I recommend this tour led by Alan with great enthusiasm. We did a few tours in European cities Oct 14-28 and this was at the top of our list. Alan was a superb tour guide. He brought a level of insight to each stop that the five members of our tour group truly appreciated. He gave us valuable insight into the Royal family’s history of where they shopped for flowers, hats, groceries and wine. He literally led us through back alleys into hole in the wall places several hundred years old. We heard insightful anecdotal stories of who built and maintained the pubs. More importantly he gave us a sense of the spirit of each pub we visited and brought the spirit of the pub to life in historical context. As a historian and experienced traveler I really appreciated that. My wife and I agreed this was a special tour and we urge others to consider asking for Alan. You will find it on AirBnB under “Experiences” as we did. Sign up for it you won’t regret it!
Henry was our tour guide and he was absolutely amazing. We had a lot of fun and get to see the good bars. Thanks to him. He deserves more than five points.
Great information about the history of the pubs and the British royalties' involvement with them! Very interesting. And the beer was great too!
Myself and my husband had an amazing afternoon on Saturday with luke despite the rubbish weather we had alot of fun and learned alot of history that we didn't know! And with great drink recommendations...luke was so engaging and a great laugh... Will most definitely be going on another tour when we're back in London 😁
The pub tour was very interesting. Good mix of history and relaxing in a few pubs across the area. Definitely recommend it.
We had a great time on the pub tour with Carlos! He was a fantastic host, friendly, welcoming, and very knowledgeable. We especially enjoyed hearing all the historic stories and anecdotes Carlos shared along the way, which made the experience even more interesting and fun. We had a great time discovering the pubs and learning more about the history behind them. We would definitely recommend this experience!
Luke made this experience one of my favorite things to do in London. He was friendly and shared some great stories. Our small group of 5 followed his suggested beers and we all thoroughly enjoyed all of them. We never felt rushed or uncomfortable and were able to thoroughly enjoyed this experience. I definitely would recommend it and especially cool hand Luke as your guide, you won’t regret it! Cheers!!!
This was absolutely the best way to visit pubs that are off the beaten path, very safe, our guide was absolutely amazing and a lot of fun to be with! We were with Luke and he was Brilliant!
Danny gave an excellent tour full of fun pub stops and interesting history! We definitely recommend signing up for this on your trip!
What can I say...I was lucky enough to get Henry for the Rock and Roll tour and this tour in the same week! I found out he's both a rock star and a royal savant in the same week. Loved the visits, the stories, and Henry's style again. Just book it...fantastic
Tom had great stories and did a great job with all our questions. He had great and beer recommendations and we decided to book the Music & History pub crawl for the following day.
We had an absolutely fantastic time on this pub tour! Everything was perfectly organised, the atmosphere was great, and we really enjoyed discovering some authentic London pubs. A special thanks to Luke, who was an excellent guide – friendly, knowledgeable, funny, and genuinely passionate about what he does. He made the whole experience even better. The tour was well worth the money and a perfect way to spend an evening in London, especially with a group of friends. The size of the group was perfect - it was just us and three others. Would definitely recommend it and happily do it again!
Fantastic experience! Our guide Henry was Incredible! Every stop was extremely enjoyable and informative.
Tom was an amazing guide. Our group had a wonderful time and he kept us highly engaged with his storytelling. The selection of pubs was also fantastic. Highly recommend booking Tom for your Royal Pub Tour!
Even though we are from the UK we learnt lots of fun and interesting facts about our royal history from Henry who was a great guide ! We highly recommend this tour
Lots of fun and you have an opportunity to meet new people from different parts of the world, and gain some historic knowledge.
Ben is a very professional and knowledgeable guide. Great history on each of the four pubs. Also made other stops that were a great addition. All in the group had a wonderful time!
Danny Boy was amazing! A great and fun tour, pubs are historical
Our guide Danny Boy was very funny and had a good experience. We passed a very good moments with him and our group.
Had an excellent time on the 26th. Danny Boy was a fantastic guide (or is that Host). The historical part of the tour was brilliantly covered and there were plenty of other interesting London facts thrown in too. All the pubs were within a short walk and the tour flew by well done Danny Boy Cheers
The Royal historic pub tour was absolutely wonderful! We enjoyed a delightful mix of entertainment, learned about the various beer options, delved into some history, and had a blast. It was perfect for a Sunday afternoon. Danny boy made it especial, and I had a fantastic time. Thanks, Danny, and for the group photos. You’re a fantastic tour guide!
