Free walking tours in Brixton

Very enjoyable and educational tour of Brixton - I've lived in London for 20 years and learned a lot new!

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!

Vert interesting and well presented, Hinesh is very kind and knows a lot about the history of the area!

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.
