Will was amazing! He was friendly, knowledgeable, and fun! We had wonderful food and learned a lot as we ate and walked!
Will did a great job telling us about the beautiful Soho area of London and we enjoyed the variety of foods from the local restaurants!
I cannot recommend this tour enough. Will was a wonderful tour guide, and very personable. We had some of the best food in Soho. Highly recommend.
Very busy night in SoHo, hard to keep pace with the group and hear all the history that was being said. Our guide, Benedict, was charming and engaging but the whole experience was definitely not worth the 258.00$.
Wonderful food tour with Elishka of SoHo. Four stops of Mediterranean, Indian, Chinese and sticky toffee pudding in an English pub. She was amazing - narrating history and food culture. I finished every tasting!
This was a fantastic experience and Will was by far the best tour guide we have had with Viator in 3 different countries! So knowledgeable and friendly! Each stop was very accommodating and food was excellent!
Just a wonderful experience start to finish!
Great experience. Loved every stop we made. The food was a wonderful variety that we wouldn’t have experienced outside this tour. Highly recommend!!!
Benedict was a fantastic guide through the city and shared a lot of fun insights as we wandered through snacking!
Benedict is the best, he is incredibly knowledgeable about the W1 area and the hidden gems that he showed us. Highly recommend a tour with Sherpa and him for everyone.
Such a great experience with an amazing guide. Exceptional stops- yummy cheese and cider, Indian food, nap, and sticky toffee dessert.
We loved our foodie tour. We had 4 ladies from Germany and 3 of us from California. Fergus made us feel so comfortable and he knew allot of history information plus the food was great. It's important to wear comfortable shoes.
Lovely afternoon
Benedict was an excellent guide who shared stories of the cultural history of Seven Dials and SoHo. Food selection was varied. Bao buns were an unexpected delight . Highly recommend.
Come hungry. This tour was very informative and very filling. Everything was delicious, and the knowledge of the guide.(Benedict.) was amazing.
All the food was wonderful and Benedict was great with the history of the area and knowledge of the food.
Ella was a fantastic guide. So knowledgeable and friendly. We got to see a lot of places in SoHo we wouldn't have otherwise seen and also got some great history! Definitely recommend.
We thought Sam was great. We all learned interesting tidbits about London and had some fantastic food along the way. He gave great recommendations for things to do in the evening following the tour as well.
We had Abigail as our guide, and it was great! It was around 115 that day and a good part of thr tour, she was able to keep us inside. The good we tasted was all great and we got to learn some new things about a different part of Vegas. Definitely recommend!
A good amount of walking, so do be prepared for that. We loved it but some people are put off by that so if ita going to be an issue, look elsewhere.
Ella, our guide, was FABULOUS. She mixed in the history of the foods and the neighborhoods with stories of local goings on and more modern perspectives. The food stops were all delicious and fun, a very wide range of tastes. And who can complain about ending the day with a pint! Fabulous tour, delightful young woman for our guide and i can not recommend enough. So great!
Great experience! Took my family to places we wouldn’t have found on our own. Recommend this food walking tour!
A wonderfully delicious way to spend an afternoon under the guidance and kindness of Sam. Each food stop was so thoughtful and a very nice variety of dishes to enjoy!
Benedict did a great job. He was pleasant and engaging. Had great information about the area. Food was good, as well as the liquor. Great way to start our vacation.
Great experience on this food tour. The food was fantastic and the tour guide, Ella, was amazing. Would highly recommend if you are in London and want to try great food in the SoHo neighborhood.
Great way to experience some history, food and conversation. We really enjoyed the variety of restaurants Ella chose and would suggest this experience.
Unfortunately, I left this tour disappointed. For the price, there was very little food. Having been on many food tours before, I expected a proper food experience, but this felt more like a walking tour with a few snacks along the way.
The first red flag was at our first stop, being served cider in paper cups, along with warm cheese while standing on the footpath. Overall, the portions were very small, and this is the first food tour I've ever finished feeling hungry.
The only highlights were the bao buns and the Indian restaurant, which were both enjoyable. Unfortunately, they weren't enough to make up for the overall experience. I wouldn't recommend this tour.

Hi Tracy,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. While we are glad you enjoyed the bao buns and the Indian restaurant, we are truly sorry to hear that the overall experience and portion sizes left you feeling disappointed. Our tour is designed to showcase the diverse culinary history of the area, combining seated dining with authentic, local street-food stops to create a full meal by the end of the night. That being said, we take your comments about the presentation and the first stop very seriously. We are already in discussions with our local partners to review how the tastings are served, and to re-evaluate our portion sizes to ensure they meet our standards and our guests' expectations.
We appreciate your insights, and we are committed to using them to refine the flow and value of our experience.
Wonderful time with Fergus in the vibrant Soho area of London. He was knowledgeable and engaging with a wealth of information about the food we were eating, the area/restaurants/pubs we visited and London in general. Would highly recommend this tour to others. We left having met a new friend, with full bellies!
This is a great London food tour! Ella was a great guide, very fun. We really enjoyed all the tastings and learned a lot about the history of the area. Water was provided at multiple stops which I appreciate as not every food tour includes it. Really recommend this tour!
What a blast! We had a great group of folks and a great guide! World Cup match and record shattering temps kept the pubs out of reach but none-the-less we made up for it and other venues with food and drink.
Our tour guide Luca was absolutely amazing, 10 stars to him. However, for the price - the food portions were small. He mentioned several times we were a larger group and I think he didn't order more food to account for that. If you have a big appetite, you will leave hungry. Also we had been told from beginning we would finish the night with sticky toffee pudding which everyone was so excited about, but instead we got a lemon tiramisu which was just bazar, tis should be coordinated better. The listing says try over 10 food but if I am remember right, there was 9.
Response from Host, Jul 2026
Hi Stephanie, thank you so much for your review and for giving such a wonderful 10-star shoutout to Luca!
We sincerely apologize that the food experience didn't completely hit the mark for you. We aim to provide a generous variety of tastings, and we are sorry if the portions felt limited for a group of your size. We also regret the last-minute swap of the dessert. This was due to venue availability that night. This is a one-time situation, and we are working with our partners to ensure it doesn't happen again.
Your feedback is very important to us, and we've already adjusted our listing information to make sure everything is perfectly aligned for future tours. Thank you again for helping us improve!
Our guide was very personable and gave great recommendations of places to eat and drink when not on the tour. As for the tour, he took us to a great variety of places and gave us a lot of history along the way. The food and beverages were excellent. This was a great experience and highly recommended.
Great way to find the little hidden gems of restaurants in a city with a million choices. You also learn some foodie history and eat delicious food. I was so full by the end. Our guide Lucca was fun, informative and friendly.
