Another chance to come back in time and spend a couple of hours in the 1960's. This tour is Barrie's original Back in the day walk......

SOHO - Roots of the swinging sixties
The music, the clubs and the fashion

Your guide, Barrie was a teenager in the early 1960’s - a true post-war baby boomer! Growing up in London during that period was incredibly exciting and he has an infectious passion for this era & time. He remembers those days as if they were yesterday...

A walk around Waterloo, how could that be interesting? I mean there’s the station obviously and a world famous theatre, then theres one of Londons great old markets and a unique cinema that was way ahead of its time.
Still not interested ? how about the few streets that have become a conservation area as well as the site of a piece of circus history

Well thats all we’re giving away at the moment but rest assured theres so much history around Waterloo it will be a most unexpected and fascinating tour.

This walk is much more than the fascinating history of Clapham itself
its a walking tour taking us through the wonderful open space of Clapham Common, once considered south London’s Hampstead, where the rich and famous fled the crowded city. Where the grand victorian houses
overlooked the open spaces and the air was crisp and clear, yet still only a short journey back the the smoke and poverty of London town.

Our wonderful Jo has a couple of places for the tours of Kyrgyzstan on the 2nd to the 10th of June and the 9th to the 17th of June.

Kyrgyzstan is famous for snowy peaks, high alpine meadows, broad grasslands filled with the fragrances of plants and flowers, clear mountain rivers, and serene mirrored lakes scattered among the tall peaks. This tour to Kyrgyzstan introduces you to these wild natural spots, as well as the ancient history of the Silk Road. From a luxury yurt camp in beautiful surroundings to watching locals play horse sports or hunt with eagles and to the towns and villages with their exotic bazaars, this will be a unique, off-the-beaten-track experience.

Barries first new tour for 2026 and surprises galore. Of course we will talk about the station and the famous theatre but once we hit the back streets there is so much more of interest. How about a forgotten wedding venue for the famous, a hidden square and a music venue many of us will remember. Also a pub that changed British comedy forever and the man who made crossing the road a bit easier! And if thats not enough we meet the most famous soldier from first world war.

In the middle of the 19th century the area we know as South Kensington was a rural suburb with mainly agricultural land and farms. That all changed when Queen Victoria’s husband Prince Albert proposed ‘The Great Exhibition of the Works of Industry of All Nations’ on the banks of the Serpentine in Hyde Park. The huge exhibition which opened in 1851 was dubbed ‘The Crystal Palace’.

The Jewish community have an intriguing and often surprising history in this country, dating back to at least the time of William the Conqueror - and in my opinion, well beyond that. And, as with everywhere else in Europe, the majority wound up in the capital.

This is a walking tour around one of London's most buzzing and character-filled areas and one that has often been the landing place for immigrants new to the city.
