What you’ll do

Get ready for a mouthwatering adventure through London's culinary treasure trove, London Bridge! With your local host leading the way, you'll dive into a feast of flavors, uncover hidden gems, and savor delights that only a true insider can reveal. This isn't just about food; it's about experiencing the heart and soul of London's most famous market.

You'll kick things off right outside Monmouth Coffee Company, where the aroma of freshly roasted beans sets the stage for the day. With your host by your side, you're in for a treat, starting with a sweet surprise. Imagine biting into a fluffy donut oozing with creamy custard or tangy jam. It's a sugary delight that's perfect for sharing – if you can resist keeping it all to yourself!

Your next stop is a closely guarded secret, known for its iconic sandwich that locals can't get enough of. Picture this: spicy, smoky chorizo nestled in fresh bread, bursting with flavor. It's the kind of bite that leaves you craving more, but sharing with a friend ensures you save room for what's next.

From there, you'll venture to a spot specializing in something truly unique – a wrap like no other. Think sustainable, ethically sourced meat, perfectly seasoned and wrapped up in a delicious package. It's a culinary journey in itself, offering flavors that dance on your tongue and leave you wanting more.

Just when you think it can't get any better, you'll arrive at a hidden gem offering a taste of the Middle East. Imagine biting into a savory croquette filled with exotic, mouthwatering ingredients. It's an experience that transports you straight to the bustling streets of Baghdad, right in the heart of London.

Then, prepare to be wowed by a pasta dish that's become the stuff of legend. Picture fresh, handmade pasta coated in a rich, savory sauce that makes each bite better than the last. Sharing this dish is a must, as it's too good not to savor together.

As the flavors continue to swirl, it's time for a relaxing break with a pint of craft beer and some of the finest seafood nibbles around. Imagine sipping a refreshing beer, nibbling on top-notch seafood, and soaking in the lively market atmosphere. It's the perfect moment to chat with your host, who will undoubtedly share some insider secrets and fun facts about the market.

Finally, you'll end your culinary adventure on a sweet note at a cozy little spot known for its traditional British crumble. Think seasonal fruits topped with golden, buttery crumble and served with a generous dollop of creamy custard. It's comfort food at its finest, and sharing this dessert makes the experience even more delightful.

Throughout this delectable journey, your local host will weave in stories, trivia, and insider tips, making each stop more than just a bite to eat – it's a discovery. This is not your typical food tour; it's an adventure that tantalizes your taste buds and feeds your curiosity. So grab your appetite and your sense of adventure, and get ready for an unforgettable day around London Bridge!

Ana, made the experience very engaging by contacting me prior to our scheduled date. We were able to plan my May 12th date with the requests I asked for and we were able to introduce ourselves to each other. The places Ana took me to were not always listed under regular tours of London which made it more interesting for me to understand the culture of the city. I was able to visit sites that only a Londoner would know about. I was especially thrilled to visit The Ned Bar/Restaurant, one of the filming sites of the James Bond film, Goldfinger. Another special visiting site was the lifting of the gates at Tower Bridge. We had the best viewing spot that only Ana knew where to stand. We had time to visit the first church built in London. We saw the horse guards parade own the street on their way to Buckingham Palace. We took epicures in front of the Clock Tower in the best possible location, etc. What I really liked bout Ana was her ability to socially engage with our environment.
