The Alternative London Tour

Done the tour once, and will certainly go on it again. The guys are super friendly and enthusiastic, the approx two hours flew by, and you will inevitably see the area in a different way and appreciate street art when you see it (which I never did before). Highly recommended!

Done the tour twice, each time ii is different depending on what new Street Art has appeared, will probably go again. Great to see a different side of London, D

Been on the tour twice, really cool, a must see!

Great tour of East End"s street art even if you are not interested in street art go for the great tour Guides like Doug, and a view of the real London. you will also learn where all the real cool bars and hipster hangouts are in London on Brick Lane and Buxton Road.

fantastic. Great information about street art and the back streets of London.

Amazing tour, really would recommend to anyone!! We had Gary taking us around, he was fun, incredibly knowledgable and had great passion! He really made an effort to talk to every member in the group and showed us some great areas of east London :)

Brilliant tour - I would recommend it to anyone with an interest in the history of the east end and street art. Doug was a fantastic guide - entertaining, informative, very enthusiastic. :-)

Been there a year ago and it was great. Can't wait to see the new pieces this year

Brilliant! Absolutely loved it!!

Great tour, saw some amazing street, which I would have never discovered otherwise. Fantastic tour guide (Josh), very knowledgable, entertaining and friendly. This tour is the perfect antedote to standard, over-priced tourist trails.

absolutely fantastic tour, highly recommended

Wonderful. I only wish the BBC offered such erudite and exciting insight in the contemporary art scene!

strongly recomanded, have you ever visited this area? this is an excellent way to begin with!

Amazing tour around the East End. Would really recommend this to everyone who wants to see a different side of London.

This tour was fantastic - I'd highly recommend for both tourists and locals! Our guide (Josh) was fun, informed and incredibly enthusiatic. I can't enthuse enough, it's brilliant, if you like East London, and graffiti art make sure you go along.

We had an absolutely brilliant time even though the rain was pouring down! Our guide (sorry forgot his name) was so knowledgeable and enthusiastic and I would gladly walk it again - no matter what the weather is like! :) Would give more than 5 stars if I could!

Really brilliant tour showing a side of London that has been passing me by despite living here for over 10 years. Lovely organisers and we had a enthusiastic and passionate advocate for street art as our guide. Loads of fun!!

This was an exceptional tour! Our tour guide was extremely interesting, funny, and knowledgable. He did not just make up facts in order to sound intelligent, if he didn't know the answer to a question, or the artist of the peice, then he would tell you. I was surprised at how organized the trip was. We began with 25 people and ended with about 50! I love the relaxed nature of a free tour and I learned a lot about street art and the local's attitudes towards it. Really amazing tour, definitely worth checking out.

Fantastic 1.30 hour tour in East London, amazing art and very nice and enthusiast guide. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience!

My friend and I went along to learn and enjoy east end London. We found it really interesting, learnt alot and the tour guide was nothing but passionate and friendly. We had a really nice afternoon. Def recommend it as something to do whilst in London.

wonderful two hours of my stay in london. surely taking this tour next time upon my visit. five stars both to the tour and to the guide

Great tour, so much to see!! Highly recommended :D

Very interesting tour and great guide! :)

I done this walk with my mum & sis last October. There was so much hidden funky art that we didn't know about and the tour guild was very friendly :) I'd defiantly recommend this!!!

*Meant to add the rating to my post!

London off the beaten path! This was one of the best tours I've ever taken. It is a chance to see amazing works of art in a unique, vibrant neighborhood...all with a super-knowledgable and passionate guide. HIGHLY recommended!

A year ago it was amazing. Looking forward to see how the streets have changed since then.

One of the best things I've done in London. Gary really knows his stuff and is a great guide. Hugely recommended - you'll be missing out if you don't go.

great stuff.
would recommend it to everyone who's interested in street art.

so much to see, great tour and Gary has done his research. Highly recommend this as a great way to spend the afternoon...

Loved the Tour!

A fantastic way to spend a few hours...Gary was passionate, entertaining, knowledgeable and we loved it!

10/10!

5/5. Top tour, thanks Gary! A jam packed tour full of information, sights and sounds of the East End. Would recommend to anyone who wants to see a very interesting side of London and learn about the history of the East End. And, if you get a chance, ask Gary to tell you the bollard story, honestly one of the most interesting bollard stories I've ever heard.
A very good tour.

Brilliant tour. Gary is full of information about street art and the history of the East End. Having lived near E1 for 8 years, most of this was still new to me and some of the street art he showed us was beautiful. Would recommend to anyone - Londoner or not.

Amazing tour. Gary was great! This was a side of London I would have never seen on my own. I've told everyone about it - and will go on the tour whenever I'm in London! Thanks.

Had an excellent few hours, it was a brilliant tour, leart loads about the east end and saw some amazing art. Would definitely recommend it, for visitors and londoners too.

Really really really really good tour!

dooooo it!

Fantastic tour last night! Gary shows truly amazing street Art which we are usually too much in a hurry to notice.

Great guide! Amazing tour which showed me a part of London I thought I already knew. I'll be doing this again and again.

awesome tour...the best way to explore the east london!
