Description
Join a Camden-born local and explore beyond the busiest parts of Camden Town. Wander through colourful streets, discover striking street art, uncover hidden corners and hear the stories that have shaped one of London's most famous neighbourhoods.
We'll begin around Camden's famous markets, Camden Lock and Regent's Canal, taking in the sights and atmosphere that attract visitors from around the world. Then we'll leave the busiest streets behind and explore a different side of Camden, one that's easier to miss if you don't know where to look.
Discover the Camden behind the postcard
Follow the area's creative spirit through street art, independent spots, historic streets and legendary music locations. Hear stories about the people and places that helped make Camden famous, from Joe Strummer and The Clash to Amy Winehouse, Oasis, Blur and The Libertines.
Along the way, we'll visit legendary venues including the Electric Ballroom and Dingwalls, uncover fascinating local history and even hear the story of a notorious Victorian murder — aye caramba!
There's plenty of time to stop, look closer, take photographs and ask questions. I'm also happy to take photos of you or your group on your phone, making the experience easy for solo travellers and couples.
See Camden through local eyes

'We had such a wonderful time with Nicholas our tour guide for today's walking tour. We learnt so much from Nicholas, who is such a knowledgeable guide who shared so many authentic experiences with us and many cool highlights of Camden Town as he was born and raised there in Camden itself. It is highly recommended to walk and learn with him through this journey! More than 5 stars!'
