What You Will Do
Hop onboard our groovy psychedelic 'Magic Bus' and travel back to the sites and sounds of Swinging London. Cruise the Kings Road, Chelsea and discover the era-defining locations like *Mary Quant’s ‘Bazaar’ where the mini-skirt was created, John Crittle’s ‘Dandie Fashions’ and ‘Granny Takes A Trip’ - London’s first psychedelic boutique. You’ll see where 60s music legends lived and still live today. Visit the celebrated Troubadour - a music heritage shrine, unchanged from when Paul Simon, Bob Dylan and Jimi Hendrix and many others played there.
