Local guiding is included, but alcoholic drinks are paid for separately. 5 from 234 reviews at €38 per person for 2h 30m. ## Overview Visit pubs that time forgot, out of sight, nestled among cobbled backstreets, where the greatest of British characters used to live, work and play. From London's most notorious local pub, where gangsters once mingled with lords and ladies, to the pub where the Beatles could secretly have a beer, away from fanatic fans - the same pub where visiting superstars such as Bradd Pitt and Lady Gaga go for fish and chips! See the quaint mews houses where great artists once lived, like James Bond creator Ian Flemming and Bond actor Sean Connery. Hear legendary tales of Frankenstein writer Mary Shelley and enter London's most haunted pub! The stories surrounding this pub will send shivers down your spine. Enjoy the pub where Prince William can be found and where Kate Middleton spent the night before their historic wedding. Feast your eyes on classic architecture and stunning views that capture the essence of London's hidden treasures. ## Before you book - Meeting point: Your guide will be standing directly… - Starts 14:00: one departure a day - Age 18+: minimum age to join ## Key facts - Price: from €38 per person - Duration: 2h 30m - Rating: 5.0/5 from 234 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 - Local veteran expert guide ## Not included - Alcoholic Beverages ## Itinerary 1. **Belgravia** (2h 30m) - Guests will explore the unique neighbourhood of Belgravia in all of its secret glory.
