Tripadvisor customer · Naomi · Apr 11, 2026 Excellent
This was an amazing tour, despite the cold weather. Ollie was friendly, funny and very knowledgeable. We wandered around Borough Market and learned about it's history. The food we sampled was FANTASTIC! Starting with a great egg and bacon roll. This was followed by more amazing food, beautiful sausage rolls, fish and chips, apple crumble like I've never tasted before, a cheese stick, a french pattiserie delight and finally wine and cheese! All accompanied by historical facts and lovely stories.<br /><br />We also went to Leadenhall Market and learned it's history which was fascinating. It's so lively and contained lots of stalls and crafty things.<br /><br />We were a small group of four plus Ollie and I certainly had a great time. I would thoroughly recommend this tour especially if Ollie was your guide!! Thank you Ollie, you made the whole experience so special!
