Liquid History
After many years conducting family and friends (and their friends, and their friends) through the great city discovering London’s ‘ liquid’ history, I decided to throw the Saloon doors wide open and invite you and your friends to join me. Have your Camera handy, you never know who we might bump into along the way.
My vast experience of London pub crawling has taught me that the group should not be too big (been there, done that one) and my relationship with the fine Landlords of London is a very good one. Keeping my Crawlers down to a manageable group of around 14 people ensures the crawl is easily kept on track and that we will not unduly disrupt smaller pubs.
Crawls take place on Fridays, Saturdays & Sundays (message me to arrange other days).
