5.00Really engaging performance from the guide, full of legends and truths about Stratford. There was only a small group of us (5 - 3 adults and 2 children) undertaking the tour, but our host really kept the energy up, kept us all fully engaged and span loads of interesting tales and legends about Stratford and the people who lived here. Great entertainment and a great way to see the town.
