About
Come Together Right Now and join this Beatles London walking tour. The tour will wind through Soho’s vibrant alleys and side street looking out for hidden studios, murals, album cover photos, and much more. In addition to the Swinging 60s of Soho and Carnaby Street, you’ll also find out how the Beatles went up in the world, and what they thought about it!
From John Lennon ‘shumble’ days as toilet attendant (yes you’ll get to see the toilet in question, no you can’t go in. Sorry. Members only!) to telling members of the Royal family to “rattle your jewellery” this tour will keep you entertained with anecdotes from start to finish.
In addition to talking about the Beatles song, the tour covers the business behind the music industry and how complicated it can be working out who owns what and how much they get paid!
During the tour, you’ll stop by the art gallery where John Lennon met the artist, and the love of his life, Yoko Ono. What was it about her art that drew him to Ono? You’ll find out on the tour.
