- A truly great day out in East London!!! Lucy has an impressive knowledge of history and art, including the graffiti pieces in Hackney Wick. And she's a lovely lady as well :) We visited Hackney Wick, Victoria Park, Broadway Market and Shoreditch. The tour was packed with info about the history of each place, plus a lot of street art including hidden gems you wouldn't be able to spot without a guide. I totally recommend this tour to anybody who wants to know more about East London or simply spend a lovely day out surrounded by street art, nature and the buzz of Broadway Market & Shoreditch.

Lissa
- The walk with Lucy was a great day out. From the moment of meeting, she engaged us with a poem, and I didn’t stop being impressed with the history and facts of where we walked, including learning about graffiti. My husband and I were both born and grew up in Hackney, and almost everything was new information to us! Lucy is very welcoming and friendly, and clearly knows what she’s talking about. I highly recommend this tour. Despite the length, the time flew by! I would highly recommend this tour, or any tour that Lucy does.

- The tour was exactly as described. Having said that, it also exceeded our expectations. The tour is a great mix of history and modern life in the East end of London. It starts in an area we did not know before, Hackney Wick. From there, we slowly made our way to Shoreditch, stopping at a lot of lovely places on the way such as Victoria Park, Broadway market and Arnold Circus. The tour guide had many interesting stories including street art, architecture and social developments. Highly recommended!
