About this experience
Private Kensington Market Culinary Experience — with Jessica Halliday
Our most personal experience, led by our lead guide herself. Jessica meets you at your hotel and walks Kensington at your pace over 3 to 3.5 unhurried hours — the full International tour plus extra stops only an Insider knows. Every detail bends to you: the route, the pace, the stories, the pauses for photos or a second helping.
Because it's entirely yours, no diet is off the table — vegetarian, vegan, halal, allergies, all planned around in advance. This is Kensington the way the families themselves would show you: doors opened, names known, nothing rushed.
Come hungry. Welcome home.

Itinerary and highlights
Same cost for up to 4 guests - This is Kensington Market with Jessica Halliday — our lead guide and one of the Insiders who has walked these streets since 2019. She meets you at your hotel and hands the day over to you: your pace, your pauses, your questions, over three to three and a half unhurried hours.
Together you'll walk the full International tour and then some — extra stops and quiet doors that only open for someone the families know by name. Jessica reads a group like sheet music, so no two of her tours are ever the same. Expect generous tastings from Chile to Tibet to Sweden, the stories behind each one, and time to actually savour them.
Because it's entirely private and built around you, every diet is welcome — vegetarian, vegan, halal, allergies, all arranged in advance. Just tell us when you book.
Come hungry. Leave with a bigger world, and a friend in the market. Welcome home.
