Overview

Mobile ticket
Our tour begins at St. John Bakery where we’ll try their delicious doughnuts to get the tour started off right. From there, we’ll walk up Borough High Street stopping along the way to talk a bit about history, restaurants, pubs, and anything else we feel like chatting about. Our second stop is right near Borough Market, one of the oldest public markets in London, where we’ll sample some more amazing donuts. Make sure you pace yourself - it’s a marathon, not a sprint. Our third stop is actually in Borough Market itself where you’ll sample some absolutely stunning doughnuts that are made fresh every day in their pastry school. And our last and final stop at Crosstown Doughnuts will give you a jaw dropping view of Tower Bridge that you have to see to believe. We’re so excited to get this tour started and we hope you can join us!

5.00“My father grew up a few blocks from here, and he’s amused at what the neighborhood has turned into.” This begins a special kind of tour, led by Andy, a special kind of tour guide. This tour is sufficiently unique that it is great tour to go in even if you live in London or are a frequent visitor. The tour is in and around Southwark, one of London’s oldest neighborhoods. Andy is clearly passionate about both history and food. Over the course of two hours, he weaves a story of the area, its connection to London Bridge as a conduit for goods into the city since Roman times and its rough character that has gentrified over time. We saw unique sites neither of us had heard of in several past trips to London. I ask some pretty obtuse questions and Andy was able to answer all of them. The donut stops were also unique and amazing, each different from one another (and including a Michelin-starred establishment!). The tea in the middle was a welcome break from sugary starch. Andy also gave us great reccys for the rest of our trip. Really super.
Wow! Great tour, excellent guide and the donuts… oh the donuts!

5.00This tour was an awesome way to spend a Saturday morning while in London. Bhavani was an awesome guide sharing so much information about London and specifically the area around the Borough Market. And the donuts… wow! They were all incredible! My favorite is a toss-up between the dark chocolate at Crosstown and the raspberry filled from St.John’s. I highly recommend the tour and Bhavani!!
Brilliant!

5.00The Underground Donut Tour is a diamond in the rough, which is beginning to catch on big time. We were blest to have Alex, a gastronomic aficionado, along with his apprentice, Andy as our guides. We saw several significant sites and heard many inside stories, as we stopped at four excellent “donutteries” and an exotic tea shop. Be forewarned that you will get a very substantial donut at each store and will likely be carrying tomorrow’s breakfast home with you. Also, if you don’t like tea, you have a plethora of iced concoctions tailored to suit your fancy! Overall, it was an excellent alternative to the standard London tour. Bravo!
Delicious Donuts & A Proposal in London

5.00Oscar was a wonderful tour guide!! We had so much fun tasting a plethora of delicious donuts, a variety of refreshing tea, and a lot of laughs along the way. Mix that with some fascinating history and it was a 10/10 experience. It ended with a proposal at Tower Bridge (she said yes!!), and Oscar captured the moment with picturesque photography. I would absolutely recommend the Underground Donut Tour to anyone looking to learn about London, with some personality and sweet treats to boot. Thank you so much Oscar, we will remember this forever!
So nice

5.00Let me start by saying, I would recommend this tour to anyone looking to have an unconventional walking tour experience that blows any stodgy hodgepodge historical tour out of the water. Our tour guides Oscar, Jasmine, and Sarah felt like long lost friends by the end of the tour, and my party of 3 enjoyed every stop. 10/10 experience!
Sweet fun in London

5.00Are you ready for doughnuts? I thought I was. This walking tour was a lot of fun. Our tour guide knew quite a bit of history and took us to some out of the way places. You get about five doughnuts on this tour so be prepared. All of the doughnuts were delicious! I really couldn't pick a favorite. The Birds ad Blend tea shop that we stopped at was so good that I have been ordering from the store since we got back to the U>S.
