About this activity

Spend Sunday like a Londoner and discover a side of the city many visitors never see.

I’m Rich — a qualified London guide, East Londoner and son of a market trader — so London’s markets have always been part of my world.

We’ll head away from the traditional tourist trail and explore some of my favourite corners of East London, from Broadway Market and Regent’s Canal to Hackney City Farm, Columbia Road Flower Market, Brick Lane and Old Spitalfields Market.

Along the way, I’ll share the stories, characters and communities that have shaped this fascinating part of London, with plenty of local insights, great photo opportunities and personal recommendations.

There’s also time to experience the markets themselves — browse the stalls, soak up the atmosphere and, of course, try some of the incredible food along the way.

Londoner’s tip: skip breakfast. You’ll want to come hungry!
