London calling - A fantastic tour of the area of London that created The Clash and many other bands. Great to see the few remaining sites around the West way. Loads of interesting social history about the area from Aidan, someone who has lived here and been through it. A must for Clash and Strummer fans.

A Great Tour Unlike Any Other! - We loved our tour with Aidan- it was probably the most fun tour we have ever been on! He was a hoot and we learned a lot about the history of the area and how that influenced music in that particular place. Thanks Aidan for a fun afternoon! My only suggestion would be a quick food or pub stop mid tour since it’s mid-day.

Very interesting and knowledgeable tour - Aiden is so knowledgeable about the subject, and of course he lived during it too. We learned so much about the clash, Joe Strummer and some other interesting subjects wholeheartedly recommend taking one of his tours. We had done the punk tour a few years back and knew that seen him again would make our trip, very interesting and very knowledgeable, highly recommend him

History brought to life - Aidan was fantastic. Local, credible, genuine and supremely entertaining. He made it all come alive. The mixture of history and personal experiences was unique.

Exceeded all expectations! - We had a great time on the Joe Strummer tour! Very thorough history of the locale and fascinating insight from a true local ((Aidan) as to what the scene was like that led to the clash (and many other bands) being formed! Highly recommend this tour!!

Absolutely worth it. - This was a spectacular tour if you're a big Clash nerd like me or a music nerd like my Father In Law. Hanging out with Aiden was like talking music with an old friend, except that he actually lived through it and could relay personal stories which made the whole experience so much richer from where we stood. We were where The Clash were in photo after photo we stood where they stood, we saw where they played, where they ate, where they fought and it was awesome. I cannot recommend the tour highly enough. Just do it.

One of the best experiences ever! - This is a phenomenal experience. You get to see tonnes of really cool locations and hear the inside story behind them. Aidan is a passionate man with fire in his belly, Strummer knowledge in his hedge and compassion in his heart. I'm not old enough to have seen The Clash live but I saw Joe Strummer in various solo incarnations. I feel blessed to have been able to see him live and I feel blessed to have been able to go on this tour. It's one of the best experiences of my life.

Strummer walk - Booked the tour for my partner who enjoys The Clash for his 60th. Aidan was very knowledgeable about the area and had lots of interesting facts and stories because he had grown up in the area too. We would defiantly book another tour as very enjoyable tour, thank you

A great tour for music and history fans - Aidan’s enthusiasm and history for music (Joe Strummer) and its connection to the area make for a great walking tour. He brings his own local experience as someone who also grew up in the area. This was a great way to spend a few hours.

The StrummerWalk Can’t Fail - Easily the most fascinating walking tour I’ve been on. I’m a huge fan of Joe Strummer and The Clash and am deeply interested in London’s music history more generally. As someone who was not alive during the mid-to-late 1970s, I appreciated the chance to learn about what Ladbroke Grove and W9 were like during that time and how they’ve changed. The tour offered interesting everyday life perspectives on the significant places associated with Strummer and The Clash as well as the wider social context in which Joe lived and made music. Aidan is a highly knowledgeable and engaging guide with a refreshing sense of humour. Anyone who is curious about the city’s music and cultural history will enjoy this tour and learn new insights. Strongly recommended.
