Widely recognised as one of the most creative and influential musicians of the 20th Century Jimi Hendrix arrived in London when the swinging 60’s were in full swing. In just 4 years he left a legacy on the city unmatched by any of his contemporaries, a legacy that is as strong today as it was 50 years ago when tragically his life ended at just 27 years of age.

The Cross Town Traffic Tour is your 3 hour complete Hendrix extravaganza that will take you to 15 landmarks associated with the Godfather of Electric Guitar.

CROSS TOWN TRAFFIC TOUR - highlights include:

The Scotch of St. James – visit the west end club where it all began. Hear what happened on his first night in London when one short jam session changed the course of Rock history.

34 Montagu Square – Stand on the steps of Ringo Starr’s former London apartment and hear how “The Wind Cried Mary” and the infamous drug trip that saw his illustrious tenants evicted.
