Incredible royal history and a pint - The Royal Pub Tour with Ben was positively one of most enjoyable experiences we had whilst in London!! I highly recommend it. Our tour guide Ben was an absolute delight and so knowledgeable! We were old friends sharing a pint by the end of our tour. It’s so much more than just a history of the pubs.

We loved the cozy pubs we went to visit in London. The stories were informative and very funny. - We had a fantastic time with Alan, our guide for the pub tour! We didn’t know what to expect but he was absolutely hysterical!!!! Alan exceeded all/ and any of our expectations! Alan made our trip!!! This was the highlight of our few days in London. Alan was an expert in the history of London and the pubs of London, we learned SO much from our tour with Alan. He made the day so much fun and all of us as strangers to start became friends as we parted ways. I will highly recommend this tour to any of our friends traveling to London and will make sure they ask for Alan!!
