Brilliant Tour which was made even more so by Tom who was our guide. Tom was very knowledgeable, funny and interactive with the whole group. The tour was well worth the money, highly recommend.
Rob is a very relaxed, knowledgeable, and patient tour guide. The tour, which took place on a Wednesday morning, was enjoyable and unhurried, creating a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere throughout.
A 50th Birthday treat.....If you like the Stones/Beatles and 60/70s music.... you will love this walking tour
Our tour guide Spencer was amazing and knowledgeable and full of stories about The Beatles, Sex Pistols, Pink Floyd, David Bowie, Oasis and loads more bands, when they were all trying to make it big and he talked about and showed us, where these bands hung out and recorded their music. A very interesting walk around Soho. Very enjoyable.
Really enjoyable afternoon learning about London's rock and roll past and present. Great stories brought to life by our knowledgeable and entertaining guide Tom.
As a huge fan of british music and rock in general, it was very exciting to walk on my favorite artists’ shoes and go back a few years to get to know London from a different point of view. The guide was funny and full of interesting stories, many of which I’ve never heard before. I highly recommend the tour.
We had walking tour with Spencer Gibbins who was informative and made he tour very interesting and good fun. He used real lived experience and even though we enjoy music and have a knowledge he showed us places and told us facts that we would not have uncovered on our own. Really great value and we thoroughly enjoyed our walking tour - thanks Spencer
My daughter's a massive Beatles fan, So my wife and I got her this tour for Christmas. I really want to thank you guys, and especially Tim, our guide around the key spots in London. She absolutely loved checking out all the different places on the tour, Tim made it great since we were the only ones there. He was super friendly, which was a big help because we've never done a tour like this before. So, seriously, thanks The details about each place were really informative. So, yeah, big thanks again to Tim for making this tour Enjoyable!
We had fun It’s perhaps a bit long With more standing and less walking than we expected but I guess it’s very hard to deliver information on the move.
Fantastic 2 hour walking tour. Our guide Michael was brilliant and so knowledgeable. I consider myself a music buff and I learnt so much about how this part of London contributed to the music scene. Great value. Would highly recommend,
