Amazing Tour!

Anthony was such a great local guide who knew so much about the Borough Market area and the surrounding area. We thoroughly enjoyed the food, conversation, and history and left completely full and happy! Kids ages 8 and 14 also enjoyed the tastings and he catered the route to keep them entertained too. Delicious!

Great for those wanting a “bit more”!

Tom was an excellent guide and story teller, Blending history with context, and adjusting the tour to be engaging for two adults with two teenagers. I learned a ton, ate some tasty bites and feel I could navigate Shoreditch nicely the next time I’m in London.

A Must for Any Music Lover Visiting London

We had an unforgettable walking tour of London’s 60s rock history with our fantastic guide, Tom. His passion and deep knowledge of the era brought every stop to life, from legendary venues to tucked-away gems you’d never find on your own. We explored iconic locations like Ronnie Scott’s jazz club, the building where both Handel and Jimi Hendrix lived (talk about worlds colliding!), and the art store where Yoko Ono first met John Lennon. Standing outside the former Apple Records studio and visiting the home of Paul McCartney added even more depth and context to the stories of that revolutionary time. Of course, no rock history tour would be complete without Abbey Road—and yes, we walked across that famous crosswalk and visited the studio itself. It felt surreal retracing the footsteps of legends. His knowledge of The Who, Beatles, Hendrix, etc was fantastic and how it all collided within the streets and burrows of London. Be scampered through the posh areas, seeing Fabergé eggs selling for $1,000’s to an area where someone threw out Yonko’s art thinking it was trash. Tom’s storytelling made it all so vivid—he connected the dots between places, people, and moments that shaped not just London, but music history itself. Whether you're a lifelong fan or just curious about the era, this tour is a total highlight.
