A flexible, unscripted experience designed entirely around your interests. Your host will adapt the day based on what excites you mostWhat you’ll do
In a blink, you might feel teleported to East Asia, but fret not; you're still in Westminster, London! Our friendly London host eagerly awaits to guide you through the fascinating Chinatown, a delightful maze of Chinese eateries, food shops, bakeries, reflexology masters, and traditional medicine experts.
Eat and drink your way through the vibrant area (our favorite way to explore anywhere, really) and immerse yourself in the cultural fusion that Chinatown embraces - it's not just Chinese goodies you'll find here.
Dive into the buzzing street food scene, meandering through lantern-adorned streets and hidden back alley markets. Savor authentic Asian delights like matcha soft-serve, black sesame sundaes, wild bubble tea flavors, classic pineapple buns, or steaming char siu buns. Who knows, you might even stumble upon a timely dim sum!
And hey, remember to swing by a supermarket and grab some exotic flavors as souvenirs for your loved ones back home. Happy munching!

It was an incredible experience! With our tour guide, Peppe, we were able to see and learn about many things all over London. It was so worth the time and money, and Peppe did a wonderful job explaining the history and culture..

Darryl was a charming and outstanding guide for our initial foray into London Chinatown. The food at each stop was outstanding and even included Peking Duck at Four Seasons Garrard Street, which I had hoped we might visit. In between stops, we learned a lot about Chinatown and the adjacent Soho area. Also, Darryl shared with me some insights into how to hone my photographic skills. It was an evening very well spent and a highlight of our London holiday, which was a 65th birthday present for my missus. We highly recommend both Darryl and the City Unscripted Wok n’ Roll Chinatown Food Tour. Cheers!
