A must do tour while visiting London!
Simply amazing! Best day we’ve had in London! Our guide, Brian knew everything about any thing we asked about. Brian was very easy to work with and listened well to what we wanted out of our tour. Honestly, we wish we had another 6 hour day with him because there is so much more to London than we ever realized. If you are looking for a London tour covering the highlights with a rock and roll focus THIS IS THE TOUR you want!
Response from the operator: Hi Kathy and Grey. Thank- you for taking the time to write your detailed review and I am so glad you enjoyed our 6 hour tour together bringing in Highlights, Hidden London, Beatles and Rock N' Roll sites. This was a great day to tour with wonderful sunshine, blue skies and most important of all no traffic. I hope you both enjoy the rest of your vacation especially the magical City of Liverpool. Hope to see you and your friends one day soon. Best regards Bryan.

Rock and Roll Magic
Had a great time with Bryan on the tour! Thoroughly recommend
Response from the operator: Hi Lanys. Thank-you for leaving your review and I am so glad you enjoyed the tour. London is rich in music history with many rock n' Roll sites. This is a great way to see the sites in an iconic London Black Taxi with a glass roof getting close up and also taking some small walks into some of the sites. Black taxis have special parking and use of the bus lanes which is vital in moving around London. We hope to see you and your friends soon. Best regards Bryan and all the team at London Sightseeing Tours.

Morris was fantastic!
My mother and I went on a tour with Morris. He was great! Tailored the tour to exactly what we wanted to see. I definitely recommend.
Response from the operator: Hi Kara. Thank-you taking the time to write your review. We are so glad you enjoyed the tour. Morris said he really enjoyed touring you. He said you especially enjoyed The Clissold Arms pub which is a shrine to the Kinks. We will send a copy of your review to Morris. Thank-you for using us for tge second time. Hope to see you and your friends one day soon. Regards Bryan, Morris and all the team at London Sightseeing Tours

Rock & Roll Comes Alive
Bryan is an absolutely incredible guide. His knowledge of both the history of London and the rock & roll scene is unbelievable. He took us to all the hidden gems connected to London’s other royalty - rock icons like The Beatles, The Stones, David Bowie and more. To top it off, he’s the nicest guy ever. If you have an opportunity to take one of Bryan’s tours, you won’t be disappointed.
Response from the operator: Hi Bonita and Larry. Thank-you for taking the time to write a fabulous review and it was a real pleasure to meet you and guide you through our great city. Your enthusiasm was fantastic and this really made the tour extra special for me. I just loved telling you all the history especially the rock n roll sites. I really hope enjoyed the next day and I hope to see you and your friends one day soon. Best regards Bryan and all the team at London Sightseeing Tours.

Fascinating and Fun!
This tour was worth every penny. Not only did we learn about London rock and roll history and famous people but we visited several beautiful London neighborhoods. Our guide Stephen was humorous, kind and knowledgeable. He helped us get lots of great photos and was very accommodating. Also I would highly recommend this over a walking tour as we covered several different locations and riding in a London black cab with sky roof was an extra bonus. Plenty of stops to get out and look around.
Response from the operator: Hi Susan. Thank-you for taking the time to write your review and we are so glad you enjoyed the tour. Steve is a guide of great quality and has a wealth of experience. Rock N' Roll is one of his favourite subjects. We will make sure he gets a copy of your review. We hope to see you and your friends one day soon. Regards Bryan, Steve and all the team at London Sightseeing Tours.

Why this scores 55
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
London Private Rock and Roll Tour with Pick Up: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for London.
How much does London Private Rock and Roll Tour with Pick Up cost?
+
Prices start at $460 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in London usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does London Private Rock and Roll Tour with Pick Up take?
+
Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in London is not rushed.
Is London Private Rock and Roll Tour with Pick Up worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 55 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 8 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in London, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule London Private Rock and Roll Tour with Pick Up?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is London Private Rock and Roll Tour with Pick Up suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book London Private Rock and Roll Tour with Pick Up?
+
Around 3 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in London can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in London and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does London Private Rock and Roll Tour with Pick Up start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central London within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in London?
+
London's best attractions split cleanly: the museums are free and need no booking, so the paid market is about views, theatre and getting out of the city for a day. That makes value scoring unusually important here, and the Outty Ranking penalises anything charging premium prices for access you could get for nothing. On Outty we rank every London experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Soho Music & Historic Pubs Tour, London Small Group Tour of Historical Pubs, The Great British Rock and Roll Walking Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit London?
+
May to September for long evenings, December for the Christmas markets. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in London?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
