Brixton Day Out

“Arnold Circus in Shoreditch is built from the rubble of a demolished slum… this I didn’t know until I read a Trip Stylist city guide. The walking tours of the capital take tourists off the beaten track whilst discovering great places to eat and drink. Which made me wail, “I like walking, I like London… HEY! How come tourists get all the fun?” But it turns out my strop was quite uncalled for. You see, the great thing about the guides is they celebrate local businesses, highlighting places to have brunch or stop for coffee whilst strolling through that local area. And they make you look at the city in a new light. If you work near Spitalfields, how often do you pause to consider the classic Georgian architecture? But we should, and that’s what these guides remind us. We can all be tourists any day we choose.” – Le Cool London website

“My boyfriend and I tried the East End Sunday guide a couple of weeks ago. Although we've been in that part of London countless times, through the guide we discovered many hidden gems the area has to offer which we probably wouldn't have found otherwise. This guide is perfectly set up for a Sunday: the area it covers is really lively, full of food stalls, a flower market, a city farm and live music on most street corners! There are great food and drink recommendations spread out throughout the guide. The guide itself is easy to use and smartly presented. All you have to do is print it off. Really liked that we could use it independently and at our own pace, as not always keen on guided tours with lots of other people. The maps are well designed and easy to follow. We love the thoughtful touch of the 'Did you Know' facts - it was interesting to find out about the quirky history of what we were seeing along the walk .” – Natasha

“I love living in London and think I know it pretty well. However thanks to Trip Stylist, I have discovered that there are so many hidden gems in my home city. I bought the Temple Tranquility guide and had a fantatastic day out. Wandering around the city was great and I particularly enjoyed following the guide off the beaten track to find out about the history of the area and the people who lived there long ago. So what are you waiting for, treat yourself to a guide today!” – Lucy
