We arrived in Brixton and the vidi guides app didn't work. It kept closing when we tried listening to the audio.

Paid the money for the self guided audio tour. No email with a link or file of the audio tour arrived via email. There were no instructions on the booking either. Attempts to contact the vendor via message and phone were not successful. Therefore, no self guided audio tour was ever taken.
DO NOT book this tour, I believe it is a scam.

I never did the tour as it was totally unclear how to start it once I got to Brixton. So my booking was a waste of money.

I love these tours! I was living in London for a couple months and ended up finding these self pace audio tours out of luck. I got the London city pack. Each one’s gave a historical and modern understanding of the area I was exploring. The hosts are fun, engaging and interesting to listen to. My favorites were the brixton and south bank tour. One of the best purchases!!

Fantastic experience of Brixton!! The audio tour was such an authentic way to explore brixton and it’s music and give you a great insight into the history and culture of brixton. Really high quality immersive experience with on screen videos and photos of all the top spots and how it used to look. Couldn’t recommend it more for anyone who wants to see the real brixton through a top quality tour!
