Private London Gin Safari: A Spirited, Juniper-Fuelled Jaunt

Overview

Available languages

English

3 hours 30 minutes

Mobile ticket

The Private Gin Safari takes your group on a juniper-fuelled jaunt across London to reveal a story of gritty social history and the city’s turbulent affair with its favourite tipple.

As we wobble our way around picturesque Dickensian architecture, libations of ‘mothers ruin’ will be served from our GinCycle™, a rickety Victorian gin parlour on wheels.

The Gin Safari celebrates the eccentric and all that is best about the British. Think of it as a liquid history lesson on bicycles, with laughs and banter along the way.

Expect a gentle cycle, bustling food markets, colourful graffiti, fabulous views, interesting insights, crude jokes, and, of course, plenty of gin tasting!

Fabulous social history/ gin tasting tour with Shibby biking through delightful quiet streets of Bermondsey and beyond to the Thames itself: Shibby was an exemplary host, we sampled five or six different gins and delicious artisanal tonics in historic locations: An absolutely wonderful afternoon - unmissable,

Fantastic way to spend a Saturday afternoon! Would thoroughly recommend this tour/company to everyone! Both Mike and Tristan were great tour guides, very knowledgable, helpful and patient. We will definitely return to try out one of their other tours and will highly recommend everyone we know to do the same. Thanks for a great day Tally Ho!

What a super way to see London!! Tristan, our guide was very entertaining and great fun but also delivered the historic facts in an enthralling and interesting way. My friend and I have both lived in London and without a doubt this is a great day out for locals and tourists. The gin was great and for anyone who doubts the combination of gin and lovely vintage bikes - don't....it really works. Tally Ho!!

We came on Saturday as a group of 15 as part of my sisters hen do, A great time was had by all, We opted for a shorter 2 hour tour which was perfect for us, Mick our Guide was great fun and very interesting, the gin was delish! we cycled whilst England played in the world cup, the streets were deserted! but they choose back roads anyway so don't worry. Jack was also very helpful when booking, and very accommodating with me chopping and changing numbers and times.
Fantastic Tour with Mick

We booked this on a whim because we had an extra day in London and it ended up being one of our favorite memories of our time there. Mick does a great job of hitting some of the classic 'tourist' spots like the Tower Bridge and the original location of The Globe, but also showed us some wonderful areas we never would have found on our own. It's a great way to spend a few hours exploring a different side of London than you might see otherwise!
