Rock n Roll stars in Soho brought to life - A fascinating tour of Soho and the music that sprung from there. It was a small intimate group. The tour guide knew his stuff and had passion for the stories and information.

A fantastic Soho tour - Robin kept us moving with frequent stops which he packed with fascinating facts, anecdotes and jokes, backed up with visuals and music clips, (and a bonus playlist afterwards). He really knows the area, the subject and the historical context. I was taken down memory lane and I discovered lots I didn't know. I'm a Londoner. I never tire of it. I have been on different guided walks, but this was my first time with Fantastic Walks. I can honestly say that they are fantastic! I really enjoyed this one and would certainly recommend it.

Fun soho tour - Really fab walking tour. We live in London but still learned something new about venues we walk past all the time. Robin was a great guide with many facts, lived experiences and dad jokes that made the 2 hours fly by. Would definitely recommend if you are a music fan or just want to know a bit more about the history of Soho.
