The David Bowie London Walking Tour: A Legacy Explored

A boy born in post-war Brixton, David Jones would transform into David Bowie, a global superstar whose legacy continues to inspire millions. This tour explores his south London roots, offering intimate insights into his early family life, before journeying to Mayfair and Soho to uncover his extraordinary working and social life in the capital's vibrant music scene.

Brixton & Stockwell: Bowie's Genesis

Our walkabout in Brixton and Stockwell isn't just about Bowie's personal connections to this dynamic neighborhood; it's also a celebration of the area's rich heritage and diverse cultures. You'll gain a unique perspective on the places that shaped him as a young lad growing up.

Brixton proudly embraces its Bowie connections. We'll visit sites where fans spontaneously gathered to celebrate his life and music after his passing, including the impromptu street parties that became a testament to his enduring impact.

Your David Bowie experience includes a short tube journey (guests just need a travel card or a form of contactless payment) into Central London (only 5 stops northbound on the Victoria Line) to arrive at Oxford Circus.

Mayfair & Soho: The Star's Stride

In Mayfair, we'll recreate the scene of one of the most famous and iconic album covers of all time. We'll also take in a wall plaque dedicated to a fictional character who became one of Bowie’s most memorable on-stage personas.

The vibrant buzz of Soho provides a treasure trove of Bowie-themed locations:

  • A street where he slept overnight in a van during his early struggles to become a star.
  • The clubs and pubs where he socialized and forged connections.
  • The famous street where he picked up the latest fashions that defined his iconic style.
  • A venue where he held a residency while striving for his breakthrough moment.
  • Studios where he recorded demos and, ultimately, his best-selling albums.

Throughout the tour, we'll make multiple presentation stops, enriching your experience with fascinating facts and amusing anecdotes. We'll enhance these stories with visual aids to jog your memory and, of course, some great music to remind you of the legend that was David Bowie.

Our customers say...
"My wife Angela and I had a very enjoyable and informative London Rock Tour last Wednesday, 11th September. with Rob as our Tour Guide. I used to work in Piccadilly during the 60s, so many of the locations Rob introduced us to were familiar (though sadly nothing like as brilliant as they were back then!). Carnaby Street is now pretty soulless (I spent many lunch hours walking about its environs, so I know what a colourful and "buzzing" place it was), as was Denmark Street (now a shadow of its "Tin Pan Alley" days). However, the Tour brought back many happy memories. However, the main reason we enjoyed ourselves so much was Rob's excellence as a Tour Guide. He was enthusiastic, informative and very personable. And his audio-visual aids were excellent. I would absolutely have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone who has an interest in those wonderful 1960s musical times. The whole experience was brilliant! "

"Rob, thanks for leading such an epic James Bond London Walking Tour! We all had a blast reliving our favourite scenes at iconic filming locations like the MI6 headquarters and Downing Street. Your witty 007 puns and insider trivia kept us laughing and learning throughout the tour. The quiz question had us all racking our brains, and you truly made it a memorable day. I’ll certainly recommend you to my friends."
