Terrific cultural experience! Loved Kevin

This was an amazing tour with guide Kevin who provided a great experience and endless stories and historical points of view. Much broader than just the markets - took the time to point out points of interest and significance along the way - made sure we were in a taxi to our next stop before departing. One of the best guides we’ve ever had! Excellent half day in London.

Strolling and looking for hours

A colorful, alternative part of town with lots of shops of the same kind. The market is great. You could easily spend a lot of pounds there, which would be quickly spent. Every shop there has something special, as well as the odd delicacy. I also like the buildings there. And especially the walk along the canal.

Vielen Dank für Ihre Bewertung, Camden ist eine besondere Stadt.

Fun and informative but not what we wanted

The market tour was good, though missed two markets that we really wanted to see - Covent Garden and Borough Market - so that was very disappointing as Borough Market was and is closed on Monday's i would have expected our guide to know that. So while we enjoyed what we did it was not what we wanted and therefore was disappointed.

Operator response

Hi Karen, I'm really worry that you were so disappointed by Borough Market. The market is open 7 days a week but is quieter on Monday with many stalls being closed, especially after they updated calendar they put in place just a few weeks ago. Your guide took you to Spitalfields Market as he also to Leadenhall Market and added 90 minutes to the tour but I understand it doesn't make up for a quieter than usual Borough Market. We have updated our bookings for this tour so it won't be available on Mondays any longer until Borough Market is back to full strength on Mondays later in the year. My apologies again for your disappointment and I will be arranging partial refund for you as we never want any of our guests to leave without a positive feeling about our tours.

Fun & Shop

Never seen a more happening market place before. It is a mix of heritage and modern architecture, culture is still visible. Colorful, musical, bustling with tourist, it's a must visit place in London.

Thanks so much, I'm so glad that you enjoyed your day!

One of the best tours I...

One of the best tours I have ever taken! Stephen is an excellent guide: personable, engaging and with extensive knowledge. He made the tour very enjoyable. A definite highlight of my trip. I will be sure to book with Stephen when I return to London!

Operator response

It was so lovely to meet you Karen and show you some of most funky markets in London. You're always welcome back and I thought of you just yesterday as I went past that place you got your Tibetan style fleece jacket!
