Discovery of the British gourmet world - Very very successful stay... the market was really great... we discovered many facets of English gastronomic customs... and bought delicious Christmas pudding... enough to destroy the legend of bad British cuisine...

Experience the market at your own pace - The market is large and can be overwhelming. This tour is a great way to learn about its history and the key players. We did it at our own pace and stopped to sample foods and drinks whenever we felt like it!

Great! - I did this tour after my originally booked food tour got cancelled. I have to say for me it was great! The information provided was very interesting, and the two people talking were very engaging. It was easy to follow their directions. The greatest thing for me was that I could pause the tour anytime and taste the food and then continue. Definitely would recommend!

Not enough of a food tour. - It had some good information about Bourough market, but I was hoping it was just going to focus on food and tell us different places to go and what foods to try. This was more of a history lesson and my teens were bored early on and stopped listening to it.

Non- responsive tour operator - We were unable to download the audio tour. And after sending an email to tour operator we have been ignored. Fortunately, we didn't spend much on this tour and we enjoyed Borough Market on our own.
