Itinerary
This is the first stop on the tour. It is our policy not to tell you about this or any other stop (there's about ten in total) because that takes away the surprise. It's better to think of our time together as a Magical Mystery Tour—the 'mystery' being how such a small corner of London left such a massive mark on the global music scene, and the 'magic' being the songs that were written and performed here. One thing’s for sure: you won’t be disappointed. If anything, this tour just might be the highlight of your visit to London. That’s certainly our aim!

This is the end of the tour. And what an end! But still not going to say what happened here - but it's amazing. Rock 'n' roll! What we can say, though, is that you have just had the most amazing time and made some amazing memories. Yes, your feet might ache a little, but what a walk!

Great guide, very knowledgeable, good fun. I can highly recommend the tour. It lasts two hours the crowed wasn't too big and the atmosphere was great
Absolutely amazing tour and guide!! Knowledgeable and fun, perfect for me and my Mom visiting from the states!
A great tour with a fun and knowledgeable guide who tailored content to fit our interests. We also enjoyed seeing parts of London off the main tourist paths. We liked the tour so much we signed up for another one with Robin the next day.
The group was the perfect size for engagement in the material. Robin was extremely knowledgeable and presented his knowledge in a passionate, yet friendly demeanor. I would book again in a heartbeat as there’s probably so much more that he wasn’t able to cover in the 2 hours that we had with him. Bravo!!! 5+++ stars!!
Robin’s musical knowledge is only surpassed by his wit! If you hate music, laughter and an overall good time, don’t book this tour! Otherwise this is the best two hours you can spend in London!!
A fascinating and fun tour, giving an excellent overview of not only Soho's musical history, but of so much more, including its social development. Robin was welcoming, engaging and very witty. The two hours just flew by. Highly recommended.
Amazing experience to learn more about rock n roll in london. Our tour guide was very funny and well versed in music history! Would recommend for anyone interested in music or looking to have a good time with friends
Brilliant tour! Robin is a very knowledgeable and entertaining guide. He is passionate about music which really comes across as he walked and talked us round such an interesting, eclectic and vibrant area. The two hours whizzed by! I highly recommend it. Thanks Robin 😊
What an amazing tour. This will be one of my top highlights from my trip to London. So fun, so informative, so SOHO. They are the most wonderful and friendly tour guide. The other guests are also great. He is a wealth of knowledge and you should do this tour. Cheers - Todd
