Itinerary

  • The Viaduct Tavern

    Visit this old Gin Palace where in the cellars you might find cells for prisoners awaiting execution at the old prison next door.

    15 minutes

  • Crown Tavern

    You may recognise this grand old pub from television and films, it also has a backdrop in a distinctly Dickensian part of London. Perhaps most importantly it is said that this is the spot where Lenin and Stalin may have first met.

    30 minutes

    The hardest to find pub in London which actually somehow be in Cambridge! Once the haunting ground of Queen Elizabeth I

    30 minutes

Fantastic!

Published on Nov, 2024

My wife and I had a wonderful time on this tour. Super interactive and very knowledgeable. Would highly recommend it.

London Pub Tour

Published on Sep, 2024

Stephan added so much color and knowledge to the tour. It was a great experience start to finish. We got to see many different neighborhoods and pubs that we never would have found on our own.

Can't recommend enough - do this tour!

Published on Sep, 2024

Fabulous tour! A must-do if you have a free afternoon in London and are interested in some unique tid-bits and great storytelling! Stephen was an incredible guide who immediately fit in our group and felt like a friend; plus he always had a lively story to share with us over a pint! Would highly recommend this tour (or any of the Ye Olde England themed tours) and will be doing it again on my next trip to London!

City and Pub Tour

Published on Jul, 2024

This is a must for anyone coming to London. Steven is a fun and energetic character who knows everything about the city and beyond, answering any question I had to throw at him. Tours and history aren’t the most boring things in the world for me but it isn’t something I typically look forward to. However, looking back on the trip this was a highlight. Being able to see/tour the city and different pubs with a local was great. A lot of pubs we went to we would’ve never found on our own. Thanks Steven!

Fantastic Pub Tour!!!

Published on Apr, 2024

What an incredible tour!!! Our guide Stephen took us to five pubs that were fantastic with each one having a very unique history (and the beers were great too!). My favorite was the Mayflower, the oldest pub on the River Thames! Stephen is incredibly knowledgeable on London's history and shared many interesting stories about the pubs and the surrounding area. I would recommend this tour to anyone and we look forward to booking another tour with him next year!
