Supporting Local
Local London businesses are central to the types of food and drink tours that we offer at A La Carte Tours & Events. We choose to work with the Best of British suppliers, to showcase the delicious local, and seasonal produce in London. We champion local producers and companies who embrace the slow food movement, or who are actively driving change. Fun fact, local produce has higher nutritional value since it has spent less time from its source… you’re welcome!

At A La Carte Tours & Events our blue badge qualified London tour guides are highly experienced in engaging with children and young adults of all ages.
