A walking tour going beyond the music* to find one of the most mythologised, most mis-represented and perhaps most misunderstood decades of the 20th Century…

*Where sex and drugs go, rock’n’roll usually follows – and we will certainly be entertaining Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Jimi Hendrix and The Beatles along the way.

But we will also widen the search… from sex and drugs and rock’n’roll to include… sex and drugs and politics and fashion and espionage and art and photography and architecture and the class system… and rock’n’roll.

A little bit of something for everyone!*

*Unless you are under 16, of course. This tour comes with a Parental Guidance Warning.
