Experience the authentic side of London by venturing beyond the typical tourist spots and enjoy a Sunday like a true Londoner. Explore the city’s best-kept secrets and learn about the rich history that makes this area so unique. Wander along London’s hidden canals to discover treasures such as Broadway Market (Farmers Market), Hackney City Farm, Columbia Road Market (Flower Market), Brick Lane Market (Vintage, Crafts, Clothing, and Food), and Spitalfields Market (Vintage, Crafts, Clothing, and Food). A tip for walkers: skip breakfast, as there are plenty of delicious treats along the way!
- I allow a 15-20 mins free time in each market so you are able to have time to discover the hidden gems. Each market is a 10-15 min walk which I fill with some great factual information about the area.

Best market tour ever - I had an absolutely fantastic experience on this London markets tour, and I can’t recommend our guide highly enough. From start to finish, the tour was engaging, well-organized, and full of fascinating insights that you simply wouldn’t get exploring on your own.

Fun and informative tour - This was a great way to explore parts of East London. Rich is a great guy who has intimate knowledge of this area, the markets, and life in East London. He has a great sense of humor and makes everyone feel welcome. I would happily take other tours by Rich.

Fun and authentic London experience - Rich is your guy! We learned so much about London and saw many of the cool places to visit and markets to shop and eat! Our only complaint is that he couldn’t come with us everywhere we went! Lovely and authentic experience in London. Thank you Rich. We will be back!

The best markets experience - Rich was an amazing guide. He took us to several Sunday markets, and the experience was incredible. Besides tasting great food, we also learned a lot about the history of the area, the street art, and many other interesting things.
Rich was really nice and friendly and made me feel very welcome, especially since I joined as a solo traveler. He made everyone feel comfortable and was always attentive to how everyone was doing.
I highly recommend him as a guide, and this tour in particular. He has a lot of knowledge and shares it in a very engaging way. I would love to join more tours with him in the future!

Discovering London with a True Londoner - I spent several days in London and joined a number of tours while I was there. Two of them were with Rich — and I’d make the same choice again without a second thought. What can I say? Rich is a fantastic guide, but above all a true Londoner.
His tours with London by a Londoner are lively, engaging and full of fascinating insights. He draws you in straight away and lets you experience the city through the eyes of someone who genuinely lives and loves it.
You can tell how passionate Rich is about what he does and how much he enjoys showing you his London — quite simply, he’s the best.

Coolest tour everr! - This is the coolest and tastiest tour ever! I really enjoyed it and Rich ist such a cool fellow.
He showed us areas that are so vibrand, diverse, trandy and unique. Don't eat breakfast, coz there is a lot of amazing street food from so many cultures. Its really amazing. I spend a lot of time at a japanese stand and i practised my japanese with the guys :). It was awesome. Rich also showed us some street art, so you have a nice "bonus" there :)
Thx Rich! Greetings from Burgas, Bulgaria. Cheers mate :)
