Literature Tours

    Literature tours are a wonderful way to see the beautiful landscapes that inspired great authors and poets. Not surprisingly, as we are an English-speaking nation, the most popular destinations for our literature tours are Britain and Ireland.

    Imagine reading the scene where Cathy comes back to Heathcliffe in Wuthering Heights whilst actually standing on the moor or reading Wordsworth's poetry out loud in the Lake District. You could read the climactic scene from Tess of the D'Urbevilles at Stonehenge or the opening scene from Great Expectations in the graveyard.
