“We had the best time with Ricky. He took us to places we would have never even thought to visit and the food was delicious! Unlike other food tours we’ve been on where you get a bite or two at each stop, on this tour we got multiple meals! At every stop there was so much food that we were able to pack it up and take it back with us, which was perfect for a midnight snack or a quick bite the next day. We learned a ton about Indian spices, we visited the Indian market and got a really nice history lesson during our walks to the different…”

“We normally hate tours but Tom was hands down one of the best guides we have ever had, the level of knowledge he has on the area, food, history of how it all comes together was worth the price alone. If we ever become uber rich we would like to just have Tom guide us through all our journeys abroad.”
A small-group London e-bike ride that zips past Westminster, St Paul’s, Shakespeare’s Globe, the Clink, and Borough Market in 2h15.
“The guide was good and knowledgeable but the tour felt rushed. We had a large group for the morning traffic which caused delays. The tour got off late due to an issue with getting the bikes out of the garage area. Definitely need more time at Buckingham palace (we had about 5 minutes after the tour guide finished for pictures and should have at least 15) and at the Borough Market (we were given 15 minutes to explore and should have had at least 30 to try and explore more- we didn’t even get to both sides of the market in 15). I’d rather pay a bit more and have…”
