Experience Details

If you like the idea of taking a private pub tour with a fun friend who can also recommend the best drinks to have then this is the one. Your host Jane is one of the UK’s leading alcoholic drinks experts and writes books on alcohol, and London history. Jane was Britain’s first beer sommelier of the year, she is also the country’s first accredited cider sommelier, and has won many awards for her professional work.


On this tour you visit four incredible pubs for a drink and chat and as you walk between the pubs you also learn about interesting sites along the way – it’s two tours for the price of one!


Jane does not speak from a script, instead she responds to what her clients want to know which means each tour is personalised to your group.


Viator awarded this tour Top Global Experience & Best British Experience (twice). Jane loves introducing visitors to London’s pubs & has as much fun as her clients do! She looks forward to welcoming you and giving you a memorable tour.
