Great historic London Pub Tour
Jonte22, 19-06-2022
Very interesting tour in the old streets of London Lots of information of minor and major historical events that took place in the center of London Beer and other drinks was specifically recommended to us for each pub from its history and specialty. The guide Mike was excellent and made the evening to one of the highlights of our vacation in London.
10/10 would recommend :)

Tours with Mike was amazing. (We went to two different ones). He told us a lot of stories not only from history but also from the present. As a fan of Harry Potter, he added a couple of interesting things from the places we passed.
Best tour guide
