“This visit was especially for my boyfriend’s birthday. He is a very big fan of Shakespeare and has watched many plays in Stratford. We weren’t disappointed the guide was was lovely! With a touch of humour she was very informative! So interesting. In side the globe, was wonderful with its open thatch roof, so authentic in great London metropolis.

Review this 10.5-hour small-group tour from London to Shakespeare’s Stratford and the Cotswolds, with practical tips on timing, value, and stops.
“Paul was great. Very informative and good speaker. He was also very adaptive with some changes and we got to see some pretty routes. We really enjoyed this tour. However, I guess it pays to do your own research because even though Stratford upon Avon was the headliner for this tour, we werent told until right before leaving that we wouldnt be going due to an annual festival. Why this tour is able to be booked during a planned annual festival is the question. Kind of frustrating.”
