The good news is that I am doing my fourth season of Virtual Guided Walks. On the other hand I had to cancel my first season of outdoor walks since Covid. For more details of the programme click here:
I have a large repertory of walks, tours, and lectures in my backpack. I mostly give them for two excellent organisations. London Walks, and Road Scholar.
I will begin physical walks again on once it is allowed and safe.
My next study tour for Road Scholar is …. Well who knows, (hopefully Sept 2021) but ?
Physical Walks for London Walks
When they begin again I should be doing one every Thursday (from 7th Jan 2021) – an archaeology walk at 2.30 and a history and literature one in the evening at 6.30. I am sharing them with a colleague so I will be doing every other week.
Virtual Walks for London Walks
My new series of Virtual Walks begins on January 14th with a literary look at Roman London. More details of the programme click here:
Road Scholar Programmes
Once upon a safe time in the summer I gave a programme called ‘London’s Neighbourhoods‘ which is a great short tour of London with a day in the East End taking in the Street Art, a Day in the City, Greenwich and Bermondsey.
Also, I led one called ‘Quintessential Britain’ which takes in London, Oxford, Bath, Stonehenge, Cotswold, Chester, Wales, Haworth, York, Edinburgh and other places en route.
A complete list of my repertory of walks. lectures, study tours can be found here:
