Literary Day Tours
If you only have a limited time in London, we can get you to where you want to go! Such a rich tapestry of literary history awaits you both in London and a short distance away that you can choose to see in a day if your schedule won’t permit a longer tour.
See the homes where great authors lived and worked along with the settings, the landscapes, towns and villages that inspired them. Along the way we will see some of the tourist icons (far from the maddening crowds) and meet a few locals.
