Discover Jane Austen’s London with a historic walking tour

Have you fallen in love with Jane Austen novels like "Pride and Prejudice", "Emma", and "Persuasion"? So have I. On this walking tour, I’ll use Jane’s letters and novels to bring the author’s London to life, uncovering the stories behind every stop. • We’ll start at the site of the hotel where Jane stayed with her family in the late 18th century. • We’ll journey past the gardens, theatres and assembly rooms that Jane visited. Some were prime spots on the “marriage market.” • On our walk through Mayfair, St. James’s and Covent Garden, we’ll learn about her publishing journey from start to finish, including taking in the home of the Prince Regent, with whom Jane had an intriguing relationship. You’ll come away with a richer understanding of Regency society, its allure, and its vices—all seen through Jane’s eyes. Plus, you'll take away a mini guide to Jane's London to remember her experiences by. The next time you read her novels, you’ll be able to picture some of the places she writes about!

Karl Marx’s London: guided walking tour with a historian

Take a tour through the streets of Soho, the bustling central London district which in the 1850s was home to thousands of radical political exiles - including the young German philosopher Karl Marx. Guided by Dr Thomas Jones, an expert and scholar in refugee history, you’ll see the sites that shaped the lives of Marx and his growing family as they struggled to establish themselves in an unfamiliar country where they would spend the rest of their lives. We’ll assemble in Leicester Square, where in 1849 the Marxes joined hundreds of refugees escaping the collapse of Europe’s 1848 revolutions and found shelter at the nearby German Hotel. We’ll go on to visit the Marx residences at Dean Street, where they contended with poverty and disease as they navigated the perils of life in mid-Victorian London. We’ll see the headquarters the Communist League and the International Working Men’s Association, radical societies that Marx joined and for which he produced some of his most famous writing, including the Communist Manifesto. Along Soho’s winding streets, we’ll see the pubs and café’s where Marx’s fellow exiles gathered and made their plans to reignite revolution in Europe. As we stroll, Dr Jones will explain the details Marx’s life in exile, the impact of his time in exile on his ideas, and why London – and Britain- was the asylum of choice for refugees trying to change the world.

British Museum Tour - History, Art and Conflict

The British Museum is a fascinating but also challenging place to visit.. the sheer number of artefacts and stories to discover can be quite daunting. This tour will guide curious visitors along a fun and often surprising narrative to discover the beauty of ancient civilisations and to come up close to staggering works of art. There are hidden mythologies, art, mysticism, and history galore. There are also current debates in regards to some artefacts on display. Some of the stories involve violent colonial exchanges, some involve looting, others involve questionable practices of ownership. I try to explain their arrival at the museum and update on their complicated status. Knowing about these stories generates constructive discussion of the issues involved, and I try to cover all points of view and invite my guests to share theirs. This is walk to discuss about all this together on a two hour tour. Some of the subjects we’ll cover will be: Ancient Greek temples and gods Deities and warrior kings from Mesopotamia Roman artwork and legacy Weapons from Australia Anglo-Saxon and Viking treasures Mesoamerican rituals Royal treasures from the Kingdom of Benin Statues and temples from India Artefacts from China Statues and mummies from Egypt …and many more fascinating bits of history.
