We were assured by the company that a tour would be provided on our selected date as we were travelling for the tour. However a few days before our scheduled tour we hadn’t received any further information as promised . We contacted the company and were told initially that they were waiting for suppliers to confirm but then they changed their story and cancelled the tour just under 24hours as there wasn’t enough people on the tour. We had already booked travel and hotels which could not be cancelled. The company then proceeded to ignore our and Virgin emails as we requested a refunded or exchange. We were eventually sent an email with alternative dates but this was not satisfactory as this was the second time we’d been let down by the company. We eventually got a refund from Virgin but I would be very cautious about booking with this company and would never book one of their tours again. Sadly from reading other reviews this has happened to a few people. It seems the tours are very poorly managed and the company is not able to provide the service promised.

We started in Leicester Square and spent about 1 hour and a half walking around Soho and Mayfair looking at some really cool places from the birthplace of rock and roll to the site of The Beatles rooftop performance. Chris our guide was lovely and very knowledgeable. To make it 5 stars there needs to be a big finish i.e. Chris mentioned going to the hard rock museum and that could be included as part of the tour.
