London's classic rock story, from Chelsea to Abbey Road
London's rock history is scattered across ordinary streets, studios and former homes. This coach tour links them into one half-day story.
A specialist guide takes you through South Kensington, Chelsea, Kensington, Notting Hill and St John's Wood, with stories of the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, Queen, Pink Floyd, Eric Clapton and punk.
The finale is a walk across the Abbey Road crossing and a look at the studio from outside. No studio entry.
