Description

 Explore a quaint and vibrant part of London, rich in history and off the beaten track, with artist and native Londoner Sam Cowan.


Consisting of many small and quite distinct neighborhoods, the East End is the area of London east of the Roman and medieval walled City of London and north of the River Thames.


The focus of the street tour is on street art, immigration and the shifting groups of people who have made the East End their home over the years (Cockneys included!). We'll be venturing to Banglatown, seeing trendy Shoreditch and passing by Jamie Oliver's first restaurant - among other off-the beaten track experien


Exploring the East End is a great way to get off of the main tourist track, while staying in walking distance of the historic centre of London.
