The sleuth in you is certain to love this one. Full of twists and turns, just like the way it was meant to be by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. I am not referring to the numerous films that the world's most famous detective has appeared in. But true Holmes' fans will not require great powers of deduction to understand that I actually meant the number of ways in which you can create a Sherlock Holmes itinerary on your trip to his home - London.

So if you have been thoroughly mesmerised by the riveting performances of Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law the 2011 film or have waited for the series by the BBC with bated breath, then it is the perfect time to investigate and reveal the different ways in which Holmes comes alive in the city of London.

In Search of Sherlock

Your search must begin with a visit to Baker Street - the address that has been immortalised by Holmes. Located close to the Marylebone station, you are greeted by a glittering bronze statue of the detective and scores of wannabe Holmes. Finding the address may require you to employ some of your investigating skills, though. But once you discover 221b Baker Street, you are introduced to the simply marvellous Sherlock Holmes Museum. The place is reminiscent of the study that Sir Doyle has described with verve and imagination in all his books. From the intricate details of the study to the personal effects of his assistance, Dr Watson, this unique and rare museum promises a fascinating journey into the past. The shop located close by is perfect to pick up interesting memorabilia. And while you are combing the area for anything Sherlock, you might like to pay your respects to the man who created him at 2 Devonshire Place, the location of Sir Doyle's medical practice.

You soon realise that it is time to grab a quick bite. What better place than the Sherlock Holmes pub near the Charing Cross tube station, complete with a replica of his study, Dr Watson's service revolver and a massive assortment of film and TV stills. The ambience leaves nothing to imagination, but the delicious food gives both your mind and taste buds some food for thought.

Your post lunch session must consist of a visit to all the locations featured in the novels. These include the imposing Lyceum Theatre, the striking Royal Opera House and the Freemasons Hall, in addition to the massive British Museum and the iconic St Paul's Cathedral.

Complete your investigative tour to London with a sumptuous meal at Sherlock Holmes's favourite restaurant, Simpsons-in-the-Strand. Now, that's elementary, isn't it?
