Camden markets
by johnfromoz
Just wondering, is it better to visit the Camden markets in the morning or afternoon? Is one more crowded than the other? Will either catch the waterbus there or leave via the waterbus depending on your advise. Many thanks in advance.

Camden opens at 10 and the first couple of hours are usually the quietest with the crowds building up through the day. The markets are open 7 days a week but weekends are much busier than during the week when not all the stalls will be open.

Weekends can be very busy indeed, especially if the weather is decent.
But even in the week I'd prefer to be there earlier rather than later, from a crowd point of view.

Morning!
This is a great opportunity to buy chinese food or Falafel from the various stalls inside and enjoy a sort of picnic in the bustling surroundings.
These are usually inexpensive, hot and very tasty and the reason my family enjoy going there!
In winter, there are also stalls selling mulled wine/Gluhwein or mulled cider......mmmmm

Is this the company that you are using for the canal trip?

If so, note that the commentary is only given one direction and that is from Little Venice to Camden.
"On the leg from Little Venice up to Camden there is a live commentary from our trained guides who will tell you all about the canal's history from 1800 to the present day."
Whichever you decide, having lunch there is a great idea, lots of different booths with all kinds of cheap ethnic offerings.
