Amazing Rock and roll tour - We had an amazing tour with Jon. Our private tour was packed with information and interesting locations of the rock legends we hadn’t heard before. He set up some great pictures of us on Abbey road and other places of interest and even let us sidetrack to a car show that popped up in the street. We would definitely recommend Jon! Throughly enjoyed this tour.

Worth every dollar. Do this first! - I cannot say enough good things about this tour! Jeremy picked us up at our hotel right on time and took us ALL around London showing us legendary places that made music history. This man knows his rock and movie trivia. He share clips of songs lyrics and photos. He took photos and made our trip extremely enjoyable. He pointed out landmarks, offered museum and pub and restaurant suggestions and truly went above and beyond. If I ever get back to London I will be using Jeremy from day ONE. Thank you!!

"Come Together" - If you are a music lover, this is your tour! So many legends in the music industry got their start or made it big in London, the Beatles, the Who, the Rolling Stones, Jimmy Hendrix, David Bowie, Queen, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Elton John...the list goes on. You could never see all the famous sights, but our tour guide Jon showed us so many, plus he was a wealth of knowledge about music and full of fascinating stories. we got the iconic photos and had a blast talking rock and roll. My husband and I both loved this tour!

A tour Beatle and Rolling Stones fans would love - Tour was informative but centered mostly around Rolling Stones and Beatles history. It would have been more interesting with a broader view of different artists, like Ozzie Osborn, Elton John etc. All in all the tour was good.
