Free Walking Tours in Brixton

A delightful tour full of interesting insights. Even as a local I learned things and discovered places I hadn’t been to before. Hinesh was a wonderful guide, offering informed commentary but not overdoing it.

Hinesh presents a fantastic information-rich story of Brixton. Starting at the iconic 1816 windmill, Hinesh weaves tales of cinema, statesmen, superstars and sewage, spanning over 200 years of history, bringing to life the history and culture of this fascinating part of London. My excitement about Brixton was thoroughly re-invigorated. I would highly recommend this tour.

Thank you Hinesh for a wonderfully informative tour! You knew so many things and were excellent at answering questions. I’m a local lady and I still learnt lots about Brixton!

Hinesh’s weaves history, architecture, culture and development into a highly engaging and enjoyable walk through Brixton. Highly recommended both for the tour and the experience of an under appreciated part of London!

The walking tour led by Hinesh had everything I was looking for and more. It was informative and full of interesting historic facts about Brixton and its people from further past to more recent history to the present. Showing a side of London that maybe not every tourist initially might consider but definitely should. Hinesh came well prepared with facts and figures and presented it all in an engaging and truly entertaining way. I will definitely recommend his tour to any visiting friends in the future.

What a fantastic tour! Have lived in Brixton for years and wanted to learn more about the incredible history of the area. Loads of interesting facts, but done in a fun and entertaining way. Would recommend to Brixton locals just as much as I would to visitors.

Birth place of David Bowie, our family was excited to sign up for Hinesh's Brixton Line walking & history tour. Starting at London's still functioning 1816 windmill (so cool! with local cooperative who've set up shop just next door and are still milling flour) and winding our way along Brixton's history, Hinesh was a fantastic, engaged and engaging raconteur. We pondered population, spotted a gas pipe (just guess what that's for?!), listened for buried rivers, traversed Roman roads and covered Brixton's history from opulence to 1980s riots. He even timed our tour to a thoroughly impressive drum parade through the colorful Brixton covered markets. We couldn't have asked for more and look forward to following the Brixton Line as it evolves! Thank you, Hinesh, for a great day out!

Hinesh gave us a really interesting and encompassing tour of Brixton. He really invoked a vision of Brixton throughout history, pointing out some great architecture and points of geographical change. I would say it's a really great tour if you're interested in social history particularly the history of black people in London.
