Venue entrance and an English-only guide are included; food and drinks are paid separately, so the booking covers the pub visits rather than a round. 4.99 from 2355 reviews at €38 per person for 2h 30m. ## Overview Indulge in four unique, local historic pubs, as you embark on a captivating journey through the heart of Soho, where music, mischief and history, intertwine. Explore the hallowed grounds where the Beatles recorded Hey Jude, The Rolling Stones played their first ever gig, and the site of Jimi Hendrix's last ever performance. See where Mozart lived. Yes, The Mozart! Drink a beer in the pub where The Who were barred for life, and even a pub where Dumbledore found himself in a rowdy brawl! – tales that will captivate your imagination. Discover Soho’s diverse historic tapestry and iconic venues, immersing yourself in the neighbourhood's infamous past and present. Search Soho's lesser-known corners, once frequented by luminaries like Karl Marx, Casanova, and Marilyn Monroe while hearing tales of modern visitors like Jason Mamoa - AKA Aquaman - and The future King and Queen William and Kate. If you are seeking an extraordinary off-the-beaten-path adventure, then this is for you! ## Before you book - Meeting point: The Winged Statue of Eros at Piccadilly… - Starts 14:00: one departure a day - Food not included: bring or buy your own - Age 18+: minimum age to join ## Key facts - Price: from €38 per person - Duration: 2h 30m - Rating: 4.99/5 from 2355 reviews (collected from Guidekin & Viator & Tripadvisor) - Free cancellation (see policy below) - Recommended by 100% of travellers (share of four- and five-star reviews) - Operator: Experience Local Ltd ## What's included - Entrance to venues - Local English Speaking Guide ## Not included - Food and Drinks - Hotel pickup and drop-off - Gratuities ## Itinerary 1. **Soho** (2h 30m) - Welcome to London’s famous Soho - a mixture of Broadway, Amsterdam, Vegas and Hollywood all rolled into one.
