Great tour with Will - Will was an incredible tour guide on our London pub tour! He was fun, knowledgeable, and had the perfect mix of history and humor. His energy made the day unforgettable, and he took us to some truly iconic spots. Black fryers pub was our favorite. Highly recommend booking with him if you get the chance!

A Brilliant Tour That Exceeded Expectations! - We had an absolutely fantastic time on the Liquid History tour led by Linden. It was so much more than just a pub crawl — it was an engaging, entertaining journey through history with plenty of fascinating fun facts along the way. Linden brought the stories to life with humor and passion, making the experience memorable and far beyond what we expected. Highly recommended for anyone looking to mix history with a great time!
