About this experience
Treat yourself to a very small group tour (Max 10 People) to the sites immortalised by one of the most famous authors in the world, Charles Dickens. This tour takes you on a journey through Dickens London, focusing on the story "A Christmas Carol" perfect to get you in the festive spirit. See the very sites that still survive much as Ebeneezer Scrooge would have remembered them. Your guide will bring to life the Hidden Courts, Alleys and Taverns featured in Dickens work. The tour includes a stop at one of London's oldest pubs, with a fire to warm you as you find a cosy corner and perhaps enjoy a mulled wine. Charles himself was known to be a regular, as was the notorious Hellfire Club. • Get into the festive spirit and follow in Scrooges Footsteps • Real locations featured in the stories • Explore hidden Alleys, Courts, and Taverns • Relaxed Pace • Very small group.

In recent years this beautiful market has been used in the Harry Potter Films. But Charles Dickens used this location in A Christmas Carol. It was here that Scrooge sent the boy to fetch the largest Turkey on Christmas morning when he awoke as a reformed man.
