Christmas Delights: Festive Tea & Doughnuts at Borough Market
Description
Our holiday tour begins at St. John Bakery where we’ll try their delicious doughnuts to get the tour started off right. From there, we’ll walk up Borough High Street stopping along the way to talk a bit about history, restaurants, pubs, and anything else we feel like chatting about. Our second stop is right near Borough Market, one of the oldest public markets in London, where we’ll sample some more amazing donuts. Make sure you pace yourself - it’s a marathon, not a sprint. Our third stop is actually in Borough Market itself where you’ll sample some absolutely stunning doughnuts that are made fresh every day in their pastry school. Borough Market will be all dressed up for the holidays, so bring your cameras. And our last and final stop at Crosstown Doughnuts will give you a jaw dropping view of Tower Bridge that you have to see to believe. We’re so excited to get this tour started and we hope you can join us!

Did this tour on December 3 with Luke as my guide. I love doing tours that are a little different when I travel and this do not to or was excellent. Not only did I get to eat lots of delicious donuts but I learned a lot about an area of london that I have not explored before. Luke was an excellent guide, it ended up just beings me an the tour which I have had happen before and those were awkward.. This was not awkward due to Luke being a great guide, and keeping up a stream of facts and conversation. Also, a shoot out to Frankie at the teashop we went to. Super helpful. Would highly reccomend.
So happy to hear that Luke made you feel so welcomed on our lovely tour in London! He says hi by the way! We'd love to see you on a future tour, please use the code SUPERFAN10. Cheers!
As fun as it sounds. Our man, Oscar, was all too happy too lead us around the Borough Market area - pointing out building of historical significance as well as pubs, restaurants and other come-back-and-see-them spots. Of course there were doughnuts. Thankfully, Oscar brought each of us a bag to collect our half-eaten stash so we wouldn’t have a sugar-seizure mid-tour. The doughnuts themselves were a varied lot. From the traditional to the wild. And all were worth sampling, but of course we had our favorites. Our tea stop was a breath of perfumed air. All in all, an excellent entree to the food and drink scene around Borough Market. And enough walking to keep us from feeling guilty about the indulging.
This was the most fun way to see some of the major areas in London. It was a great way to keep kids engaged as we learned about the history of the area. Oscar was our tour guide and he was amazing! He knew his history, his donuts and all his connections in the market made it even better. Highly recommend.
