Brixton and Borough market food tour, much more than the name suggests. A great insight into the social history, the culture and the people of parts of London often overlooked by tourists. Discover what salt fish and callalloo taste like ( yum) as well local, cheese makers, breweries off the beaten path. Even in areas frequented by tourists, a local... More

Our group of four had a great tour of the historic London pubs!! We emailed prior to arrival and John was able to schedule a tour for our group. We visited four unique pubs and sampled a half pint at each pub. We learned so much about the history of London that on our bike tour the next day we... More

We've just returned from a two-week trip to Scotland and England, and the bike tour to Hampton Court led by John was one of the high points of a great vacation. The scenery along the way (path alongside the Thames for the majority of the ride) is gorgeous, the pace leisurely (with a pub stop midway), and John was a... More

A fantastic day thank you, despite the weather! The ride was suitable for older and young with plenty of info stops and a refreshment break, so you were not under pressure to keep up and could just enjoy the view. Our group was not all spring chickens. Small group ( it seems max 12.) meant it was very personal and... More

The boyfriend and I did this together and LOVED it. I am training for a triathlon and he, well, I'm just happy he gets out of bed everyday, so clearly this trip is very open to non-athletes. The bikes were super comfy and we had a perfect entrance to Leeds Castle. John was awesome and super friendly. This was one... More

first time visit to Windsor castle and this is the way to do it. John is an excellent tour guide with superb knowledge of the area and all London it seemed. The bike ride is easy and fun and the tour a great insight to Windsor and the Castle. Highly recommended.

My daughter and I visited London for her birthday this May 2013. The highlight of the trip was the bike tour and Windsor Castle experience. Our guide was very friendly and informative, what a delightful way to experience the English countryside. It was truly a superb tour from start to finish. Elaine O.

What a gem, this tour was absolutely delightful. John was friendly, personable, and knowledgable. The small tour size is what made it feel like we were on a stroll with friends. I cannot give this tour enough thumbs up!

We did the Gourmet Food tour which kicked off in Brixton and ended at Borough Market and I have to say, it was excellent! Our guide John was very down to earth, likeable and knowledgeable, and although we live in the neighbouring Herne Hill and know Brixton very well, the tour was full of surprises and really interesting facts and...

We went on the cycle to Windsor Castle tour on Saturday and it was truly an amazing day out! We all met at Paddington and left together for the Thames valley. We took the bikes and cycled along the Thames with some stops to see the panorama and listen to insightful story from our guide John. We arrived at Eton... More
