Soho Historical Cuisine and Music Tour

Local Soho resident Gilly Da Silva founded Saucy Soho Tours to offer unique off the beaten track tours.  She uses her expertise, personal experiences, and stories about Soho to lead the tour. In 1989, when Soho was still regarded as London's hedonistic red light district, Gilly had worked as a cocktail server in a private club there. She managed the Soho Food Feast as well as being a member of the team. The itinerary has been created to allow you to experience some of the traditional British cuisine while also providing you with witty historical tidbits about Soho. There will also be an opportunity to see where some of the biggest rock stars performed and wrote some of their biggest hits and stop off at one of David Bowies local favourite pubs for a beer. We can also offer private tours for hen and stag events.
