I went on this tour with my mum and as we both really enjoy the old rock legends we had a great time being toured around by Steve, Steve is very knowledgeable in this area, we learnt so much and seen so much, we did the shorter tour but would definetely come back and do a longer tour as there was just so much to see and learn. Steve really the made experience so much fun, i was a little sick in the stomach for the tour (unfortunately) but we had a good laugh about spewing on abbey road! Hey I'm sure the Beatles did it once or twice there right? Anyways thanks for being so great about everything and so checking in on me the next day! If you love rock and roll and wanna see and learn some awesome things then I highly recommend doing this tour with Steve!

I can't say enough good things about this tour! Steve was so knowledgeable about all things London and not just music. He got in touch with us ahead of time to insure that the pick up details were all lined up and was even able to add a favorite band of my husband into the mix. Run don't walk to sign up for this tour!

What a morning! Thoroughly enjoyed our Rock Cab Tour with the best in the business. Steve was full of cool vibes, great energy and loads of rock n roll knowledge. Easy to communicate with and very accommodating. There’s no better rock cab tour than booking with Steve as your guide.
