Pints, pubs and tall tales - The day was perfect, with sunshine and clear sky's. Jack was our guide for this adventure. Jack's knowledge of London, historical events, and stories, along with his humour, make this tour one not to miss. The pubs visited were in a secluded area of London, visited mainly by locals. Listening to Jack's stories, walking along the cobblestone roads, we were taken back in time to the day's of horse drawn carts and gentry. Jack's ability to draw you into the characters of each pub romanticised a time of thieves and murderers. Although we didn't bump into Sean Connery, Jack's company more than made up for it. Do yourselves a favour and book this tour, buy Jack a pint and take a journey into old town London.

A Great pub tour - The Great British Pub tour was amazing, we visited delightful little pubs that we would never have even knew existed if it wasn’t for this tour. Jack our guide had extensive information about the pubs and the shenanigans that went on there but equally had lots knowledge about the other areas that we walked by. A great afternoon spent learning about the history of the area, having a few pints and meeting new people. I would definitely recommend this tour and will definitely be back to do some of the other tours that Jack offers. Amy

Pure awesomeness!!! - What a great tour! It was just me and my husband! Most places would cancel in those circumstances, but they did not. So, we had a personalized tour with Jack. As he said, we started the tour as acquaintances and ended as mates! Jack gave us great local history information and took us to four pubs way off the beaten path that served excellent beers and ciders. We had a most pleasant experience and would HIGHLY recommend!!!

Great British Pub walking tour of Belgravia. - Jack our guide was very enthusiastic as well as knowledgeable on the local Belgravia area. He showed us the houses of famous old residents of the area such as Mary Shelley and Margaret Thatcher. He also obviously knew the local pubs very well and we stopped at 4 charming and interesting pubs. These all had a distinct and different character of their own. I can strongly recommend this walk to anyone who would like to see where the "posh" of London live , and where they drink. Jack is just the man to show you around !

Best thing we did on our vacation! - The meeting spot is extremely easy to find and there seemed to be several tours for the same company going out at the same time. After taking the tour, it's clear why! This company is doing something right! Our tour guide Tom was hilarious. He also works as an actor and a comedian and kept the entire group entertained for the whole tour. He had incredible stories to share and took us to the coolest pubs and drinking establishments we would never have been able to find on our own. All of the folks taking the tour started off as strangers, but by the second pub we were sharing stories and laughs, and by the last pub we were making plans for the next day and sharing contact information. This tour is an awesome way to learn about the history and culture of London while enjoying a few drinks and making new friends. If you are 80 years old, or 18 years old, there's no better way to spend an afternoon in London.

Cor blimey what a pub tour!! - What can I say! I had such a great time! I am a bit of a history nerd myself and I genuinely love learning new things , As Londoner myself it was so amazing to learn so much of the history of pubs and the old school pub culture that i never knew existed, also while having a few beers on the amazing pub tour. Glen was an amazing host and delivered such a awesome service/ experience. I went on this tour on my own and he made it very interactive and comfortable that I managed to meet lovely people in my group. Definitely recommend this if you want to know more about the English pub culture. 👌🏽
