Explore Ancient Alleyways in the Footsteps of Dickens: A Self-Guided Audio Tour

Explore Ancient Alleyways in the Footsteps of Dickens: A Self-Guided Audio Tour

On this walk we will see actual places that Dickens visited as well as places mentioned in his novels. We start at St Paul's Cathedral, which dominated London in Victorian times. It was near here that the young Dickens worked as a freelance reporter in Doctor’s Commons. He witnessed the old-fashioned and slightly ridiculous legal practice here which led to his contempt of the law, and his famous saying in Oliver twist ‘The law is a ass’. We then wend our way through ancient alleyways and churchyards, such as St Peter's, Cheapside, where the young Dickens first arrived in London. In ‘A Christmas Carol’ Ebenezer Scrooge sees the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come on the steps of the Royal Exchange. Nearby we discover the George and Vulture Inn where Mr Pickwick stayed just before his trial for Breach of Promise in ‘The Pickwick Papers’. The audio plays automatically at exactly the right time and place using your smartphone's GPS and the VoiceMap mobile app, which also works offline.

There is no time to rest in London; you must stroll through Trafalgar Square, take a tour of the lace vaults in Westminster Abbey, and find No. 10 Downing Street, home of the British Prime Minister. Visit Buckingham Palace and see the city from the London Eye.

Get in the spirit of the city

For a taste of the city's business side, head to the City of London, home to the financial center, Tower 42, The Gherkin and other towering buildings. Don't forget to take a break for a traditional five o'clock tea and milk.

Where to relax

Take a break in Hyde Park - you can hire a bike, lounge on the grass or feed the hand squirrels. If you're traveling with kids, take them to King's Cross Station, Platform 9 ¾ of the magical world of Harry Potter.

Non-Tourist London.

Want to feel like a local? Instead of a restaurant lunch, head to Borough Market for great curries, paella and English wine. For a break from sightseeing, stroll along Regent's Canal, known as Little Venice.

Music and Markets

Listen to quality live music from jazz to hard rock in Camden. For shopping and souvenirs, do what Londoners do: hit the street markets. Vintage goods are sold at Camden Market, while rare antiques are sold at Portobello Market.

And four other things to do in London:

  • take a ride on a red double-decker bus;
  • watch the Changing of the Guard at Buckingham Palace;
  • stand at the zero meridian in Greenwich;
  • stroll along the south bank of the Thames.
