Overview

Do you have what it takes to join a Birmingham Slogging gang? If so we are looking for new recruits so come and join our guide, Edward Shelby, a member of the slogging gangs. He will show you the city & teach you the ways of the gangs & how the reality differs from their portrayal in popular culture.. This tour from the award winning company, Top Tours Global, is centred around the historical & cultural aspects of the Birmingham slogging gangs. You learn about how the gangs terrorised Birmingham in the late 19th & early 20th century. This tour will explore gang members such as Billy Kimber, Alfie Solomon & the Italian Mob. This two-hour tour begins & ends at Aston University, with parking available & goes deep into historical gang territories. The tour will have two stops at local pubs where guests are welcome to buy a drink whilst hearing more about the Birmingham gangs of the last two centuries. City and restaurant recommendations are available on our website Toptoursglobal.com
