Excellent tour!

5.00My boyfriend and I did this tour and absolutely loved it! We learned so much about Stratford, Shakespeare, and many other fascinating places along the way. I especially liked being guided by a local and having the flexibility to explore different neighbourhoods at our own pace. Highly recommended!
Great and engaging tour

5.00We explored streets we wouldn’t have discovered on our own. A lot of the route includes places that aren’t typically covered in standard guidebooks
A great way to explore Stratford-upon-Avon as a solo traveller

5.00I visited Stratford-upon-Avon on my own and this was the perfect way to see it for the first time. The tour includes multiple marked stops that take you through many different parts of the town. If you enjoy exploring independently while still having a clear route to follow, this is an excellent option for getting to know Stratford.
