Overview
Available languages

Visit pubs that time forgot, out of sight, nestled among cobbled backstreets, where the greatest of British characters used to live, work and play.
From London's most notorious local pub, where gangsters once mingled with lords and ladies, to the pub where the Beatles could secretly have a beer, away from fanatic fans - the same pub where visiting superstars such as Bradd Pitt and Lady Gaga go for fish and chips!
See the quaint mews houses where great artists once lived, like James Bond creator Ian Flemming and Bond actor Sean Connery.
Hear legendary tales of Frankenstein writer Mary Shelley and enter London's most haunted pub! The stories surrounding this pub will send shivers down your spine.
Enjoy the pub where Prince William can be found and where Kate Middleton spent the night before their historic wedding.
Feast your eyes on classic architecture and stunning views that capture the essence of London's hidden treasures.

5.00Carlos our guide was great! My friends and I weren't exactly sure what to expect but it was so much fun. The recommended beers at the spot made it cool to compare each one. You get some history along the way about the spots but it's not overwhelming. We went out to lunch after with Carlos after because we liked him so much! Would definitely recommend.
5 stars!

5.00Would definitely recommend this tour to anyone interested! Luke did an amazing job leading us through the Belgravia area and sharing some of the history with us. We learned throughout the tour and had fun seeing a different area and trying out the pubs. They hit up pubs you would definitely not find on your own, and you get to experience the true history and environment of some original London pubs. Great visit length, definitely worth the fee, 5 stars recommend and we would do it again!
Rocking all the way
