What You Will Do

Play a city game where you walk in the footsteps of one of Britain’s greatest writers, Charles Dickens.

You will learn about Dickens’s rags to riches life story and discover the locations that inspired his stories, from pickpockets’ lairs, prisons and courts, to historic pubs and hidden alleyways.

Are you ready for an adventure in Dickens’ London?

Highlights:
Learn about Dickens’s extraordinary life, from child labourer to celebrated writer.
Explore the once brutal and crime-ridden streets of Clerkenwell and the stately legal district of Holborn where Dickens studied and worked.
Discover the darkened bars and inns where lawyers once jostled with scoundrels and Dickens met the colourful characters that would crowd his novels.
Try a new type of experience, the perfect mix between a tour, an outdoor escape game, and a treasure hunt.
