Amazing music history tour - This was an amazing walking tour. So much musical history, from the studio where countless musical classics were recorded to the gutter that Pete Townsend passed out in that inspired the classic Who line... Who are, who who, who who? Jack was our guide and he was very knowledgeable and very fun and engaging. Recommend 1000%

Great pub and music tour! - Absolutely great time. Calum was creative in his storytelling and kept us engaged throughout. He made the tour unique to us, asking what all our interests are to make sure we all got what we wanted out of it. Stopping at fascinating pubs for a drink at each was a fantastic idea, I didn't realise so much history took place at the pubs in Soho and so many hilarious stories about the music legends frequenting the pubs. Would 100% recommend and can't wait to book the next one!

Callum the fantastic soho rock and roll pub tour guide - Callum was a fantastic guide. His story telling is unmatched and I feel so happy to have done this tour. I learnt lots of fun facts, had tons of laughs, a few pints and overall a fantastic time. I think it’s a perfect tour for someone in town for a long or short time who doesn’t want to be out all day. You will smile a ton and learn some great things to tell at your next dinner party. Couldn’t recommended this more! This company is reliable and the communication prior to the tour was stellar.
