# Private Food Tour: 7+ Classic British Tastings in Borough Market

**Guidekin's take:** Explore Borough Market through British cheeses, sausage rolls and fish and chips on a private tour for your party. Food and drinks, including non-alcoholic choices, are included; dietary needs require advance checking and transport is extra. 4.94 from 268 reviews at €230 per person for 3h 30m.

## Overview

Your guides are real foodies, and they have made it their goal to introduce visitors to the ‘excellence of British’ traditional food. The guides will be sharing with you their local knowledge of the dining culture and latest gastronomy trends. The local guides will take you to food shops, beloved by the area’s locals, and we are sure that you’ll fall in love with them too.

As a private tour, everything works around you! Our start times are much more easy going, dates can open up. It's a much more intimate and cozy experience. No need to shout over other tourists, you will have every question answered, and leave feeling like a native yourself!
