Naomi was a great guide who had a great mix of sharing facts, answering questions, and just chatting with the group. All the food sampled was very tasty and gave a nice sample of some of the different cuisines you can find in London. And portions were well thought out so you weren’t stuffed but definitely got enough for dinner.
Excellent tour. Kat was brilliant with her insights on the food, history, local culture… absolutely amazing.
Thanks so much!!
We had the absolute best time with Kat! She quickly became a great friend, chatting with us about local history, and sharing delicious food of different varieties. We left with full bellies and lots of laughing and smiles. We highly recommend this tour!
