    This was probably my favourite thing when we were in London. Sitting in old pubs, hearing the history and who had frequented the pubs in the past was wonderful. We went the first full day we were there and sampled some great drinks and food that gave us an idea of what to order through our stay. Our guide was knowledgeable, friendly and a lot of fun. At the last stop we played some shuffleboard. Highly recommend. The small group size was perfect

    I loved the historical bits of London that we got to see on this tour, and I'm still thinking about the giant scotch egg! It was cool to step off so many busy streets into calm hidden corners (and hidden pubs!) that I've never seen before, and our guide Judd was awesome. You can really tell he loves the history of the city and wants to share it with you too!

    Susanna is very knowledgeable about all things London as well as pubs. This tour took us through four great pubs with food and drinks that reflect on the history of London. We highly recommend this tour and guide.

    Had an absolutely magnificent time on the tour. The group was small, so we got to know each other and chat as we walked to the pubs and sampled the food and drink. I LOVED that these weren't just any old pubs that were chosen. Each of the pubs had a history and one would never have just found a couple of them while exploring on one's own. The variety of beers and ales provided a real overview of what is served and the food samples were both surprising (fried herring - I loved it, but most sampled and left the batch to me!) and expected (fish and chips). There was an opportunity to learn and play a shuffleboard type game (whose actual name slips my mind) as well. This was a real highlight of our short time in London and I highly recommend the experience.
