Pink Floyd in London Rock Music Walking Tour

The Early Years of Pink Floyd, including Syd Barrett, in London’s West End area
Why travel with a copycat, when you can go with the ORIGINAL London Rock Tour!

Walk in the footsteps of Syd, Roger, Nick, Richard Wright and others around Covent Garden, Fitzrovia, edge of Mayfair and part of Soho tracing the path of their transformation from students to rockers. Be introduced to London’s 60s psychodelia scene, the theatres/clubs/pubs where they played, along with contemporaries including Clapton, Hendrix, Ike & Tina Turner, Tomorrow, Yardbirds, The Who, The Move, The Pretty Things, Fairport Convention, Maybel Greer’s Toyshop, a young Bowie and a young Marc Bolan…
As this is your own private tailor-made tour, there’s the option to incorporate other prog bands and/or psychodelia as you choose. Spoilt for choice!

Pink Floyd London Rock Walk Highlights include:
Venues including Lyceum, Middle Earth, Marquee, Speakeasy and UFO; the Regent St Poly Tech campus locations where several members were students, where the band formed and played very early gigs; two former homes of Syd Barrett (one of which is steps from some Beatles’ Hard Days Night filming locations!) Denmark Street/London’s ‘Tin Pan Alley;’ what was the Beatles’ Savile Theatre, where Floyd played in 1967; Carnaby Street area; London Palladium; BBC Broadcasting House and more.
This suggested walk outline is a 4 hour max ‘half day’ walking tour, approx 3 miles with several break options through Covent Garden, Fitzrovia, parts of Mayfair and Soho. Your tour finishes in the heart of Soho, with many pubs, clubs, restaurants and London’s West End theatres.
MAKE IT A FULL DAY PINK FLOYD LONDON — link up this West End area walk with a walk in North London’s Islington area, where you can see, among several other music highlights, what was Pink Floyd’s Britannia Row Studios and a former home of Roger Waters…
West End + Islington would make up to an 8 hour full day with your rock tour guide. Cost of public transport is separate, pay that directly on the day please.
