This small-group walking tour is the perfect way to explore the history of the Beatles in a part of London that has the highest concentration of musical history in the country. The tour perfectly complements the magical mystery bus tour which departs later in the afternoon and visits different locations.
During the walk your fab guide will take you through tiny side streets, highlighting easy-to-miss sites; point out stunning theatres and legendary music venues, and even show you locations from photoshoots and videos so you can walk in the footsteps of the Beatles, all the while entertaining you with insightful commentary. Discover the discrete recording studio which was used by the Beatles and other rock Gods including Queen, Elton John and Rod Stewart to name but a few. The Beatles music is loved by millions, so it’s no surprise that the Beatles have generated billions of pounds over the last 60 years. They’re big business, so a section of the tour will look at the business behind the Beatles, including their spin off companies and royalties. Music lovers will know that Soho was the beating heart of the music industry in the 1960s, so naturally, the Beatles spent a lot of time here. One of their hangouts was the world-famous jazz club Ronnie Scott’s.
Gaze up at the roof where the Beatles performed live together for the last time in a rather respectable street in Mayfair.
Hear about John and Yoko’s first meeting at Yoko’s art exhibition and how it turned out to be an enduring love affair between the two of them.
