Dickens' London takes you to places that have changed little since the days when Dickens knew them – a city hidden but of another time. Here Dickens worked and was inspired to write his greatest works.

Follow us to gaze upon the house to which Dickens came to recover from the death of his beloved sister-in-law, Mary Hogarth. Stand outside the home of Dickens great friend and business adviser, John Forster. It was in this house that Dickens, freshly returned from Italy, gave a private reading from his newly completed, the 400 year old Old Curiosity Shop (perhaps) and streets where you can well imagine Pip, Micawber, Pickwick and Scrooge going about their daily business.

It’s a London that evokes atmospheric alleyways, flickering gas-lamps and hackney carriages. Old alleyways, twisting lanes, places where those who knew Dickens best lived, are all included on the walk. And with a genuine authority as your guide you know that you will be seeing the best that Dickensian London has to offer
