Fantastic tour of Dickens' London for all ages - We had the most incredible afternoon with Angie walking through Southwark and learning about Charles Dickens' life and times. I've lived in South London for the last 15 years and the tour opened my eyes to the streetscape I've walked blindly through, and connected me to the last two hundred years of its history. Angie was incredibly knowledgable, entertaining and engaging, and delivered a performance that kept our group that spanned ages 7 to 55 gripped. I thoroughly recommend her and the tour.

Fabulous walk - great guide - This walk was a joy, an enthusiastic knowledgeable guide, great location and wonderful subject matter. Even in the pouring rain we managed to enjoy every moment. Will certainly be doing more tours with this guide in the future.
