Full description
Start with a classic British breakfast before moving on to sausage roll, a national favorite. Satisfy your sweet tooth with a comforting British dessert— a warm, buttery fruit crumble. You’ll try it at the place that’s earned national fame. Of course, no visit to Borough Market would be complete without trying perfectly crispy fish & chips.
Between tastings, uncover Southwark’s hidden gems, from a historic pub made famous by Bridget Jones’s Diary to Clink Street, home to one of London’s oldest prisons. Cross the Thames and enter the City of London, where you’ll see a monument to the Great Fire of London, commemorating the 1666 blaze that reshaped the city.
Before reaching Leadenhall Market, indulge in a final sweet treat—delicate, melt-in-your-mouth meringue confections from a celebrated French pastry chef. Then, step inside Leadenhall Market, a breathtaking Victorian marketplace with ties to London’s medieval past. A must-visit for film lovers, this stunning arcade has appeared in multiple blockbuster movies, including Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone.
Your final stop is an intimate wine bar, where an expert sommelier will guide you through a perfect wine and cheese pairing to end your culinary adventure.

Reviews
The tour was great and having priority on the boat was excellent
If you’re reading this, book it now! You’ll be one of the first on the boat and get the best spot before anyone else. Daniela (aka “Daniel”) treated us exceptionally well from start to finish. Her knowledge of the falls and the stories behind them was the perfect balance of informative and entertaining. She keeps you laughing throughout the tour and enjoys the experience right alongside you as if it were her first time seeing it. 10/10 — I would recommend this tour to anyone. As an added bonus, our group had only four people, which made the experience absolutely incredible and much more personal. Thanks again, Daniel! 😉
