On our journey towards the locations featured in A Christmas Carol we will take in some other Dickens sights. Let's explore the area where Dicken's worked as a junior Clerk. From the mysterious Inns of Court he took inspiration that would later find it's way in to David Copperfield, Great Expectations, and Martin Chuzzlewit.
15 λεπτά Δωρεάν είσοδοςA Tavern with Cellars dating to the 13th Century. This Pub was a haunt of Dickens and a meeting place for the Hellfire Club. David Copperfield drinks here in the Novel of the same name. Shall we rest by the fire and warm up with some Mulled Wine?
30 λεπτά Δωρεάν είσοδοςRight next to the Bank of England, the Royal Exchange is where the Ghost of Christmas yet to come takes Scrooge to see his colleagues discussing his funeral. The steps of the Exchange are the traditional spot where Royal announcements are made. Today you can cross the trading floor, but the bankers are long gone. Now designer shops, and Champagne bars attract the visitors attention.
10 λεπτά Δωρεάν είσοδοςLet's get off the beaten path and head deep into the world of Ebeneezer Scrooge and 'A Christmas Carol' as we visit Scrooge's Counting House, the place where he took supper on Christmas Eve, and Charles Dickens favourite Chop House the George and Vulture. If Dickens was on this tour with us, he would be able to go in to the George and Vulture, find his favourite table, and even order his favourite meal. Not a lot has changed. This atmospheric old tavern was the meeting place of the Pickwick Club and is mentioned over 20 times in the Pickwick Papers. The equally unchanged Tavern round the corner, Simpsons is most likely Scrooge's favourite eating spot. Your guide will explain why!
15 λεπτά Δωρεάν είσοδοςOne of Charles Dickens favorite restaurants and Chop Houses. Mr Pickwick and his famous Club met here. As did the notorious Hellfire Club. The interior of this fine establishment is unchanged since the time of Dickens.
5 λεπτά Δωρεάν είσοδοςWas this Scrooges Dismal Tavern?
5 λεπτά Δωρεάν είσοδοςIn 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.

Richard provides a tour that goes well beyond the inspiration for Dickens Christmas Carol..His account takes you back almost 200 years to many of the very images and places that Charles Dickens would have frequented.. Richard also provided a wonderful lesson on the Inns of Court and their role in the administration of justice emanating from the Westminster area …excellent educator…
We booked a Charles Dickens tour with Richard and it was a highlight of our London trip. He really has a gift for blending history, geography, and literature in his storytelling.
This tour was by far the best experience during our entire stay! Richard was so knowledgeable about Old London and Charles Dickens he literally made the streets, shops, taverns, and buildings come to life!
Great tour. I can imagine it would be even better round holidays. Lots of good information about the history squeezed in with all the dickens info you ever wanted to know. Kids (9 & 11) years old are inspired to dive into their first Charles Dickens novel when we get home.
My husband was NOT looking forward to my choice of the Christmas Carol Tour in London, thinking it would be stodgy and boring. Boy was he wrong and he (and I) absolutely loved it! Richard, our tour guide, made this tour festive, humorous, and full of facts we never knew about Dickens, London, the historical times, and more, while showing us places old Scrooge may have worked and lived. Very fun tour - highly recommend Richard!
I’m sorry I don’t remember our guides name but he had a green jacket and grey bag and an umbrella. The tour took us through the most beautiful parts of London and our guide made The Christmas Carol come to life. It was amazing.
Richard was an amazing and knowledgeable guide. He knew so much and showed us even more. I would recommend the tour and Richard anytime.
The tour and story telling by our host Richard were unbelievable. He was so knowledgeable and took the time to really make the experience amazing for us. I would highly recommend this tour and especially with our tour guide Richard. Just amazing!!!
