A Walk in Dickens’s Neighbourhood: The Audio Tour

Have you ever wondered what London would have looked like in the Victorian era? What would have been the sights, the smells and the noises which surrounded Doughty Street when Charles and Catherine made it their home? 

This self guided walking audio tour uncovers the Bloomsbury that Charles Dickens would have known. Voiced by Blue Badge Tourist Guide Katie Wignall with readings by Ollie Dickens (the great-great-great Grandson of the writer), this hour-long tour leaves from the Charles Dickens Museum and ends at Bloomsbury Square by the British Museum.

This guide is accessed on your own personal device and headphones. On purchasing this tour you will be emailed a unique code which will unlock the content on the Museum's website.

We recommend accessing the tour prior to starting the walk when you are connected to wi-fi, in order to enable the pre-download of the audio guides to occur.

If purchasing it inside the Museum, you can use the free wi-fi onsite.
