This private walking tour explores two of the most beautiful little market towns in Britain that are only a few miles apart but which are entirely different in how they look and feel. We will spend around 3 hours in lovely Oakham before hopping 10 minutes on the train (or by car if you prefer) to Stamford.
Oakham is the county town of Rutland. Our smallest county with gorgeous countryside all around and with a well-deserved reputation for its quality food and drink and artisan shops.
Oakham also has a unique Great Hall in the castle, old buttercross & market & much more.
Stamford is perhaps the finest Georgian-era town in Britain. You might not have been there before but you’ll likely recognise it from its many appearances onscreen.
Stamford’s narrow alleyways and hidden courtyards are home to all manner of specialty shops, fine jewelers & designer boutiques. It also has a Friday Market and a buzzing High Street. Not forgetting the great history and architecture. It's heaven!

On the strength of a brilliant and informative tour of Lincoln with Ye Olde England tours and our guide Stephen we booked Stamford and Oakham Private Tour. Once again this was a well thought out and delivered tour covering both the highlights and the lesser know little gems of these very different towns. Stephen met us in Oakham where he is now based and straightaway we knew that his vast knowledge of his subject and easy style would prove to be a winner as we explored this beautiful Rutland town before moving on to Stamford where once again we were treated to an informative tour of both the major and not so well known sites. Our day finished with an add on visit to picturesque Rutland Water and the beautiful and iconic Normanton Church. If you are looking for an informative and interesting tour delivered in a friendly and fun style then you can't go wrong with Ye Olde England Tours
