As any fan of the Beatles knows, the band originated in Liverpool but made their mark in London. Take a journey through the iconic band’s life and career as you travel the streets of London and discover the prominent landmarks and lesser-known sites that tell the story of the Beatles in London.

You’ll be able to chart the rise of Beatlemania from the early days in 1962 to the band’s memorable end in 1970, as well as the solo years that followed.

One of the major features on any of these London Beatles tours is the world-renowned Abbey Road Studios. Learn all about this famous recording studio where Beatles recorded almost all of their albums and singles between the early days of 1962 to their final year in 1970.

The iconic crosswalk is also a fan favorite, where you can post just like the Beatles did on the cover of Abbey Road. This is one photo opportunity you won’t want to miss.

Abbey Road crossing

As you travel through the Beatles’ old stomping ground, you’ll also be able to view or visit some of the buildings that played a large roll in their lives. Get all the trivia about the London Palladium, where Beatles fans were first diagnosed with ‘Beatlemania’.

Another unforgettable spot on a Beatles tour is the Apple Corps building on Saville Row. First, it was converted into a recording studio where the band created the majority of the Let It Be album. It then went down in history as the bittersweet site of the Beatles’ impromptu final performance when they played publically for the last time on the rooftop.

Along with these major landmarks, you’ll also get the chance to explore some more underrated spots. Take in the sights of Marylebone Station where opening scenes of ‘A Hard Day’s Night‘ were filmed. If you decided on the Beatles walking tour, you’ll also enjoy a visit to the studio where ‘Hey Jude‘ was recorded as well as the filming location of ‘Help!‘.

Just down the road from Marylebone Station is Ringo Starr’s one-time-home where a number of the Beatles lived (as well as Jimmi Hendrix). It was here that Paul McCartney worked on the demos for several future hits including Eleanor Rigby.

The Beatles photo

If you’d like to grab a souvenir to mark the day, stop off at the London Beatles Store where you can buy anything from keyrings, postcards, posters, and clothing, to bona fide collector’s items like out-of-print magazines featuring the band and rare recordings.

Take a step back in time to the 60s on one of these Beatles tours in London, when Beatlemania gripped the world and the Fab Four’s music filled pubs and homes across London (and the globe).

If you’re a true Beatles fan or even just a music-lover with a taste for rock ‘n roll, this is the tour for you.

    This is a must do in London if you have ever loved music. I humored my husband by going because he is a musician and I think I might have loved it even more than he did! Well, maybe not. Our friends said their tour guide was the best get him, but we thought ours was the best, so I concluded they are all fabulous, so it doesn’t matter. The walk on Abby Road are pictures we will have in our scrap book forever as well as all the iconic music memorabiliac I made that word up sights we saw! So great!

    We had a totally brilliant time being driven around London hearing musical facts many of which we never knew even though we’ve both lived here for 50 years. The sights in the 3.5 hour tour are non-stop, from finding out where and how the Sex Pistols came to be, to where the Live Aid single was recorded. Bruce our guide was great fun, kept us entertained throughout and helped to make it a super afternoon, and his musical knowledge is amazing! Take care when having your photo done crossing Abbey Road though, not all drivers are patient!
