Brick Lane Tour - Multicultural Melting Pot

Join Cris to take in the sights and sounds of multicultural Brick Lane, from street art produced by world-renowned artists to the historic Spitalfields market and a mosque that has a long, multi-faith history. Learn about the legacies of the various immigrant groups that have made this part of the East End their home, visit the site of the first fashion emporium and hear about the sinister tales of Christ Church.

This is one of six itineraries from Unseen Tours, an award-winning, not-for-profit social enterprise that offers alternative walking tours through London's most vibrant and interesting neighbourhoods, led by homeless and formerly homeless guides, including Cris.

As well as winning a Responsible Tourism Award and an Observer Ethical Award, tours get excellent reviews on Tripadvisor and offer a unique insight into London life - while giving visibility and a voice to people who often feel unseen and unheard.
