A Dickensian Christmas Walking Tour

Join fellow IIL members for a Christmas walking tour! 

On this festive evening walk around the City, we will see lights, Christmas trees, a historic market, secret alleyways and locations from Dickens’ A Christmas Carol.  

Led by Blue-Badge guide and author Anne Fletcher, you’ll discover how Londoners celebrated this time of year since Roman times and visit some of the places that inspired Dickens to write A Christmas Carol, helping to invent the Christmas we enjoy today.  

This will be a great opportunity to connect with other members in a relaxed environment, and round off the evening with a festive drink at a historic City of London pub. 

The walk will make its way from New Change (next to St. Paul’s Cathedral) at 5pm, finishing at Leadenhall Market at approximately 6:30pm.  

Your ticket price includes a festive post-walk drink from 6:30-7:30pm at: 

Old Tom’s Bar (Monday 14 December) 
The Swan Tavern (Wednesday 16 December)
