An area which was the hub of the swinging sixties. Clubs, bars, entertainment and fashion were the order of the day and if you wanted to be with the ‘In Crowd’, this was where it was at. You’ll get to see where The Beatles hung out after hours, performed on a family variety show for the first time igniting the fuse of Beatlemania.

Paul was very informative and the tour was wonderful. We were able to see pictures and videos that went along with our tour.
The tour was great! Lots of interesting information on the Fab Four. Visiting Abbey Road was so neat! My favorite part. Paul is full of information, interactive, kind and fun!!
Thank you, Kim. It was a pleasure meeting you all and sharing the Beatles knowledge with you. Kindest regards, Paul Williams
Outstanding tour. Paul was very knowledgeable about the Beatles. The tour was a lot of fun. We had 4 people on tour and Paul helped us recreate the album cover crossing Abbey Road.
Thank you, Alda. It was a pleasure showing all the rich Beatles history. Kindest regards, Paul Williams
This tour was a fabulous walk down the Beatles “Memory Lane”. We saw lots of iconic spots and our tour director, Paul, had lots of info and anecdotes to add- making it even more alive for us. He helped us take great photos recreating some of the great photos of the Beatles era. It was a great adventure!
Thank you, Sarah for the great review. Kindest regards, Paul Williams
Paul did a great job of showing us all the big spots and secret spots of the Beatles amongst other musicians for the era. He was extremely knowledgeable and fun!!! Highly recommend. My abbey road picture with my adult children is now one of my biggest treasures
Thank you, Carol. It was an absolute pleasure meeting you all and sharing all the amazing history of The Beatles and their contemporaries. Kindest regards, Paul Willams
Paul was a treat. Knew so much and made the experience special and also talked about other interesting facts about London. Well-rounded tour
Thank you Brenda. It was my pleasure. Kindest regards, Paul Williams
This tour was soooo much fun! I never realized how much there was to see relating to the Beatles in London. Paul is an amazing tour guide. So full of knowledge and interesting facts. Since it's a private tour it had such a person feel. Getting out at certain locations and taking pics was a treat, especially Abbey Road. My whole family loved it, especially my mom the biggest Beatles fan.
Thank you Jenna. It was wonderful to meet you all. I really appreciate the kind words. Kindest regards, Paul Williams
The Beatles tour was an experience we will never forget. The highlight was not only the tour itself, but our guide Paul. We have already booked countless tours and city tours, but Paul is by far the best guide we've ever had. Super friendly, top organized, great original taxi and so helpful. Thank you so much for everything.
Vielen Dank, Herman, Es war mir eine Freude, die Geschichte der Beatles mit euch allen zu teilen. Kindest regards, Paul Williams
My wife and I spent a wonderful half day visiting Beatles sites and and recounting the group’s history with Paul Williams. Paul is engaging, courteous and made sure we got the most out of our tour. Stops at Abbey Road Studio with the obligatory street crossing, Sir Paul’s House, the Savile Row site of the Beatles’ last live performance, and the Marylebone train station where the opening scene of “A Hard Day’s Night” was shot assured that the day met all our Bucket List criteria. To top it off, Paul took photos of us at every stop. We would do this tour again in a heartbeat. Yeah, Yeah, Yeah!
Thank you Stephen for the excellent feedback. Kindest regards, Paul Williams
Paul Williams is a fantastic tour guide, offering insight into the places the Beatles frequented around London, including various homes, recording studios, performance venues, and more. Experiencing these places via a smooth black cab ride was very enjoyable, and there was ample time to make stops and walk outside to explore areas of note. Paul also shared a variety of historical photographs along the way, as well as stories relating to other music legends in the Beatles orbit, plus bits of London city history. Overall, this was a fabulous tour worthy of the fab four!
Thank you, Matt. It was wonderful sharing London’s rich Beatles history with yourself and your mother. I hope you enjoyed Madam Tussauds and the Liverpool leg of your Beatles adventure. Kindest regards, Paul Williams
