After boarding your minibus by the Duke of York's Column you'll be driven around town on a fully guided rock'n'roll tour through London's music history, visiting iconic places like the Beatles' Abbey Road Studios and Jimi Hendrix's flat.
You'll see some of the pubs and clubs where the bands once played, stop outside the music studios where they recorded, and drive down trendy streets like Chelsea's King's Road where they bought their clothes.
You'll see the sites that made the Sixties swing, where the hippie 'counter-culture' once thrived, and where the punk revolution kicked off.
You'll see where they got married, the places that inspired their lyrics, where Mick and Marianne once partied, the hotels that they loved staying at, and where some of the most famous stars died.
If you're a Beatles fan then you'll get to stare up at the Savile Row roof where they played their final live performance, and then get a chance to photograph yourself walking over the famous zebra crossing outside Abbey Road Studios.
