Top 10 Food Tours in London, England

November 25, 2021 Enriqueta Cusson

The crown jewels, Buckingham Palace, Camden Market…in London, history collides with art, fashion, food, and good British ale. A perfect day is different for everyone: culture aficionados shouldn't miss the Tate Modern and the Royal Opera House. If you love fashion, Oxford Street has shopping galore. For foodies, cream tea at Harrod’s or crispy fish from a proper chippy offers classic London flavor. Music and book buffs will love seeing Abbey Road and the Sherlock Holmes Museum (at 221B Baker Street, of course).

I have really enjoyed a private Royal Morning walking tour done virtually by Charley. The communication with her and organizing the virtual tour were great, but especially her knowledge on London impressed me.

This company contacted me prior to my tour and offered a credit or refund even before I reached out. They were easy to work with and honest and the requested refund came through very quickly. Will definitely book with them when I finally get to travel to London. It’s great to work with small businesses who do the right thing with a smile even in these difficult times. Bravo
