Description
There is nothing like a British pub! You can travel the world…and you will find fine replicas in bars…but nothing has the tradition and the ambiance of a great, historic London ‘Boozer’.
This is not just an ordinary pub crawl! Indeed there is no ‘crawling’ at all. To get you to the absolute finest pubs in one evening, you’ll be riding on a vintage, red Routemaster London bus. Not only that but to go with the iconic venues and transport, your host is also a British icon, known for being the most irascible hotelier in comedy history!
Your brusque, unforgiving host will entertain you on the way to each venue and, should you survive the ranting and abuse, you will arrive at the grandest London drinking establishments in the perfect mood for your next tipple.
But first, let’s set the scene…You have enjoyed your first couple of drinks and some wonderful pub grub. It’s time to move on from the City of London to the next venue, but your famous host has got lost on the bus on his way to meet you and is apoplectic that you started without him. You just about have time to finish your hearty repast early in the schedule…but you’ve also eaten into his valuable time! Drink up; you’ll need the ‘Dutch courage’.
