London Music Tours

Adam writes…

Every year I like to add something new to the London Music Tours programme. One of the fun things about this time of year is planning and scheduling new tours and ideas for the year ahead. It’s also interesting to look back and see what worked well and what needs improving*.

This time last year I had high hopes for the Rock’n’Roll Explorer Day. I thought it would be a fun tour. One year on I’m delighted to say that is was not only fun but also very much a roaring success – all six tours sold out!

Huge thanks to everyone who joined me. Particular thanks to Michele at the glorious Eel Pie Island Museum. Every time we visit we get such a warm welcome. And a year’s membership to the museum is included as part of your tour ticket.

New Dates…

I’ve scheduled this post to go out on my social media channels just as the last tour of 2024 leaves Waterloo Station to announce that… the first date for 2025 is now open for booking. Visit the Rock’n’Roll Explorer Day page to grab your place. New dates will be added very soon…

Here are a few reviews and snaps from a glorious spring and summer 2024…

Thanks once again to everyone who joins me and supports my tours by leaving reviews. Your generosity of spirit in leaving such positive feedback has given such a boost to my little one-man-band tour guiding outfit.

Our next big adventure is The Monday Night Music History Club, 6 virtual tours for the winter months. Episode 1 deals with the history of record shops. Membership is just £24 ($31) and includes discounts to a few of my new walking tours  in 2025 plus priority booking for my small group tours. Info and membership HERE.

*At this time of year, when I’m reviewing the year just past and planning the year ahead, I live to hear from you. Where do we want to go next? Fill in the form below to give me your suggestion…
