busts myths on tipping, carrying animals, lost property, and fare dodgers. Why doesn’t he use a Sat Nav? Why should we use a black cab instead of an Uber? Why did a passenger smash his window?

Toms spills the beans on the secret taxi network at Heathrow airport, and he shares some great food and pub recommendations from his extensive travels around London. 

Tom also tells us about the wonderful annual charity event that he’s involved in, where a convoy of around 100 black cabs all transport sick children and their families to Disneyland Paris - check out the links below and consider donating to support this fantastic cause.
