About this tour

Explore London’s literary past and turn its streets into a spark for your own writing. Led by an award-winning novelist with a PhD in Creative Writing, this 120-minute workshop blends literary history and city anecdotes with readings from major English writers.

Rather than simply listening, you’ll respond to your surroundings through creative writing exercises designed for everyone, from first-time writers to seasoned novelists. The atmosphere is kind and inclusive, giving you room to experiment, observe, and find fresh ideas in the city. Bottled water is provided. Meet on the green in Bunhill Fields Burial Ground, and bring a notebook, at least one pen, and an umbrella in case of rain. Public transportation options are available nearby, and service animals are allowed.

Join this London poetry workshop to see familiar streets through a writer’s eyes and leave with new inspiration for your work.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.00 from 2 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

How the score works and rating distribution in London
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 6.9.
