It's where Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin got their start, it's home to over 80 Chinese restaurants, and it's where some of the first electric billboards in the country were erected to the wonder of all who saw them!
Combining the best nightlife in London, amazing food, and a diverse array of live entertainment, Soho consistently offers a good time – no matter what your interests!
If you’ve ever wondered – we’ve got the answers.
So join Free Tours by Foot as we take a minute to relax in Soho Square, browse the windows of countless off-beat shops, and tread in the footsteps of some of the biggest names to ever come through London.
You'll meet your guide under the famous lights and vibrant signs of the iconic Piccadilly Circus.
Then, we will wander down alleyways and cobbled streets, passing by the old stomping grounds of people such as the dashingly amorous Cassanova, the brilliant and bizarre Amadeus Mozart, the revolutionary Karl Marx, and the record-breaking Beatles.
Your walk will finish in London's Chinatown - the second iteration of a Chinatown in our city, and a perfect place to grab a bite to eat!
