What a fun experience
This tour gives you the opportunity to not only experience cheese we would never get state side, but the history that goes along with it. The tour guide is not only informative but also funny and make it fun to meet the others on the tour.

Tour guide didn't turn up!
Couldn't tell you if the tour was good as the guide failed to turn up! Was at the Statue of Goddess Diana meeting point at 2.50 pm, called the contact number at 2.57 pm, 3.06 pm, then at 3.13 pm and left at 3.20 pm. NOT HAPPY AT ALL as this was a birthday present. No notification to say it was cancelled. Happy to take your money but receive nothing in return. Have put in for a refund but we had travel expense too for nothing. If I don't receive my money back, I'll be writing another review!

The Cheese Tragedy
Tour guide did not show up. We waited with other people who booked through fever for over half an hour. You get the contact information beforehand but that does not help as he will not respond to messages or calls.
Response from the operator: Dear Sophie, Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We take this matter very seriously and will contact the tour guide to ensure that this does not happen again. Sincerely, The Eatwith Team

crap
Firstly told we are split into teams, come up with a cheese name and encouraged to make cheese jokes. Then taken to Fortnum and Masons which was more crowded than the Tokyo underground and hang around for ten minutes until they've set things up. At that point we left. Had no cheese. Complete waste of time and money. So many better things to do in London.
Response from the operator: Hello, We're truly sorry for the disappointment during the tour. Your feedback is valuable, and we regret the experience didn't meet your expectations. We're addressing this internally to prevent similar occurrences. Apologies once more for any inconvenience caused.

A cheese filled Triumph
Jack was absolutely awesome, he made the tour really fun and I loved all of his cheesy jokes !!! Visited some great places and ate some fabulous cheeses. Would defo recommend.
Response from the operator: Hi, We’re very happy to hear that you enjoyed your Eatwith experience in London. Our mission is to bring people together around food and Jack does just that! Thanks for your great review and see you soon at another Eatwith somewhere around the world!

Taste London: Cheese Tasting & Walking Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for London.
How much does Taste London: Cheese Tasting & Walking Tour cost?
+
Prices start at £46 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 Taste London: Cheese Tasting & Walking Tour 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 Taste London: Cheese Tasting & Walking Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 52 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.4/5 across 8 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in London, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Taste London: Cheese Tasting & Walking Tour?
+
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 Taste London: Cheese Tasting & Walking Tour 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 Taste London: Cheese Tasting & Walking Tour?
+
Around 3 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 Taste London: Cheese Tasting & Walking Tour 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 Taste London: Cheese Tasting & Walking Tour?
+
Included: The chance to try and buy local specialties; Insider tips and recommendations from your local host; Small group tour with a personal local guide; and Delicious food you won’t find anywhere else. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Taste London: Cheese Tasting & Walking Tour?
+
Meet at the Statue of Goddess Diana Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Taste London: Cheese Tasting & Walking Tour offered in?
+
It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Taste London: Cheese Tasting & Walking Tour?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
Is Taste London: Cheese Tasting & Walking Tour wheelchair or stroller accessible?
+
The operator notes: Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.
What happens to Taste London: Cheese Tasting & Walking Tour if the weather is bad?
+
This experience depends on good weather. If it is canceled because of poor weather, you are offered a different date or a full refund.
