FANTASTIC!

Amazing tour around the East Village with Bobby! He was warm, friendly & very knowledgeable with all the music facts and information. We had a small group tour so it felt very personal & was a unique and interesting activity to do whilst we were in New York! We loved seeing the hangouts for all the musical legends gone by. Highly recommend and very well worth the money for 2hours of Music history and lots of fun.

Hey! Ho! Let’s Go

I did this tour of the Lower East side 15 years ago and it’s still just as good. Bobby is extremely knowledgeable on both the history of the area and the music. You won’t find a more authentic tour guide & his book is a great read too.

Perfect Afternoon! Review of: Woodstock & Bearsville Center Rock Tour

We LOVED our tour. If music is your thing you will so enjoy this. Our tour guide Joe was so knowledgeable and fun. He personalized to talk about bands we love, came with great photos, and created a perfect afternoon. Also a covid activity - Joe was super safe and thoughtful about the way he managed our group and very careful to keep his mask on for the entire duration of our tour. Last but not least, it was easy to communicate with the company that runs the tour- they even accommodated the later start we requested. THANKS Rock Junket!

Fun and Informative Review of: East Village Rock Tour

Great, informative tour with Bobby Pinn. My two teens and I really enjoyed it. Bobby had great stories and showed us so many places that are part of rock history. He also gave us recommendations for great restaurants, clubs and record stores; we followed up on those and found his advice to be rock solid!

Fantastic tour of Greenwich Village for Bob Dylan fans! Review of: East Village Rock Tour

My husband, daughter and I were very keen to take the Greenwich Village tour and so we are very grateful that Rock Junket decided to go ahead with its Sunday 10th November tour despite having only our party of three and one other person booked onto it. Joe was the perfect tour guide. He is as passionate about music and social history as we are. His detailed knowledge of Greenwich Village's geography, social history and music meant that he quickly took us to, and offered us an insight into, the Bob Dylan related areas of Greenwich Village which were of particular interest to us. Thank you Joe and Rock Junket we had a great time. P.S the Rock Junket book is a fantastic souvenir.

Fun and compelling tour

We had a wonderful walking tour with Joe around Greenwich Village. It was fun to get the stories from a local who knows his stuff. Lots of fun tidbits and a great way to see the Village and historical spots. Joe was delightful and very personable. I especially loved the photos…
