Description
London is a city of bizarre and curious places and stories. It is a birthplace of the most popular music band in the 70s and 80s – Queen. You will walk down the streets that still remember Freddie Mercury’s footsteps. Start your tour by seeing one of the major concert venues where Queen have played several concerts, including the legendary Xmas concerts in 1975 and 1979. Follow your guide to the most popular recording studio, where ‘Who Wants to Live Forever’ and ‘Barcelona’ were recorded. You will also see another popular studio which was used for rehearsals.
Shortly after you will be taken to the place where Freddie lived with Mary Austin, to whom he dedicated one of his most famous songs, ‘love of my life’. Reaching Freddie’s former house you will continue your journey towards the flat which all of the band members shared in the early 70s.
Stop by the iconic pub where Freddie met Mary, Brian and Roger before you walk to the house where Freddie died and which is occupied by Mary Austin and her family. Afterwards you will explore the area which was Freddie's first flat.Did you know that Freddie used to sell clothes and his own paintings?
