Awesome tour! Beyond expectations! Tom was a great guide!
Tom was the absolute best and really brought the tour to life! We learned so much and had so much fun exploring London's classic rock history. Tom had such fantastic energy and really made sure we had the best experience and lots of laughs along the way!
Tom was a fantastic guide. The tour was tremendous and would highly recommend very informative and very interesting. 5 stars
Filled with great stories of many artists my husband and I both enjoyed along with history of the musicians. Carlos was very informative, personable and entertaining.
An absolutely fantastic tour and one of the highlights of my visit to London. Al is an exceptional guide – knowledgeable, engaging and incredibly entertaining. His unmistakable British humour and brilliant way of telling stories bring the history of British rock ’n’ roll vividly to life. This was quite possibly the best guided tour I have ever experienced and it left a deep impression on me. If there is only one tour that a visitor to London and a fan of British rock ’n’ roll should take, it has to be this one with Al. An unforgettable experience and an easy five-star recommendation!
Carlos was friendly and knowledgeable. We have done a lot of guided tours across Europe. He was one of the best.
Our tour guide Tom had great stories, was very knowledgeable and kept the flow going. Highly recommend Tom to anyone going on this tour
Excellent overview of all English artists, I learned some great information and atoms stories were excellent. So much history and I was glad to be a part of it.
Calum is awesome!! Loved his impersonations of various singers. The tour was great & the stories made it so informative. Calum is an outstanding guide & true asset to his company. He made it a point to interact with everyone in our group. We had such a good time. Thanks!
You definitely get a fun filled, packed with knowledge, experience. The two hours went really quickly and there was lots of hilarity from the tour guide who certainly knew his onions.
