THE BEST TOURIST THING I’VE EVER DONE was a “Literary Pub Crawl” in Edinburgh, Scotland. Guides led us around town and told us tales of boozing Scottish writers at the pubs they drank at, while we all enjoyed a pint. As it turns out, this type of tour can be done in pretty much any major city: writing is a lonely job, and writers love their booze, so many a great writer ended their day with friends at the pub.

If you want to start up your own literary bar bucket list, the assignment writing service Assignmentmasters has put together this infographic of some of the favorite drinking spots of the world’s great writers.
