## Itinerary

1. **Savile Row** (12m) - This is the first stop on the tour. It is our policy not to tell you about this or any other stop (there's about ten in total) because that takes away the surprise. It's better to think of our time together as a Magical Mystery Tour—the 'mystery' being how such a small corner...
2. **Still not going to say what happened here - but it's amazing** (12m) - Rock 'n' roll!
3. **Carnaby Street** (12m) - Still not going to say what happened here - but it's amazing. Rock 'n' roll!
4. **Still not going to say what happened here - but it's amazing** (12m) - Rock 'n' roll!
5. **Wardour Street** (12m) - Still not going to say what happened here - but it's amazing. Rock 'n' roll!
6. **Still not going to say what happened here - but it's amazing** (12m) - Rock 'n' roll!
7. **Still not going to say what happened here - but it's amazing** (12m) - Rock 'n' roll!
8. **This is the end of the tour** (12m) - And what an end! But still not going to say what happened here - but it's amazing. Rock 'n' roll! What we can say, though, is that you have just had the most amazing time and made some amazing memories. Yes, your feet might ache a little, but what a walk!
