Adam

NOTES: Listed here are the London Walks Adam’s scheduled to do in the near future or later this year. When it says Guided by Adam, Adam will definitely be doing it. The others are regular walks (weekly walks, e.g.) he shares with one or more colleagues – he guides some but not all of the shared walks. Finally, this is by no means Adam’s full repertory – there are approximately 40 other walks in his repertory that are currently in the hangar rather than on the runway.
