Take a virtual tour to discover some of the many places associated with the great Victorian novelist Charles Dickens. Although Dickens, who wrote under the pseudonym “Boz”, is closely linked with London and the Medway Towns of Kent, we will discover Dickens links all over the world and our tour will even take us as far as Melbourne in Australia.
