Very interesting, plenty of information. Guide was very good, friendly. Went on a very hot day, pleasant pace was taken.
Thanks for your nice review, so glad you enjoyed Sweeney Todd





Un tour di qualcuno che viveva o lavorava qui nella zona negli anni '60 / '70 durante le generazioni di mod e flower power, quando Soho brulicava di gangster, poliziotti piegati, moda, club, locali notturni e bar! In realtà conoscevo molte di queste persone e all'epoca ho vissuto molti di questi eventi! Ciò significa che posso fornire molte informazioni approfondite su quanto fosse eccitante un posto a Soho!

Very interesting, plenty of information. Guide was very good, friendly. Went on a very hot day, pleasant pace was taken.
Thanks for your nice review, so glad you enjoyed Sweeney Todd
Really enjoyed the tour today, was fantastic to hear all the history of Soho and its inhabitants from somebody who lived through its glory years. Our tour guide was fantastic and engaging and we’ll be back to do the Ripper tour soon!
Thank you for your wonderful review. I am so glad you enjoyed it!
Tour was brilliant and l will do it again and the lady was great. She was brilliant. I was in London all day .the tour was great
Thank you for this great review, glad you enjoyed it so much
The gangster tour was fantastic. The tour guides were very knowledgable and funny at the same time and everyone one the bus seemed to be enjoying themselves. I would recommend it 100%
I was a little confused as to why some parts of the ‘gangster tour of soho’ focused on 70s pop stars rather than gangsters as well as spending the first 10 minutes talking about the London Palladium. Some of the facts that were mentioned and some of the photos were not accurate. That said it was a fun 2 hours and the tour guide was a nice lady. It just felt a little bit thrown together and inaccurate. Not exactly as it was described.
If you read the description on Trip Advisor first, which details all the stops on this tour you would have seen that there were stops about pop stars, clubs and the London Palladium. I could just walk my customers to Great Marlborough Street and start with the Great Marlborough St Court and not stop on the way but the London Palladium ison the way and a world famous theatre so it seemed a shame not to include a bit of its history. I am perplexed as to why you think some of the photo's were not accurate, do you mean photo's of the gangsters or clubs/places that were there at the time? If you were not there then, how can you be sure? Some photo's I show date back to the early 1900's none of us can be positive about these, I show many more to the 60-70's when I was in Soho these I am pretty sure are accurate as I can remember it well. I show some gangsters at various ages also. Sometimes it is difficult to get a photo for a particular year so i have tried to get as near as possible in this case. I try to show that Soho over the years has been the haunt of gangsters, pimps and con-men alongside actors, artists, the sex industry and the avant garde as I think that most people would like to know how all these people mingled in this area.
I bought tickets for this tour for my boyfriend and I and we certainly weren't disappointed! The tour around deepest darkest Soho was absolutely amazing! So many stories, brilliant photos of various points we stopped at compared to back in the 50's and 60's and the tour guide was absolutely awesome! Having lived and worked in Soho at the time of all the places we visited she was so interesting, funny and honestly made me long I'd been there with her!! Hones can't recommend this tour highly enough. So much packed into 2 hours and we're definitely booking for her Jack the Ripper tour very soon! Best end to a rainy Sunday afternoon! Totally loved this 🌟🌟🌟
Fantastic Tour! Jenny our Guide was very knowledgeable and shared many memories of her time in 60s & 70s Soho. Her enthusiasm carried us along and you could sense her love for Soho and its history. Was able to pick up wonderful new information and help via her memories and anecdotes. Definitely recommend booking yourself a place with Jenny as your guide. You'll learn something new and wish you could have been there. Five stars all the way.
Thank you for your kind review. I'm glad you enjoyed the tour so much it is a pleasure sharing my memories with people who appreciate them.
Really interesting and informative walk in a small group. Met at Oxford Circus and walked Carnaby Street and Soho, hearing tales and anecdotes from Jenny who had lived and worked in Soho through some fairly seedy and gruesome times. It was lovely to be able to interact and find out so much about the recent past and how the area has changed so much. Would definitely recommend the tour and the tour guide as an interesting way to spend a couple of hours in London.
Thanks you so much for leaving this great review
We have just completed a great tour of Soho learning about the Gangsters of the 60s by someone who was there and lived it. A brilliant and illuminating insight into what it was really like in the areas where it took place. Highly recommended.
A wonderful review! Thanks a lot!
