The best rock and roll tour one could ask for in London! Alan, our guide was simply the most enthusiastic and awesome guy with amazing stories to tell. If you want an interesting and enthralling walk through London’s rock and roll history, I highly recommend it!

If you are raised on rock you should book this tour. I took notes of everything that was said, last time I did that was at uni. Among the other things I was surprised I never heard about Badfinger it bothers me now that I know what happened, so spreading their name is just the thing to do to make things even with how cruel things can get because of greed. English is not my first language and I could follow along, in any case people go for tours with Google Translator on, that's exactly what you should do with this one. Thank you and good luck.

Very enterteining and i learned about places where the stars of the 70’s played at or used to hang out. Our guide Calum told stories and facts about Bowie, The Who, Elton J, Rolling Stones etc. He asked the group questions about the musicians and their songs for us to try to answer. The area we walked through was mostly narrow old streets, guitar and record shops, bars were the artists went to and sometimes the drama they made there. I can recommend this tour and Calum made it a lively and fun experience!

Was a very informative and fun tour. Callum was entertaining and included a lot game show type questions at certain locations which made the tour even more enjoyable. Would definitely recommend to peel who enjoy history of Rock and Roll music here in London. After the tour I went to the pub that was on the route and talked about the tour to people from New Zealand and the US. Before they left they came back to me to get the info for the tour. I should get a commission.
