Dickens London

Imagine exploring hidden courtyards and tucked away passageway that have changed little since Dickens wandered through them in search of inspiration. Picture yourself stepping through an ancient gateway and gazing upon a soot -stained hall that is just as it was when Dickens would have seen it in life. Place yourself at the very locations where some of Dickens’s most memorable characters played out some of his greatest scenes.

IMAGINE NO MOR, because on this delightful walk you can join Charles Dickens on a voyage of discovery through the streets of his London. You will enter the tranquil oasis of which Dickens wrote:- “who enters here leaves noise behind” (a description that still holds true today).You will look up at the stately old building where Dickens greatest friend lived and the room in which Dickens gave a private reading from one of his Christmas books. You will step through a sturdy set of heavy oak gates in the very footsteps of Dickens himself, and listen to his description of one of the loveliest hidden courtyards in central London. You will stand beneath the cloisters and see the spot where the memorable opening of Bleak House took place; follow Dickens down the narrow alleyway where his literary career began “one evening at twilight” and you will gaze upon the streets of the Victorian Metropolis through the eyes of a host of immortal characters, including Oliver Twist, Pip, Mr Pickwick and Ebeneezer Scrooge.

And since your guide is an expert on the life, times and works of Charles Dickens your passage through the timeless world of old and secret London will be made memorable by extensive quotes from the pen of England’s greatest novelist ever.
