Wonderful food tour! - We had a wonderful time on our tour with Dave. He was very knowledgeable about the history of the city of London and was quite entertaining! I especially loved hearing about the historical context of each place we visited and ate. We had our toddler with us and he loved the meat pie and mashed potatoes! I would highly recommend this tour!

SO MUCH FUN!!!!!!! - Kaffe made this tour A-MAZING!!! It was my birthday, I was hoping for a group of people to kind of celebrate with, but upon arrival we realized it was just my husband, me, and Kaffe. He was awesome. Super knowledgable and in a way that was so interesting. We saw so much of London that we never would have seen. The food and destinations were so fun. He personlized this just for us, and when the tour was over, I was SO SAD and did NOT want the day to end. He was like a personal tour guide. We just loved him and the whole tour!!! HIGHLY recommend!!!! (and we saw a celebrity thanks to Kaffe's keen eye and I got my picture with him!!!)

Fun afternoon - Recommended! This was our 2nd tour - last year we did the East London tour, which was also very good. Max was our enthusiastic and knowledgeable leader for the three hour outing in “heart of the city.” We covered a lot of ground, learned quite a bit of history, enjoyed interesting food, and shared a lot of laughs.
