What an incredible experience! Live Clive was so fun! He knew his music, fun facts, and all of the best places to experience the music scene of the past! He even stood in the middle of Abbey Road to take our pictures!! Was a great experience!! You will totally enjoy the experience. The great air conditioned bus was a great plus. Our driver, George, handled the streets of London like a total boss!
Ian “Lucky” was a fun tour director and great driver, navigating the narrow streets with ease to show us so many gems. Loved getting to visit Abbey Road, Royal Albert Hall and Savile Row. Covered a lot of ground that could never be accomplished with a walking tour.
Our tour guide Ian Luck was absolutely brilliant and our driver Jack was safe and efficient! Ian knows so much about music and the music places in and around London. He took care of us at the Abbey Road crosswalk, was informative, and handed out little memorabilia to show and keep. You get more than your money's worth!
Very knowledgeable and engaging host. Excellent tour for British rock enthusiasts. Much of the information I wasn’t aware of before.
Really great experience. We were able to see all the important rock and roll locations with great insight into back stories. Clive was fantastic- really knowledgeable and funny. Definitely recommend!
Rock n roll/Beatles tour in Chelsea and beyond was excellent! Clive did an excellent job with lots of facts, history, perspective, and humor.
Clive was lively and interesting to listen to. He is extremely knowledgeable with a bit of dry humor added for entertainment value. He also noted a few other locations which was appreciated. Our driver, Neal was skilled and efficient navigating the traffic and roads. Overall, it was a great experience and very enjoyable.
Ian our tour guide was the best. He was very nice and extremely knowledgeable about all things British Rock and Roll. He customized the tour based on what EVERYONE was interested in and helped get the best pics to commemorate the day.
Our guide Ian was very knowledgeable and knows his way around the city. He wanted feedback from us regarding what our interests were and what we wanted to see.
Efficient, organised, timely and great service. When phoning to clarify if event proceeding due to issues in London (Marches, FA Cup Final, Flower show and rail closures) responder was very clear as to how matters would proceed. Guide (Ian Luck aka "Lucky') was very knowledgable, accommodating and amusing. Various houses seen (from the road, obviously) that are or were owned by Mssrs Jagger, Richards, Mercury, Page, McCartney plus Abbey studios (again, from the outside) and the infamous zebra crossing nearby. Stupidly, I left my mobile on the coach and when phoning, again spoke to a human being who was most helpful. Rang back today as requested and arranged pick up that went smoothly. So for me, the staff went above and beyond to assist me.
