We had a blast with Kevin. He took us to multiple rock and roll historical spots that any other person would likely walk by without knowing the amazing history behind the spot. We also got a general tour of multiple classic London neighborhoods that included basic history of the neighborhood. Strongly recommend this tour for anyone interested in music or London pop culture history in general!

Thru the years, I have been on different tours in different cities, and a good tour guide can make all the difference. My daughter and I were so lucky to have Kevin Pearman of Ye Olde England Tours guide us on the absolute best, most memorable journey thru Camden Town, Abbey Road, the Royal Arcade, Regent Street, and Soho. HIs knowledge about the London music scene and budding careers of so many artists was extensive, only surpassed by his knowledge of the overall history of London. He was so generous with his time and in sharing his knowledge. You can tell when someone is passionate about they do and Kevin exudes a passion for all history of London -- I wholeheartedly recommend Kevin Pearman of Ye Olde England Tours to anyone visiting London and wish I had known him before we booked any other tour in London. Thank you, Kevin from two grateful Texas fans!

Probably the best our we have ever done! Kevin gave us a personalized tour with not only cool Music facts and spots that most people would pass right over but really was a wealth of knowledge on so many different subjects and London't history. Never learned so much from one tour before. I highly recommend!

Kevin was AMAZING! Best tour I have ever been on and I have booked many through Tripadvisor and La Vacanza Travel. We ended up with a private tour which I highly recommend. I had taken a different tour the day before with a different company and ended up being one of 35+ and we could barely hear half the information without jumping to the front of the pack. Kevin was so informative and kind and gave us not only a great Music tour with sights I am positive you won't be able to see with a big group, but he also pointed out many other great facts of London. His tour was one of the most memorable and fun parts of our stay in London.
