Overview of your London tour:

The world's greatest fictional detective first appeared in print in 1887's A Study In Scarlet, by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. There followed three more novels and 56 short stories, mostly narrated by Holmes' friend and biographer, Dr John H Watson. As well as being the greatest fictional detective, Sherlock Holmes is also the best known, listed in the Guinness World of Records as the most portrayed literary character in film and TV history. We will be visiting many locations seen in the BBC series 'Sherlock', starring Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman. London appears so often in the Sherlock Holmes series of books that it is almost a character in its own right. There are over 200 Holmes landmarks in London, and we will be driving around the most important in my licensed London cab. Sherlock Holmes' creator, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, was an absolutely fascinating character and the most successful author of his generation. We will be visiting the London locations associated with him on this tour.
