Registered on October 14, 2020

Hey my name is Hind and I’m a student here in London. I’m a confident, charismatic and curious young woman who loves to learn more about the world around her. When I first arrived in London, I fell in love with the city instantly. The culture, the history, the art, the architecture- everything about it is wonderful. And that’s just what you can see on the surface: there are so many more stories behind these beautiful buildings, secrets hidden in these streets. That’s what makes my tours the best to go on- what drives me is my passion to learn more about the history of this city and that’s what I want to show you on my tours. Added plus: I have great recommendations for other amazing things to do in London and restaurant to visit that will make your trip to London extra special!

Tour description

Want to know where Casanova once stayed in London? Or how Soho changed from a neighbourhood for the rich to a haven for the poor? Or perhaps you’re a music lover and you’ve always wanted to see where rock stars like the Beatles recorded their songs and the streets they partied on? Then this is the tour for you to learn everything you need (and want) to know about one of the liveliest neighbourhoods in the city

A neighbourhood with a history spanning back to the 17th century, I will guide you through these streets, telling you all about the history the buildings and the people who once lived there. From topics like music, sex, fashion, disease and the LGBT+ community, there’s nothing you won’t know about this vibrant community when the tour is done.

Some of the places we visit on my amazing tour: 

  • Soho Square 
  • John Snow Pub 
  • Carnaby Street 
  • Location of the recording studios where performers like Elton John and David Bowie recorded in. 
  • Venue where ‘Beatlemania’ was coined. 

And so much more...

Hind was an excellent guide—fun, personable and knowledgeable. She brought the information on the sites to life providing interesting tidbits usually not found in guide books. She kept each of us engaged. Highly recommend her.

Hind scheduled the tour but did not confirm it. I tried contacting her several times and she did not respond to any msg via the app. She did not show up and tour never happened.

Hind was so enthusiastic about Soho and London and it really showed through. My mom has limited mobility (can't walk a lot of stairs) but the route was smoothe and easy for her with just climbing up and down from the sidewalk. Hind was so passionate about everything she talked about that I would recommend this tour to anyone interested in history and the area.
