During this 2.5-hour walking tour, you will explore locations that are mentioned in the works of Agatha Christie, as well as those that inspired her and the places of which Christie herself visited, including Mayfair, Chinatown, Theatreland, and Bloomsbury.
Visit some of London’s most famous institutions such as the Garrick Club, the British Museum, and the University of London. On the way, explore how Agatha Christie was inspired by the events and people around her, such as her work in a hospital dispensary and her marriage to Max Mallowen, as well as the works of writers who she admired, such as Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.
Of course, no Agatha Christie London Tour would be complete without a stop outside "the Mousetrap”, the longest-running play in the world where you will learn that this iconic murder mystery has a surprisingly royal origin.
