Interesting, fun and engaging - The guide was great - really friendly and funny. He was full of good stories and mixed the commentary with music and photos. We visited many different locations that I would normally have just walked past without knowing their history. We heard about a wide range of different musicians, bands, locations and many funny stories.

Fun and interesting tour - We enjoyed the enthusiastic stories of our guide. It is abundantly clear that he is a passionate music lover himself. Fun fact and facts and an interesting route.

A must if you are into the history of UK rock and roll. - A most informative tour. Spencer added a bit of his history to the tour which certainly made it more personal. A great journey down memory lane.

The absolute best tour guide! - If you’re into rock ‘n’ roll, you have to do this tour. Of course the tour is only as good as the tour guide and boy did we get lucky. Our guide’s name was Spencer; he actually is not a tour guide by trade. He was the one that wrote the scripts for this tour and was filling in for the regular guide. Spencer is a musician by trade and personally knew and played with many of the top bands of the 60s. He had a wealth of knowledge on rock ‘n’ roll trivia, practical experience as a musician in London and is a great story teller. This tour has been the highlight of my trip to England.

The rock ‘n’ roll walking tour of Soho, London, I would recommend this tour to anyone! - This tour was great. I had such a good time learning about where the Rolling Stones recorded their first album, where the Beatles would perform and then have their suits made by their personal tailor, where Jimi Hendrix performed The Beatle’s Sergeant Pepper‘s Lonely Hearts Club Band, and where a young Elton John worked serving coffee. Our tour guide operator Ceri was fantastic and very knowledgeable.

Thank you - We had fun It’s perhaps a bit long With more standing and less walking than we expected but I guess it’s very hard to deliver information on the move.
