Experience Details

Visit some wonderful old pubs, some going back to before The Great Fire of London. Each with their own character and history to tell whilst enjoying an unhurried drink in some very special and unspoilt location just as Londoners do. On occasion sometimes we may swap a pub around with a different but equal quality pub in the unlikely event of a pub being closed.


Please note this is a private tour for just you (with friends or family if attending). This is NOT A SMALL GROUP TOUR.

Stephan added so much color and knowledge to the tour. It was a great experience start to finish. We got to see many different neighborhoods and pubs that we never would have found on our own.
