What To Expect
Warwick Castle
Over a thousand years of history are waiting to be discovered at this fantastic medieval castle. Set against the River Avon within 64 acres of landscaped parkland, this beautiful castle once belonged to the most powerful man in England, The Earl of Warwick. Learn how the 'Kingmaker' was the only man who dared defy the King, and how he defeated the armies of King Edward IV in battle before taking the King himself as a prisoner. Explore the lavishly decorated State Rooms and 17th-century Great Hall; a room boasting an impressive collection of artefacts including suits of armour and medieval weapons. In the castle's 14th-century gaol, the original dungeon, see graffiti left behind by prisoners hundreds of years ago. How many names can you spot?
Stratford-upon-Avon
This picturesque market town is most famous for being the birthplace of William Shakespeare, widely regarded to be the greatest writer in English literature and the world's preeminent dramatist.

5.00It was lovely to escape London city for a day and get to see the English countryside which made seeing the 3 historical sites all the more amazing! Warwick Castle, Stratford and Oxford made this trip to London special.

4.00Frank was an informative guide, but did not take in consideration for slower, older walkers. He walked too fast, even after I asked him to slow down a bit. Also, needed at least an extra 15 minutes in Oxford and Stratford on Avon. We had the extra time, since trip returned earlier to London, than told it would.
Godfrey was excellent. ...
