(Booking is required for school/college groups, and any group of 10 or more. This is to ensure the overall group size is manageable for the guide. In the unlikely event too many people turn up for a walk, the guide will call for a backup, and if a back up is not available, may have to restrict the numbers).

Town Walk highlights
As you walk in William Shakespeare’s footsteps from Birthplace to grave, along the historic spine of ancient Stratford, your guide will unravel the Shakespeare story. It’s like walking through the pages of history. The tour passes the houses connected to William Shakespeare and his family – The Birthplace, New Place and beautiful Hall’s Croft.
