Tour description

*Not suitable for children under 14 years of age.

!Done the law done the snare!


From the legalization of piracy to Paul Raymond , through the transformation of the brothels of the old red light district.

SOHO represents the revolution of the modern era reinventing the nude in theaters or challenging the system with the first communist manifesto.

  • We begin with the Opium War in Chinatown , going through the misadventures of the most womanizing English king at the origins of this ancient hunting ground. By the beginning of the 20th century there was a mix of restaurants of foreign origin, a fashionable place for intellectuals, writers and artists.


  • We will pass by the famous Red Lion where Marx and Engels met to change the course of history.


  • We will tell the anecdotes of the famous Windmill Theater that opened a stage in Burlesque, dribbling the censorship of the moment.


  • We will walk the streets of the most famous Gay neighborhood in the world remembering the King of SOHO, Paul Raymond, through the clubs that are still open.


  • We will talk about the rise of Sex Shops to the decline of Night Clubs, in an area that survived one of the harshest cholera pandemics, thanks to Dr. John Snow.


  • Rolling Stones or Jimi Hendrix will accompany us on this adventure in the heart of London, through the streets of the famous Carnaby Street, symbol of the 70s .


  • We will end at the temple that made the acclaimed Beatles famous: The Palladium Theatre, very close to Oxford Circus , where we will put the cherry on top of our Tour.


If you dare, we can working OUT!!
