Description

Embark on a rock and roll tour of London, taking a sonic journey through its musical legacy. Start at the birthplace of punk at Vivienne Westwood’s Sex Shop, where the Sex Pistols ignited their rebellion. Relive the energy of rock and roll as you pay homage to rock royalty at Jimi Hendrix’s former home and the Troubadour Club, graced by legends like Paul Simon and Charlie Watts. Feel the pulse of punk with a drive past The Nashville Room, once the stomping ground of The Damned and Subway Sect. Take a poignant detour to Samarkand Hotel, where Jimi Hendrix took his final breaths, before reveling in the creative spirit of Island Studios, where Bob Marley’s “Catch a Fire” and Led Zeppelin anthems were born. Sing along in your heart as you pass Apple Corp, the site of The Beatles’ iconic rooftop concert, and hear of their encounter with the local police station after defying police orders. Capture the perfect photo at the legendary Abbey Road Studios as you stride the same stride as the Beatles. Immerse yourself in the vibrant sounds of Camden Town, where The Dublin Castle, Jazz Cafe, and Electric Ballroom have hosted everyone from U2 to Amy Winehouse. Unravel the secrets of Tin Pan Alley, where the Sex Pistols honed their sound and Bananarama built their pop dreams. Feel the jazz pulse at Ronnie Scott’s, before ending your journey in the heart of rock royalty, Brook Street, home to Jimi Hendrix and Handel’s blue plaques.
