Luciana's passion for London and beauty make this a fantastic tour. She provides the historical context (of which there is a lot), but also the beautiful gardens, excellent food, and quiet streets creating an incredible three hours!
Ok so maybe the day did start a little dreary, but that was quickly replaced by our time with Maria. From a delicious start at a local tea vendor, through fresh oysters and scallops to a decadent mushroom risotto Maria kept us well fed and informed about local history and historic places. She is super friendly and we felt like we were exploring London through food with a friend - which we feel she became by the end. Over a pint to finish off the tour of course. And by then the sun was, of course, shining! We highly recommend a day with her!
I loved this tour. I learned so much from Leonardo as he is an expert at British History. I loved how he intertwined the food tastings with seeing sights around and learning. I highly recommend.
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.
