Good to Know
The tour typically takes 60-90 minutes, though you can spend as long as you like exploring stalls and sampling products. Borough Market operates Wednesday to Saturday only, with full trading Thursday to Saturday. Early morning visits offer a more relaxed experience with better access to vendors.
Download the audio tour app before arriving and bring headphones or earbuds. Ensure your phone is fully charged for the complete experience. Wear comfortable walking shoes as you'll be standing and walking on uneven surfaces. Bring cash as many vendors prefer cash payments for small purchases, though most larger stalls accept cards.
The market gets extremely busy, especially at weekends. Many vendors offer free samples, but it's polite to make purchases if you enjoy multiple tastings. The market has limited storage facilities, so consider bringing a cool bag if purchasing perishable items. Borough Market sits near London Bridge station with excellent transport links, though parking is extremely limited so public transport is recommended.
Combine your market visit with other London Bridge area attractions to make a full day of exploring this historic part of the capital.
