London is marked by books
Walk in the footsteps of London’s greatest writers
Hello! We’re Bookmarked London - a group of London writers, poets and actors who are passionate about London’s rich bookish and literary history.
London might well be the city with the richest literary history in the world.
Round every corner is a scene, a park or a pub that has inspired at least one of the greatest writers in the English language.
We run private tours for corporate groups and school groups.
We also run a range of publicly bookable tours through GuruWalk:
Contact us at adam@bookmarkedlondon.com if you’d like to make a private booking for any of the above tours.
About Me
Hello! I’m Adam - local writer, performer and ex-lawyer who has swapped courtrooms for cobblestones. I am the chap who will be guiding your tour.
Bookmarked is my love letter to London’s literary greats. I was ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ reviewed on TripAdvisor and GetYourGuide before going fully independent this summer.
I bring London’s literary history to life with wit, heart, and the occasional bit of gossip and/or swearing (though will tone this down if there are kids on the tour).
I run publicly bookable tours and pub crawls in the footsteps of some of the capital’s greatest writers.
I also run bespoke private tours. I will script and devise a route based on your favourite authors for differents group, and generally do stag/hen-dos, book club outings and birthday parties.
Email me at adam@bookmarkedlondon.com or DM me on socials @bookmarkedlondon for availability and booking.
