Very pleasant two hours! - I don't feel I can leave a proper review as I don't feel our experience was representative - my 12 year old son and I were the only people on the tour and we're probably not really quite in the target audience as I'm a Londoner and have been to the area lots of times (although the tour was more for son). Callum was great however, adapted it a bit for us and I did learn a few new interesting things! My son said that he enjoyed it. It's basically a walking tour of the area with some doughnuts and tea thrown in which I think is actually quite nice rather than being a solid 2 hours of walking tour. The doughnuts and tea are of the takeaway rather than sit-down variety and you are given a bag in case you want to save your doughnuts for later, so it's ok to do it after a large breakfast! It was also nice that coffee was included. The tour itself is a bit of a mix of history with some fun facts. You walk down around Borough Market and then along the river roughly from the Tate Modern to Tower Bridge. It's one of my favourite parts of London and a good part to see if you are visiting London for the first time. It doesn't include Borough Market itself, completely understandably as it is really busy, although it's probably one of the most interesting parts of that area. If you're doing it, I do recommend visiting the market before or after as it'd be shame to go there and not wander through the market.

Tour - We had a nice walking tour, learning about Southwark and the market. We sampled some food and tea and saw some sights without feeling rushed.

Fun Morning! - We took this tour as part of our Christmas do last week and all of us (group of 7) thoroughly enjoyed. Callum was our guide and as other reviewers have said he was great. He was fun, interesting and laid back and it was lovely just wandering around with him listening to some interesting and amusing stories. The donuts were delicious and the stop at the tea shop was good as well - who knew there were so many interesting flavours. We can thoroughly recommend taking this tour.

Delicious donuts & tea - It was just my husband and I, and our guide was wonderful. We were able to get a historical walk, extra added special spots on our tour because it was just the three of us. Our guide was so wonderful and the donuts were delicious. The tea store was fabulous and we came away with some great goodies.

Great tour! Not just delicious donuts and tea! - We really enjoyed this tour. First, our tour guide Andy was fantastic! He was knowledgeable and funny. We enjoyed the donut stops and especially the tea shop he introduced us to. The donuts and tea were wonderful! Andy made stops between the donuts and tea to point out other interesting sites and places. We were a group of mixed energy levels and the walk wasn’t too slow or too fast for any of us. Which was very important for our group. We had a difficult time finding our starting location. Fortunately for us Andy came looking for us!! The only thing I would change is a little more time at the Borough Market. It was such a cool place and I would have loved more time to explore it. Overall, I would highly recommend this tour and Andy in particular. Thank you for the wonderful experience.

Borough Market Tour - Ari gave us a good tour of Borough Market and the history of the surrounding area. We stopped at a few food stalls, the Market was packed on a beautiful, sunny Saturday morning. We also wandered around the streets, seeing various historic sites, including the oldest pub in London. Overall the information was great.

Tour inside borough market is not allowed - The tour guide was really nice and patient with us since we had kids and arrived a bit late but the tour was not what we were expecting. We hardly spent about 10-15 mins inside the borough market and mostly went to shops and sites outside the market area. Wish i had remembered to try the chocolate strawberries. Anyways, not the tour if you are looking to explore inside the borough market. Its more like a history and tasty treats on the way kinds tour. We cut the tour short as we had a limited time. Appreciate the patience of the tour guide.
