Great Tour! A must do while in London - Sam was an awesome tour guide! He made sure we all had a great experience and even knew exactly where to go for a prime spot for the changing of the guards while we snacked on one of our treats. Highly recommend!

Great food and awesome guide!! - We were coming in from Chiswick and took an uber to arrive on time, only to get caught in tons of traffic. I contacted the tour and told them that we were running late, and asked if we could meet them at one of the food stops. They responded very quickly and said that the food tour would leave at the appointed time, but they had another guide who would meet us at the meeting place. We assumed that he would help us meet up with the group--instead we were so lucky to get Kevin Bond as our guide as he just happened to be off work that day, and we had a tour with only us.
Kevin was an awesome guide, who gave us lots of history of the various foods that we tried, as well as some good stories about different spots in London and some history, as well. He also took us to a spot where we got to watch the changing of the guard.
The food was great! We loved the scotch egg, the cheese in the cheese shop was delicious, the chocolate was awesome and we ended with a "proper English afternoon tea".
If you are looking for a great food tour that includes great tastings, good history and interesting facts about London, we would definitely recommend this tour. Thanks, Kevin, for a fantastic day!

Putting' on the Ritz - Fantastic tour! Great food tastings (after all they are fit for a queen), informative, and a fun walk! Our guide Kay was great. In addition to the food tastings, he showed us many hidden and historical locations that we would have missed on our own. All in all, a very worthwhile tour.

A thorough 'Royal" tour - Gotta say I wasn't disappointed! This was my second choice for food tours in London, my first being sold out, but this was so much fun and so intimate. Thank you Kevin Bond. I learned so much and the food tastings were interesting. The Scotch Eggs, the chocolate and THE CHEESES - wow - all so good. Loved the extra stories along the way and all the business with Royal Warrants. If you want to learn some off-beat facts and see the "royal" area of London, I would hightly recommend.
It was a rainy tour day, but the walk was steady and level, so just about anybody can do it. Nice lunch time tea to wrap things up!

Best food tour ever! - I just finished my Royal food tour with Kevin Bond. We have done food tours all over the US and Europe and I believe this was the best! Kevin is a dancer in the West End and he moves fast, but is full of knowledge about Royal history and each of the offerings were wonderful and very interesting. We got to see the changing of the guard, eat from Royal food vendors, taste cheese and receive a lesson on cheese from a cheese specialist (2/3 were ranking best in the world) and much much more. I was alone because my hubby is on business in London and I tagged along, but I cannot say enough good things about this tour and especially about Kevin Bond!

Very entertaining and delicious - We loved this small group food tour. Kevin Bond was our guide and he was fabulous. We tasted all sorts of delicious foods - some that were created at the request of previous royals and some that are currently enjoyed by royals. The tour has a lot of very interesting history about the royals and we greatly enjoyed it.
Definitely recommend this tour and Kevin Bond!

One of the best mornings of our trip! - As a mother traveling with two teen girls (13 and 14), I wanted to book something that would keep their attention, combining sight-seeing, changing of the guards and a bit of royal culture. This walking tour was a perfect fit. Kevin Bond was an excellent tour guide - personable and knowledgeable. The kids even felt comfortable asking questions - they were often walking up ahead with him he was so inviting and engaging.
We were on the "royal food tour" which highlighted shops and food stores the royals visit. This tour was extremely informative and the best surprise was when Kevin took us to the "real" changing of the guards (excellent vantage point) the exact location I won't mention in this review, you'll have to go see for yourself!
Thank you so much, Kevin! We all agreed you were a highlight of the trip!
