Thank you Mark! - Ok, this tour is awesome. Mark was such a fun and knowledgeable tour guide. I was flying solo for this tour and would highly recommend this experience. Was absolutely freezing outside so a 3-4 hr warm coach ride with awesome music, stories about my favorite musicians, and tidbits about the city was the best choice. Got to see a LOT and got my Abbey Road photo. Go for it!

Rainy day on the music tour. - Good tour and timing. Guide was great, but weather was crappy and put a damper on the day. Restroom stop was at Albert Hall which was great to see, but spent an hour waiting in line to use the restroom as there was a huge graduation ceremony letting out. Not an efficient RR stop. Sites and commentary were good.
