Sam was an excellent tour guide for our rock n roll tour of London. Did an excellent job showing us the sites and giving us the history of various spots around London. Sam parked close to the attractions which was important to us because we weren’t very mobile. He even took us to a lunch spot after our tour which we appreciated
Thank you for taking the time to leave such a positive review. I’m really glad to hear Sam looked after you so well on your Rock ’n’ Roll tour. Being able to park close to key spots and adapt the day to suit guests’ mobility is something our guides are very mindful of, so it’s great to know that made a difference. The lunch stop is a lovely extra touch, and I’m pleased it rounded off the day so well for you.
This tour was great! We really enjoyed our guide Alan. He was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about music history. We got to explore off-the-beaten path spots that we would have missed on our own. We never felt rushed, and we have plenty of time for photos and questions.
Thank you so much for your lovely review! We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed your tour with Alan – he really does have a gift for bringing music history to life. It’s great that you had the chance to discover those hidden spots and enjoy the tour at your own pace. We’ll be sure to pass on your kind words to Alan – he’ll be thrilled! If you ever find yourself back in London, we’d love to welcome you on another of our themed music or sightseeing tours – there’s always more to discover.
Sensational way to see the parts of London that one could easily miss. The actual tour skews Beatles, Stones, Bowie...but Sam's sensational stories run the gamut from Punk to Glam and Rock to Blues as he points out where a number of British (and American) bands played their first gig or recorded seminal albums (or spent time in jail). It was a great way to start our London experience. Thanks, Sam!
Thank you so much for this fabulous review! We’re so glad Sam’s musical storytelling hit all the right notes and set the perfect tone for your London adventure. At Visit London Taxi Tours, we love weaving together the city’s rich history with stories that resonate – and Sam’s rock ‘n’ roll knowledge always makes for a brilliant tour. Hope to see you again for more tunes and tales next time you’re in town! 🎸🎸🎸❤️
My 16 year old son and I had a great time with Adam! We did a three hour private tour and easily could have done three more. Not only did he show us awesome locations around the city but had amazing stories to go with them. Would highly recommend for any music fans!

Sam knows the London rock & roll scene and history well and made the day thoroughly enjoyable. Would highly recommend this tour. Abbey Road is the major highlight but there are so many other musicians covered, from Pink Floyd to Jimi Hendrix.
