Overview

Our slogging gang is looking for new recruits, so join Edward Shelby, a distant cousin of the real-life Birmingham gang, as he shows you around the city and teaches you the ropes of being a gang member in the late 19th century. Find out what it was like to walk in the streets the slogging gangs ruled at night and explore parts of the city not covered on our daytime tour. How did the gangs use the canals? How did alcohol add to the gang problem. What did the city do to try to control it? On this tour, you will discover the answers and experience four unique drinking establishments, from real ale pubs to gin palaces and cocktail bars. Participate in some fun activities, such as drinking games and a pub quiz, while learning about the impact of gangs and alcohol on the city. Our night tour is perfect for hen and stag nights, birthdays, team-building events, or a great way to meet new people.

Our tour guide, Edward was a bright and personable guy. He made the tour fun and interesting. As we walked, Edward gave us some of the history of Birmingham as it relates to Peaky Blinders. Along the way we stopped at three pubs and a gin house. I enjoyed meeting the other “tourists” touring Birmingham with a Peaky Blinders. Well done.

Great tour!! Edward is awesome Great balance between the show and the true history of the area. The stops were fun and accommodating. Would recommend for an evening out in Birmingham. Trivia at the end was fun after a few pints.
