You can go at your own speed, pause the audio for a snack or a photo op, or even split the tour across days—just remember where you left off! To help you know where you are in the tour I will announce the poi number for each step. Keep in mind that audio clips from the show are included, so they might not be suitable for little ones. To make sure you have a blast, here are a few things to remember... The tour will give you turn-by-turn directions and will automatically move on when you pass invisible markers I’ve set up along the route. By the way, if you can see the markers or me in the backseat, then maybe somebody else should drive. ha ha ha! I cannot promise you the jokes will get better, but I can promise you a great tour! The narration lengths are based on speed limits, so stick to those and you won’t miss a thing. Let’s have a great time, but safety first! Stay aware of your surroundings, drive carefully, and obey the rules of the road. I also suggest no munching or sipping for the driver as well! All stops are on private property, so let’s be courteous to the homeowners and the neighborhood. No trespassing, blocking driveways, or double parking, please. If you want to snap a pic, park legally and stroll over to your chosen spot. When you are ready to move on just check your device to see where to go. If you missed some narration or you think you missed a stop, hit the arrow at the top of the screen to go back to the tour details page and scroll down to the poi to review the written script. Then scroll back to the top and select the "starting point" button, choose the next "POI" from where you are at now, and hit "Start Tour". Directions will take you to the next tour marker. Lastly, we aren't responsible for any accidents, property damage, or injuries you might encounter while enjoying this audio adventure. The tour kicks off in the JC Penney parking lot at Cottonwood Mall in Albuquerque. I’ll catch up with you when you reach the starting point!

If you’re anything like me, the film “Notting Hill” surely left an everlasting impression since the first time you watched it. The iconic romantic comedy that came out in 1999, starring Julia Roberts and Hugh Grant, quickly became a sensation to all those who saw it. Taking place in Notting Hill, a vibrant neighborhood in West London, the film has left an indelible mark on the area, turning many of its picturesque streets and quaint shops into must-visit destinations for movie lovers like us. This walking tour will begin at The Ritz, the exact hotel where Julia Roberts’ character was staying in the film. We will then take a lovely stroll through the amazing Hyde Park to learn a bit about London’s history and the important landmarks within the grass, until we pop out the other side in Notting Hill! We will get to see all of the influential sites from the film, along with stories, and new interesting facts. It is so much fun to immerse yourself in your favorite movie, but Notting Hill is a special one indeed. From the iconic blue door to the eclectic markets that show in the opening scene, this tour will take you through the film step by step. I can’t wait to get going, I promise it will be “surreal but nice!”

Hello and welcome to this UCPlaces walking tour of London, where we step back in time to the bustling streets of the 19th century, vividly brought to life in Charles Dickens' timeless tale, "A Christmas Carol." As we traverse the cobblestone alleys and historic landmarks that inspired Dickens' classic, you'll find yourself immersed in the sights and sounds that shaped the world of Ebenezer Scrooge, Bob Cratchit, and Tiny Tim. From the foggy banks of the Thames to the lively markets of Camden Town, this journey will reveal the rich tapestry of Victorian London, shedding light on the social contrasts and festive spirit that underpin this beloved Christmas story. Join us as we uncover the magic and mystery of Dickensian London, a city where the past and present collide in a narrative of redemption, generosity, and holiday cheer. While our tour today will focus more on A Christmas Carol, we'll also be exploring and sprinkling in other places that have earmarks or Dicken's work and experience. My name is Dave, and I’m excited to be your co-pilot today as we immerse ourselves in the world of Charles Dickens' immortal classic. We will begin today in a very familiar place, Leadenhall Market, that has been seen in several films and novellas, including the Harry Potter series. Aside from using an Uber or Lyft to get here, the closest Tube station to Leadenhall Market is Bank Station. Bank Station is served by the Central, Northern, Waterloo & City lines, and the Docklands Light Railway (DLR). Another nearby option is Monument Station, which is served by the Circle and District lines. Both stations provide easy access to the historic Leadenhall Market, making it convenient for visitors exploring this iconic London landmark. Follow your GPS, and we will begin shortly.
