Walking Tour of Beatles

Barbara_C, Apr 2026
A lot of walking!!! You have to be ready for a busy couple of hours. Our guide took us on a bus (which we had to pay for without advanced knowledge) and he left is without transportation back!

A large amount of walking.

JAY_R, Apr 2026
A great deal of walking at a rather fast pace. A large amount of trivia presented, some of it a bit boring. 2 1/2 hours of fast walking without any consideration given for a rest or bathroom break. Tour guide was very pleasant, as well as very knowledgeable and eager to give as much information as he could.

Recommended tour

PATRICIA_R, Feb 2026
Stop and walk. It was a tolerable distance. Tour guide had great knowledge of the Beatles and related info of the city and music.

Great. Very enjoyable

ElaineHall, Feb 2026
There’s a fee for bus ride during this tour. Rob was amazing during our tour. He explained everything g and took his time even though it was raining.

London Beatkes

The tour was great to a point. Our main plan was to see Abbey Road but my wife took I’ll halfway through the tour so we had to leave early and missed out on Abbey Rosd - but the rest was great..

There's a lot of walking. If you are a slow walker as I am due to using walking poles it was difficult to keep up with the guide. We feel behind several times which made it unpleasant.

Good Beatles

Just OK Beatles tour.

Mary_N, Aug 2025
Pretty choppy. A lot of walking in silence between points of interest. Some locations with very minimal Beatles references. Tour guide not able to answer non Beatles related neighborhood questions. Definitely had a specific, narrow knowledge base.

Great guide

William_T, Aug 2025
Great guide, Charlie was fantastic. More walking than expected but all level. Photos at abbey road were challenging.

Beatles Walking Tour Marlybone and Abbey Road

Amanda_H, Jul 2025
Very interesting stories that I had not heard before. Michael, our tour guide was very knowledgeable and shared rock and roll related stories as well as the Beatles. Be prepared to stand for some time at each stop as the stories are told. I enjoyed this but others may struggle with the standing.

Highly Recommended

Leo_K, May 2025

the tour guide was very knowledgeable on the Beatles with good history of their locations within London and other singers and groups from the 60's a muss tour for any fan of that generation.

Magical Mystery Beatles Walking Tour

kenneth_S, Sep 2024
Spencer had so much knowledge about the Beatles as well as other music groups He was not only informative but at times quite funny. He always made sure the group was accounted for I would highly recommend Spencer and this walking tour

Not Worth the Time

Paul_C, Sep 2024
The tour was too long. There was too much walking , not enough sites to see. Over 4 hours and not a facility break. Too much talking! Large group , hard to hear, should have had a portable microphone .

Awesome!

JanetL_R, Aug 2024
Guide was knowledgeable about everything Beatles! Very nice tour! Can’t go without ur fix of the Beatles

A Highlight of our time in London

Shannon_B, Aug 2024
We really enjoyed this walking tour of Beatles history, and if you are lucky enough to get Spenser as your guide it is a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Loved the experience and walking in the footsteps of the Beetles

Daniel_M, Aug 2024
What a great tour. Our guide was informative and funny. Loved hearing all the stories and seeing the history of the Beetles!

Walk in the Beatles Footsteps

Joan_H, Jul 2024
What a great and interesting tour! Spencer Gibbins was our guide and he was actually there with the Beatles in their early days. He told us stories of what it was really like in Hamburg and showed us places they filmed A Hard Days Night. I would highly recommend this tour for any Beatles fan.

Meena_C, Jul 2024
Abbey road, homes of McCartney & Lennon were the most memorable. Also interesting to see were scenes from the movies. Having a guide who had first hand knowledge of the Beatles was very helpful.

Marla_J, Jul 2024
Excellent tour! We learned a lot of Beatles history we didn’t know. Highly recommend this tour to any fans.

Fun Beatles tour.

Linda_E, Jun 2024
All of it. Spencer was awesome. We went on several tours on our visit to London, but this by far was the best. I am a huge Beatles fan and Spencer was the perfect person to take the tour with.

Not a great experience

Karen_H, Jun 2024
Too much walking for nothing. Wasn’t told needed a CC that touched or an Oyster card for the nasty, hot bus. Too long. Then the guide hyped his book. Tour needs to be condensed, a small van used to get around. Sorry-wasn’t as fun as noted.

Beatles

Deborah_S, Jun 2024
I didn’t like that 44 people had to board a double decker bus hope we could all fit on one and pay. Think all should be included really didn’t like that and there was no bathroom break and at end guide couldn’t even tell me where to find a bathroom

Beatles London walking tour

Michael_C, Jun 2024
We had the pleasure and surprise our tour guide was Spencer. He was absolutely brilliant and we all enjoyed his stories because he new and had worked with the fab 4. Wished we had more time with him. Hopefully someone else happens to have the honor to have him as their tour guide in future tours.
