Delicious and also a great area to explore- well worth it!
What a novel way to have a meal. So much fun and the food was amazing. The clues were not as difficult as I thought they might have been, what a relief. It was so much fun am already planning to do another soon!!
Response from the operator: Hello, Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We're so happy you had such a fun time completing the maze and enjoyed the food along the way! It's great to hear that you found the clues just the right difficulty. Your feedback means a lot to us and we can't wait to see you complete another maze soon! :) Best regards, The Gourmaze Team

A fun afternoon
We did have fun BUT I'd encourage the owners to play the game anonymously as at one of the stops the workers announced to each other that we were gourmaze and clearly gave us less of something. Disappointing though it didn't ruin the experience overall
Response from the operator: Hello, Thank you so much for sharing your experience! It's great to hear that you had fun completing the maze! Your feedback about receiving less of something because you were a Gourmaze player should not be the case, as the ticket price includes a pre-agreed dish at each stop. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and will make sure to pass your feedback along to the team. Despite the hiccup, we're happy that you enjoyed the overall experience and we look forward to seeing you try one of our other mazes. Best regards, The Gourmaze Team

We really enjoyed the Talisman Treats tour
We really enjoyed the Talisman Treats tour, the what’s app guide worked perfectly and we visited fascinating streets and places that we wouldn’t have known about without the tour. There were three food stops, all with very tasty food and we felt quite full by the end! We would definitely do another tour.
Response from the operator: Hello, Thank you so much for sharing your experience! It’s great to hear that you enjoyed the Talisman Treats Maze and were able to explore new places along the way. It’s also great to hear that you found the WhatsApp tool easy to use and enjoyed the food items, leaving you feeling full at the end. Your feedback means a lot to us and we look forward to seeing you try more of our mazes in the future. :) Best regards, The Gourmaze Team

Taco Trailsman around Shoreditch. Great fun and food! Great
Second Gourmaze we’ve done. We did the Taco Trailsman in Shoreditch. The food was great and such a lovely part of London. Stopped for drinks in the Light Bar and Tavern which were both excellent. Thoroughly recommended.
Response from the operator: Hello, Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We’re happy to hear that you enjoyed the Taco Trade Maze! It’s great to know that you liked the food items and felt that the location was a good fit for the maze. Your recommendation means a lot to us and we look forward to seeing you try more of our mazes in the future. :) Best regards, The Gourmaze Team

Brilliant
This was a gift from our son. We really enjoyed the experience. Food was good. The only thing we would change is that rather than food at each stop it would be nice if the middle one was a drink instead but we this did not detract from us enjoying our time. As it was a gift we don't know how much it cost but had to rate.
Response from the operator: Hello, Thank you so much for sharing your experience! It's great to hear that you enjoyed the experience, especially since it was a present. We're also happy that you enjoyed the food items included. Your feedback about having a drink at the middle stop is definitely noted and will be passed along to the team. We're glad that this didn't affect your experience and we look forward to seeing you try more of our mazes in the future. :) Best regards, The Gourmaze Team

Asian Street Food Treasure Hunt and Self-Guided Tour in London: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for London.
How much does Asian Street Food Treasure Hunt and Self-Guided Tour in London cost?
+
Prices start at £49 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in London usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Asian Street Food Treasure Hunt and Self-Guided Tour in London take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in London is not rushed.
Is Asian Street Food Treasure Hunt and Self-Guided Tour in London worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 41 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in London, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Asian Street Food Treasure Hunt and Self-Guided Tour in London?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Asian Street Food Treasure Hunt and Self-Guided Tour in London suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Asian Street Food Treasure Hunt and Self-Guided Tour in London?
+
Around 14 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in London can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in London and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Asian Street Food Treasure Hunt and Self-Guided Tour in London start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central London within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in London?
+
London's best attractions split cleanly: the museums are free and need no booking, so the paid market is about views, theatre and getting out of the city for a day. That makes value scoring unusually important here, and the Outty Ranking penalises anything charging premium prices for access you could get for nothing. On Outty we rank every London experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The Great British Rock and Roll Walking Tour, Soho Music & Historic Pubs Tour, London Small Group Tour of Historical Pubs. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit London?
+
May to September for long evenings, December for the Christmas markets. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in London?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Asian Street Food Treasure Hunt and Self-Guided Tour in London?
+
Included: Self-guided food walking tour, solve riddles to lead you to your next food stop; An ancient mystery through Soho's buzzing alleys; The tour is run through WhatsApp, no other apps are needed; and Meals. Not included: Alcoholic beverages; Carbonated beverages; and Bring at least 1 mobile phone with WhatsApp downloaded and sufficient battery for the day. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Asian Street Food Treasure Hunt and Self-Guided Tour in London?
+
Start your experience at The Crown & Sceptre. Start the self-guided tour on WhatsApp and your guide Confucius the ancient Chinese Philosopher will give you your first clues. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

+
