Adam was exceptionally great at this tour. He has great energy and wonderful stories of not just the pubs but the neighborhood. Unlike a lot of other guided tours outside you can actually hear Adam as he has a voice capable of projecting to everyone.

We had a great time. Kevin was a great tour guide. We visited four pubs and had a great height and a lot of stories in each pub. We would highly recommend this type of tour and it sounds like they do other pub tours which we look into on the future trip.

This wasn't just a tour; it was a full-throttle odyssey through time, taste, and timber! Imagine a journey where the dusty corridors of history collide head-on with the sophisticated burn of top-shelf spirits. One moment, I was absorbing the gritty, fascinating secrets of the past—tales of triumph and legacy—and the next, I was raising a glass of liquid gold under the glow of a century-old chandelier. The real showstopper? The stunning architecture of every single pub we graced. We transitioned from the rugged charm of hand-hewn timber beams and weathered brickwork to the polished elegance of Victorian-era mahogany bars that have stood the test of time. Each venue was a visual feast—soaring ceilings, stained-glass accents, and cozy nooks that felt like stepping into a living museum.
