Adam writes… This year the Early May Bank Holiday falls on Monday 4th May. As a London tour guide, your Bank Holiday is my working day, and a great pleasure it is to show you around on your day off.

Bank holiday weekends are always busy times for tour guides, so if you’re planning a guided walking tour as part of your day off, please give me as much notice as you can. This post contains all my most up-to-date availability for the Early Spring Bank Holiday weekend 2026 (updated 31st March 2026).

If you’re planning ahead, please find all of my bank holiday availability right up to the beginning of January 2027 HERE.

Private tours are available the whole year round. And I can put together a bespoke tour for you at no extra charge. Use the form at the bottom of this post to get in touch and start the ball rolling.

As usual, you can find my non-music-themed tours at the famous London Walks company’s website HERE.

Enjoy the holiday whatever you get up to!
