London photo walk: Angel & Islington 🌳
Lauren Alboini
Available for hire
This area is full of fantastic restaurants, cafés, pubs and shops, as well as charming side streets, secret passageways, gardens, markets and some of the most beautiful homes in the city.
It's one of my favourite neighbourhoods in London - and this tried and tested self-guided walk of mine will give you a great flavour of the area.
THIS IS A GREAT WALK IF YOU WANT:
🇬🇧 To see a part of the city with little to no tourists
🇬🇧 A mix of scenes - canals, beautiful homes, shops
THIS INCLUDES:
🤍 Two custom-made interactive routes (short and long versions)
🤍 16-20 points of interest (depending on the length you choose)
🤍 8 recommendations for a coffee, drink or light bite on the way
🤍 Photos I’ve taken of all the stops and surrounding area to give you a clear idea of what you'll see on the way

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Welcome to my page! 👋🏼
When I was 16, I packed my bags and left everything familiar I had ever known in my hometown of Toronto to move to Switzerland. That year away changed so much for me and had such a meaningful influence on my life, outlook and perspective.
And the travel bug has been with me ever since. So after visiting nearly 50 countries, living in four, and collecting 20 years worth of adventures, lessons and insights, I’m eager to channel all of that into helping others.
🗺️ What I’m great for: mature travelers, couples, solo wanderers and families who enjoy authentic experiences, great food and drinks, a mix of classic sights and off-the-beaten-track gems, and being outside.
🌍 What you can find here: guides, itineraries, lists and self-guided tours of London, UK, Europe and beyond. I’ve only chosen some of the places I’ve been recently so everything here is fresh and relevant.
🇬🇧 My specialty: London. I’ve lived here for over 9 years and have a hugeeee treasure trove of high-quality places, intel and advice so I focus my custom itinerary and curated recommendation services on only this city.
💁🏻♀️ Why trust me: my track record of delighted clients speaks for itself, reflected in the wonderful five-star reviews they’ve shared 🤍

THANK YOU for being here! 🙏
