REVIEWS
We always make a point when visiting somewhere new, of going on a guided tour. Having been on many I can say this is right up there with the best of them. Meeting at 11am by the swan statue near the RSC, its a great way to see some of the famous landmarks of Stratford upon Avon. Our guide on the day had an encyclopedic knowledge of the town, and appears to have missed her vocation as a Shakespearean actor. A great way to spend 2 hours and well worth it.
Thank you.

I wanted to drop you a quick line to let you know how much my eight Australian visitors and myself enjoyed the guided walk around the beautiful town of Stratford yesterday. The guide was fantastic! A great credit to you; she made the tour so interesting and entertaining. She had a charming way of delivering the history of Shakespeare and of the town and truly captured the full attention of everybody in the group. I would highly recommend this walk to anyone.

Went on a ghost walk around Stratford last night (Saturday 14th March) and it was very entertaining. If you are looking for something different then this walk is a must. He told us all about the histories of the town from the Black Death to spirits visiting the buildings which I must say certainly look very eerie at night. I really enjoyed the experience and so did my family and the guide told it all in a very magical way. The price was good and I recommend you experience it for yourself.

We attended the tour on a cold, windy February day but we barely noticed. The guide was a fantastic, very knowledgeable, providing lots of interesting titbits of information about many of the buildings in Stratford, as well as the Shakespeare family and properties. He was adept at keeping the tour interesting for adults and children alike. For two and a half hours of entertainment you can’t go wrong! Highly recommended a must to-do if you are visiting Stratford.

Having the opportunity to tour Stratford on Christmas morning with our mom was very special, and I would like to express my sincere gratitude to both guides for giving their time on Christmas morning to share their historic and beautiful town with all of us. We are most grateful.
I would highly recommend the Stratford Town Walk to anyone visiting Stratford, and if you plan on visiting this enchanting historic town during Christmas, you certainly should make this a part of your holiday experience. If you have limited mobility, please don’t let your worries keep you from participating.

Fabulous. Trip organised at VERY short notice. Very prompt and clear communications. All COVID restrictions were adhered to but did not spoil our enjoyment. Our tour guide…. Oh my goodness. What a lovely chap! Very funny, well informed and interesting to listen to. All questions answered. Thought we had a good knowledge of William Shakespeare, but learnt so much more including anecdotes not normally found in a textbook. Really brought history to life in a thoroughly educational and interesting way. If only history lessons at school were this enjoyable.
