Hello and welcome to John Thorpe's Carriage Tours in this lovely year of Seventeen Hundred and Ninety! I believe you wrote to our company about taking a literary tour of our fair city. Well then, we have a variety of options for you. Start wherever you like: visit the homes of some of our finest writers, stop in at one or two of their favorite places of leisure, take in one of their theatrical masterpieces or step into the role of one of their characters and explore the city as they did.

If you'd rather take the "self-guided" tour, we would highly recommend using this map to journey directly to the sites that most interest you. In fact, navigating the city on one's own is often the best way to discover its many hidden treasures!
