2 hours (approximately)
Offered in: English

Explore London’s West End with me your 100% five star, music obsessed guide. I won’t just show you the sights; I’ll take you on my personal tour of Soho’s rock ’n’ roll soul, packed with energy, laughter and insider stories you won’t find on any plaque.

We’ll visit the doorway where Paul met Linda, the club where Hendrix made his official UK debut and silenced Britain’s guitar gods and the building where Jagger and Richards auditioned for the Stones. Stand where Bowie became Ziggy, and where Buddy Holly and Jerry Lee Lewis tore up early London stages.

See the former Sex Pistols home, and recreate the Oasis "Morning Glory" cover. We’ll stop by the studios that birthed Bowie’s Space Oddity, Elton’s “Your Song,” The Beatles’ “Hey Jude,” and George Harrison’s “My Sweet Lord.”

We’ll even uncover the venue where Genesis played as Garden Wall and The Police as The Aces in 82.

Bring your sense of fun, every stop has a story, every corner has a secret and I’ll share them all with you.
