Definately a tour for classic rock/Beatles enthusiasts. Clive was a knowledgeable guide. Tour would have been better in a smaller group size, a full bus is too many to crowd the venues, especially the Abby Rd crossing, which is a busy traffic area
We really enjoyed the tour. It was very informative. Clive was very knowledgeable and helpful. He took a picture of each group crossing Abby Road.
Fun and informative tour. Our guide Clive was great and told many interesting stories. Great afternoon!
Definitely worth it! I enjoyed this tour. The tour guide, Clive was amazing! He gave great insights to the spots around London, and gave great stories.
Great fun, lots of Rock n Roll stories and sites. Best was the Beatles cross walk and abbey road studios and gift shop. Your guide was fun and knowledgeable.
Clive was a “Rock Star” of a tour guide! Extremely knowledgeable about Beatles & many other bands and London history. If I’m ever back I’ll do it again. Was my highlight of London. Austin is a great coach driver as well.
We got a great tour of the area. Ian was an awesome guide and very knowledgeable. What an asset he is!
It was amazing! Our tour guide, Clive, was incredible! Definitely would recommend it, even if you don’t love Rock music. It’s insightful and amazing!
4 hour rock tour and sightseing of important neighnorhoods. Received information of local old rock groups.
Ian was extremely engaging and knowledgeable especially about many rock legends. We were not at all rushed, allowing the tour to extend to 4 hours. Unfortunately, however, I expected a tour entitled "The Beatles, Abbey Road and rock legends" to primarily focus on The Beatles, who were scarcely mentioned until more than 2 hours into the tour.
If you're interested in a range of rock stars from the Stones to the Sex Pistols, this is a great choice. If you're mostly interested in the Beatles, probably another tour would be a better choice .
Enjoyed the tour with our director, Clive, who was funny and full of information, and takes a great video when you’re walking across the Abbey Rd., Crossing!
Clive made sure we stayed on schedule and that everyone was comfortable and enjoying the tour. Highly recommended.
We were so lucky to have Ian as our tour guide! He is a gifted storyteller and has a great sense of humor which made this tour thoroughly enjoyable. Ian knows everything there is to know about the English rock scene! He shared interesting stories about all of our favorite musicians and kept us totally engaged throughout the entire tour. He was also generous with his time by making certain each guest got their special Abbey Road crossing photo. I highly recommend this tour only if Ian will be your guide. He’s the absolute best!
The tour was great and Clive was great on knowledge, but poor on time management. Our tour was an hour over and we still had to leave before it was finished to be able to make our dinner and theatre plans. If the royal Albert hall was actually open and if some of the streets were not closed off I expect it would have been longer. Clive has amazing knowledge and extremely entertaining but a little long winded
AVOID this tour operator at all cost!
Absolutely HORRIBLE communication.
Location was changed, but not communicated well, no reminder and was not updated in the app so we missed our tour (despite trying to taxi & meet up along route) and they refused to refund.
This was a great tour. It was good to just sit and relax in the air conditioned small bus and listen to our very knowledgeable guide, Ian, point out who lived where and who played gigs where. What Ian doesn’t know about rock and roll is probably not worth knowing!! We saw where Mick Jagger and Jimmy Page lived, saw Jimmy Page’s house and went past the Beckhams just to name a few. I now have a few stories to pass onto to friends compliments of Ian. Seeing Abbey Road Studio and Apple Corps on Savile Row where the Beatles last played together was very cool. There were only a few stops so if you’re not very mobile, then this is the tour for you !
Ian was our guide and he was fun and knew so much. He made the tour captivating and really enjoyable.
We enjoyed the tour very much. Our guide Clive was very knowledgeable and made the experience fun. He shared great stories and interesting insights on a great selection of sights. There was plenty of opportunity for interaction and questions. The choice of stops was well-planned from both content and pacing standpoints. We appreciated Clive's sense of hospitality and recommend this experience!
Good guide but ran longer than I thought. Was battling a cold and being in a freezing travel van for 4 hours did not help, so sadly I couldn't enjoy it as much as the rest of the group.
The Guide was very knowledgeable about Rock History of London and presented it well. We stopped at all of the Beatles locations we were looking to visit.
Great tour, Clive was VERY knowledgeable! Lots of information given that I was not aware of. We got to walk the famous Abby Road and all the traffic stopped for us.
Clive was wonderful, really knew his stuff, as well as current history. Totally enjoyed the experience. The bus driver was great, maying hair pin turns and going down small London streets.
Very entertaining. Guide has an extensive knowledge of the rock and roll world in London from the 60s on.
Fun. Our guide Ian made it. Hard to take pics when just driving by so it was best to just listen and be in the moment.
Great fun - Ian was great with rock and roll history! So wonderful to have been able to do this tour!
Ian was excellent so was the tour driver navigating the crazy London traffic people were friendly very very informative
We learned so much from our guide. He was very knowledgeable of the history of London music, artists and places. Such amazing history here in England.
Great afternoon cruising around London with 3 short stops! Our guide was knowledgeable and helpful in getting us to our next destination after the tour. Very enjoyable experience!
Super-comfortable bus ride, chock full of interesting rock legend info, replete with site-specific anecdotes and more! Loved spending the afternoon on Ian Luck's tour!
The wealth of knowledge from the guide was unbelievable. There are not a lot of stops so a lot of the tour you are mainly inside the vehicle and the guide is kind of narrating as you go. Some of the spots are more so passing by - which worked out for me! - but just to give a heads up. We did get to go inside Abbey Rd studios and this was a highlight because I was able to buy a book about the history of the studio itself. And the actual abbey road crossing is quite busy but our tour guide has been training for this his whole life because somehow he got the perfect shot of me crossing with nobody in the background even though it felt like I was constantly inside a crowd. 10/10 on the photo skills which is honestly so appreciated when you are solo traveling. He also had these pictures of different bands with his info on them that he gave to us depending on who we were interested in. It was a nice touch.
This tour was very worth it. Our guide, Clive, was fantastic. He seemed to know everything about the British rock music scene. He even filmed us walking across Abbey Road! Learned a lot and had a great time doing it.
