5.00This was such a fun and cool tour! We walked around Soho and stopped outside several pubs and historical building landmarks and learned about various musicians getting their start right on those very streets. We heard some fascinating (and sometimes hilarious) stories about David Bowie, Led Zepplin, The Beatles, Jimi Hendrix, Ella Fitzgerald, Sex Pistols, Pink Floyd, Madonna, and even Mozart. If you're a music fan, I definitely recommend this tour! In addition to music, we also stopped inside 4 pubs that had historical and musical significance in Soho. Drinks are not included on the tour, but it was definitely worth grabbing a pint at each pub, as all pubs had their own beers that they're well-known for, so it was fun to try out a new one at each place. It was such a nice, sunny day, so our group all grabbed a beer and met outside the pubs and drank on the sidewalks, which is the norm for this city and creates a fun, community vibe. Our guide, Henry, was absolutely awesome! He was very passionate and animated, and he really brought to life these stories about these incredible musicians that we all know and love today. Having him as our guide definitely made the experience that much better! If he hosts any other tours, I would absolutely book another one with him!
