If you want to enjoy a curated sampling of the best of Borough and Leadenhall Markets (and beat the crowds, to boot), take this tour. Sue hosted a wonderful tour that offered variety of cultural touch points: from Bridgette Jones and Harry Potter to the ultimate sausage roll to architectural history. This is more than a food tour in the best way possible. Skip breakfast and come hungry!! You’ll try a variety of savory and sweet bites, from traditional favorites to insta-worthy treats. Thank you, Sue and Katie, for a wonderful tour!

Would recommend this tour to anyone interested in going to the Borough Market. What a great way to learn the history, eat around, and see London. Our guide, Sue, was knowledgeable, fun, and a delight. Could have done without the first and last stop as they didn’t feel unique to London. But, they were a nice opportunity to sit and converse as a group. We would have been lost in the market had we not been guided by Sue’s expertise!
