The city hums before you even leave the kerb: a taxi siren fades, a distant guitar riff from a busker threads through the air, and your driver eases the van into London traffic. Over the next three to four hours you'll glide between famous sites — Soho pubs where John Lennon and Jimi Hendrix drank, the Abbey Road zebra crossing that still asks to be walked, the former Marquee Club location, and recording addresses like Trident Studios — each stop a short step out of the car and into a slice of music history.
