About This Tour

  • Tour Description

    Discover the places that made a superstar on this four-hour George Michael London Tour, travelling by black taxi through the neighbourhoods where George grew up and later made his home.

    Born Georgios Kyriacos Panayiotou, George grew up “round here” in north London and Hertfordshire. Your guide will take you to his childhood homes, his schools, his father’s restaurant and the places where a shy teenager found his voice and a lifelong friend in Andrew Ridgeley.

    Along the way, hear how the two schoolboys formed their first band, how a chat in a pub snug led to Wham!, and how they rose to fame before George launched one of the most successful solo careers of all time. You’ll also see the homes that appear in George’s own videos and the houses where Wham! fans gathered hoping for a glimpse of their idols.

    The George Michael London Tour then heads to Hampstead and Highgate, where George lived as an adult, to hear about his life away from the spotlight, his generosity and the challenges he faced.

    The tour ends at George’s favourite pub, a centuries-old local close to the home where he spent his final years.

A George Michael pilgrimage completed We’d booked this after spending a couple of days visiting George Michael’s country home. Sue, our guide, was brilliant from the start. It could’ve been awkward-sharing a cab with four strangers but by then end of it, we were all friends. I loved seeing George’s humble beginnings and it certainly made him the man he became. Visiting his final resting place was an honour. We’d already been but it felt right to go with other fans too. I’d recommend this tour for any true George fan. And Sue, you are a star!

Ideal opportunity to get a glimpse of the life and times of this pop legend Great tour to learn more about the life and times of George Michael. Would highly recommend to any fan who wants a glimpse into the pop legend's life. We weren't told about the £10 additional fee to visit Highgate cemetery (this could be better explained).
