Overview

Named the UK’s No.1 City Walking Tour by The Times and The Sunday Times, this immersive experience brings Indian culture in London to life.

Join Vaishali, a British-Indian guide with roots in Gujarat and East Africa, for a journey of history, food, storytelling, and community. Explore a vibrant Hindu temple, learn about rituals and mythology, and (optionally) enjoy a quiet moment of meditation. Try unique dishes from paan to regional sweets and snacks not found in mainstream restaurants. Discover fabrics and patterns from across India with an optional sari draping experience.

Hear personal stories about Indian traditions, the East African Gujarati community and how they turned Ealing Road into “Little India.” Interactive activities, connections with fellow travellers, and a goodie bag make this a warm, sensory-rich, and deeply personal experience.
