The food tour was by far one of our favorite things we did in London! This was our first time in London and our tour guides were AMAZING! We tried a delicious pork roll, fish and chips, oysters, and a heavenly gourmet donut that was out of this world! The history we learned was phenomenal! I’m so glad they took us to Borough Market. That was a hidden gem! I would definitely do this tour again when I come back to London! Thank you so much for a GREAT tour!

What a great visit to Landon’s Borough Market! It was a memorable and enjoyable experience. I would recommend this tour to my friends confidently.

So amazing! Informative and saw things we wouldn’t have otherwise seen. This tour should not be missed. Started in Borough Market ended at the Anchor Bar. We went on a Sunday and we were told it’s a better day to go.

Certain food that were advertised were not given (eg scones). Reason given was that the shop closed down & they hadn’t updated the website. There were very few variety and portions and had to be shared. The tea given was just the free tasting for anyone who entered that shop and not a full cup. We were not satisfied at all & it was totally not worth the money paid.

Liv was a lovely guide who took us along for a great culinary and history filled tour. We toured places we may not have otherwise gone and she's full of great theater, history, and culinary gems. Really enjoyed our tour and the tastes along the way! Especially the cheese shop!