Our guide Henry was extraordinary. He was warm and entertaining. The tour was informative regarding pubs, but we also made stops at a few other places to learn a bit of London history.
Our guide Tom was the perfect guide. He kept the stories interesting and the tour moving along through royal and music history!!! Greatly appreciated the time he spent with us! Each pub touched a different part of London history and Tom brought that all to life! Thank you!!!
Tom was fantastic tour guide and an even better drinking buddy! The pubs were tip top choices along with the history lessons. 11/10. Highly recommend.
Tom was amazing So much fun while knowledgeable
Tom was our tour leader. He was informative & friendly. Beautiful pubs & interesting stories!
Outstanding tour, and if you can get Henry as your guide will be all the better.
Overall good tour and way to find some great pubs around St James and Mayfair. Three of the four pubs were really cool. We didn't find the Ye Grapes pub story that interesting or may have missed the connection. History of the Royals and history was interesting and preferd those over the rock and roll modern stories.
Great experience, I enjoyed learning about the history of the city through pubs. Tom was a fantastic tour guide for us.
This tour was by far my favorite during the time I was in London. Tom was an excellent guide. Extremely personable and great source of knowledge. If I had more time in London I would book more tours with this specific company AND Tom for sure! Really appreciated the extra non pub related historical references and points of interest noted.
It was really nice and we had a lot of fun and good beers. The pubs we visited and the stories that Tom told us about them were great. All in all the tour was a great start to our evening in London. Tom also gave us a lot of good tips about pubs and places we could visit after the tour. We higly recommend it!
Highly recommended and our guide, HENRY, was awesome.
Great tour - "Danny Boy" was the best. Good walking tour and very informative history.
We had a fun afternoon with Luke on our Royal Pub Walking Tour. Luke was very knowledgeable about history and his beer, gin and cider recommendations were on point! This tour was an excellent way to see historic pubs away from the tourist scene and learn a thing or two as well. All the folks we walked with were great company as well. Highly recommend this tour and if you get Luke as your guide you are definitely in good hands.
Very enjoyable tour. Our guide Luke was excellent and informative!
Danny Boy Was amazing and the whole thing was super fun.
Danny Boy sure knew a lot of stories … which thankfully he shared. I really enjoyed the tour and Danny Boy … IMO … Made the tour special.
Great pub tour with Luke. Lots of historic info with a sense of humor. Saw areas we probably would not have seen. Luke gave great recommendations on beer and gin. Would highly recommend
Fantastic experience. Special shout out to Luke who was a phenomenal host. Highly recommend
We had an excellent experience! Luke was very knowledgeable and had a great presentation. Highly recommend this event. We saw some quaint pubs and had some delicious beer!
We loved the Royal Historic Pub Tour! Our guide, Luke, was fantastic! He told us interesting and funny stories. He was charming and a wonderful conversationalist. We learned a lot and thoroughly enjoyed spending the afternoon with him.
My wife and I took part in Al's Royal Pub Tour in August and it was an unforgettable experience. Al was very outgoing and light-hearted, which led to a fun and conversational tour. Our tour was well organized and very insightful, and each of the pubs we stopped at along the way were a great experience with their own bit of history!
A big thank you to Luke, we thoroughly enjoyed our London historical pub tour. Lukes knowledge of the local area and interesting bits of information on the Royals and Rock Stars was very entertaining. A great guide, we would recommend the tour and Luke to anyone looking for a relaxed and interesting few hours while enjoying the local beers on offer.
This tour is an excellent way to get to know the St James area of London. The pubs visited were great, as was the beer recommendations. Luke was a great guide with fantastic local history.
Danny was fantastic and made the tour come alive with some amazing insights and anecdotes. Great value and fun. Scotch Club at Masons Yard the highlight for me.
In London on a boys trip and the organiser had arranged this as the mystery of event after lunch. I was quite impressed with how good it was. We had a great guide call Danny, who would, at each pub we visited, give a brief history after which we could have a drink. Great way to use up an afternoon, in a very interesting part of London.
_________Sy was great____________
We had a lot of fun on our pub tour with Ben.
We thoroughly enjoyed our pub tour! Our guide, Ben, was fantastic! He provided so much information along with a great sense of humor and much enthusiasm.
