From centuries-old family businesses to trendy modern shops, you’ll discover a truly local side to London as you sample a range of classic British dishes and meet the faces of Southwark’s diverse food scene.

I would have given this tour 5 stars, but bloggers took part in our tour and impacted the experience for those of us who paid for the tour. Dani, the guide was exceptional. The members of the tour felt awful for Dani as these bloggers slapped a microphone on her and just slammed her with cameras and video recorders. No one wanted to ask questions after these late arriving bloggers joined our tour. That said, the food was varied and well placed in order of tastings. I have taken numerous Devour tours in many different locations and the food and structure has always been good. I do hope Devour thinks twice before giving away free tours to bloggers while having them participate with real paying customers. And FYI, I did write directly to Devour my concerns prior to writing this public review but did not receive a response.

1) Dani was the best guide! Her knowledge and humor throughout was the perfect accompaniment to the delicious food. She effortlessly had our group interacting and having a great time with one another. My friend and I really enjoyed our time with her and the group.
2) The tour itself is curated so well. It’s spaced out to have you tasting some amazing food interspersed with historical knowledge of some important sites in the area. I learned a lot!
3) Devour Tours has some great relationships with the vendors, and the spots they have picked out for the tour are 👌🏻. Great balance between dishes and you only go to the best spots. (In fact, my friend and I can’t wait to go back to some of them!)
Overall, this tour is a must. (By the way - this was my first food tour and this certainly won’t be my last. And I’ll be choosing devour tours 😉.)

DO NOT MISS THIS TOUR! My husband and I LOVE Devour tours and take one in each city that we visit. We always try to do it on our first full day as it is the BEST way to learn about local customs, local foods, and support, truly, family owned businesses. London was no exception! And if you think London does not have good food, boy are you mistaken!
We were lucky enough to Alice who was knowledgeable, kind, and extremely witty! She was efficient, made sure we hit all the right stops, and always ensured that we had plenty of tasters! I am not posting any photos as I do not want to spoil any of the deliciousness including a humble addition (*wink*). She also gave us some free time to explore the market which was really fun.
Whether its your first time in London or you've been there before, definitely definitely definitely worth adding this to your list!

Becki was an amazing guide! Funny, personable, and informative, it was easy to converse with her and ask her any question on our minds. Also, the food choices were superb - I was so impressed! Never would have known to visit this market/specific vendors otherwise, and so grateful I did!

Sue was an amazing guide!!!! She made the tour easy to follow and enjoy. It’s perfect for solo travelers, as a way to work around the city and taste things we’ve seen on Instagram.

This was a great tour. Peter was a fabulous guide. My only recommendation is to consider shortening it by an hour, and let people explore on their own after the tour...rather than in the middle. We were disappointed we didn't get to go to the restaurant under the bridge due to it being closed.

Our guide, SUE, was amazing.
We have participated in 50+ Viator offerings and SUE is at the top of the heap, plus JOE LaROCKO in New York for the Chelse Market & Highline Food Tour.

We had our flight cancelled to onion the day before our booked tour…we cancelled 24 hours and 40 minutes….they say 24 hours notice, this is not true, as we where denied a refund, and purely a reason that was totally out of our control, as we where forced to stay another nite in Budapest….total disappointment, all around
