I'm a writer and filmmaker currently developing my debut feature films. I love meeting new people, discovering great food, and exploring cities through their stories and flavours. When I'm not writing, you'll probably find me out on a run or living the canal-boat life on London's waterways.
Favorite Dish
on the tour? The delicious Pork Bao Buns!

I have been working for Sherpa since the summer season, and absolutely love my job. It is always a pleasure to engage with new people from across the world, and share our passion for food. I am a keen cook so am well placed to share thoughts about cuisines and techniques. I also have a varied background in education and work, having studied Classical Archaeology and Ancient History at the University of Edinburgh, and working extensively as an actor and writer in the UK and Italy. I speak Italian, love watching sport, and am passionate about literature, theatre, music, and history. See you soon!
Favorite Dish
‘Amatriciana’, one of the staple four Roman pasta dishes.

London
I'm Sam, a London-based producer and award-winning screenwriter with a genuine obsession with this city — its culture, its history, and above all, its people. As a storyteller by trade, I have a knack for finding the human detail that brings a place to life. My goal is simple: that every guest leaves with a richer, more personal connection to London than when they arrived. Not just the landmarks, but the stories, the characters, and the hidden corners that make this city unlike anywhere else in the world.
Favorite Dish
Sunday Roast!

I’m Luca, Italian by birth and London based for the last 25 years. I am a currently a freelancer in hospitality and tourism and passionate about hosting and creating connection with people and places. In previous lives, I have been working in the corporate world, owned a gelato business and managed a restaurant, while travelling the five continents driven by my endless curiosity to learn. I am enthusiastic about this city and love to share my knowledge with people visiting. For me enjoying delicious food and sharing unforgettable moments together has always been part of my culture, since I was a little kid in Italy, helping my grandmother making fresh pasta, setting the table, and enjoying a meal with family and friends.

Soho Food Tour: The ultimate London food tour experience. Walk through Soho and Seven Dials sampling traditional British classics like pork bao buns, fish and chips, and sticky toffee pudding alongside the international flavours that make London one of the world's great culinary cities. From Indian curry houses on Brick Lane to Jamaican jerk chicken in Brixton, London's immigrant heritage shaped a food scene unlike anywhere else in Europe. Private Food Tour: For those looking for something more bespoke, our team of expert curators will design a private experience around your interests — whether that's Michelin-starred restaurants in Mayfair, craft ales in historic gastropubs, or hidden street food markets in Borough Market and Maltby Street.
Expert Local Guides: Our knowledgeable guides provide insider insights into London's food scene. Exclusive Tastings: Enjoy specially curated menus and skip the lines at popular spots. Cultural Immersion: Learn about London's rich culinary history and diverse influences. Small Group Sizes: Ensure a personalized experience and intimate atmosphere.
All restaurants featured in our tours are within walking distance of each other. Besides the expected restaurant hopping, we walk a few blocks in between to show you around the neighborhood. There’s A LOT to eat during the tour, so a break in between restaurants is much needed. Getting those extra steps will help you make room for dessert!
Our Soho food tour includes tastings at 4 to 6 local eateries, featuring traditional British dishes like scotch eggs, mature cheddar, and craft cider alongside the multicultural street food that defines modern London cuisine. You'll explore the West End's most vibrant neighborhood with an expert local guide who shares the history behind each stop — from the French Huguenot bakers who shaped Soho's café culture to the post-war Caribbean and South Asian communities that revolutionized British food. Insider tips and a comprehensive food guide for your stay in London included.
The tour typically lasts 3-4 hours, allowing ample time to savor each tasting and learn about London's culinary history. Time will fly by! There’s no better way to see the city.
We will always do our best to accommodate any dietary restriction. Please let us know at least 24hs in advance so we can arrange an amazing menu, be it vegetarian, gluten-free, or lactose-intolerant. Unfortunately, we can't accommodate a vegan diet and maintain the same quality standards
We are on a mission and will not let the weather get in our way! Come rain or shine, the tour will take place.
We will be eating and drinking plenty! No one has ever left our tours hungry. We take the “food” in “food tour” VERY seriously.
