Great pubs, ales and London stories! - The pub tour sounded interesting but it was a surprise how fun it was. We especially enjoyed our guide George as he explained all the unique stories of the pubs but also throughout the walk between the pubs much of London city history. His knowledge and stories were fascinating and his passion of history and story telling made you appreciate London history……we were surprised it was one of our best tours!!

A brilliant tour! - An absolutely brilliant tour. Our tour guide George could not have been better. He was knowledgable, interesting, informative and friendly. The pubs we visited were literally hundreds of years old. George told us all the background to the pubs and their respective histories which was fascinating. To sit inside them and hear all about the history of each pub was amazing. We also had a sample of the beer - delicious. George also told us much about the history of the surrounding areas that we walked around. If you had a more general question about the history of London, George was only too happy to answer and he was so knowledgeable. What really came over to me was his enthusiasm and passion for the history of the city of London. I would recommend this tour to anyone who is at all interested in the history of our oldest drinking establishments. Thank you George - the tour made our day.

Definitely recommend - Me and my partner Tim had a great tour with George who was a really good historian. It felt like we got so much more than just walking and stopping in certain places since he knew so much about little details all around, throughout the entire walk. Really, really good! We also got lots of other tips for places to go and explore and a new favourite pub for good food.
