Very enjoyable! - A very nice way to both see something from the bricklane area and also enjoy some fine dishes! Isaac was very relaxed guiding us through East End. Afterwards, you don’t need any food for at least a couple of hours 😉

Don't miss this! - Great, great tour. Niall was just amazing. Funny, smart and SO knowledgeable! This "food tour" was so much more....a deep dive history of this area of London, led by a passionate guide. And by the way, INCREDIBLE food. Would recommend this, and Niall, to everyone!
