Great way to find out all you need to know about Shakespeare in 90 minutes. - A very enjoyable walk around Stratford with our guide Tabitha. The walk was very interesting with little snippets of information which made it entertaining. Tabitha walked at a pace which suited the group and she gave lots of information and facts at each building we stopped at. Despite the rain a good time was had by all.

Friendly well-paced tour - Our guide, Pete, was delightful. The pace of the walk was great and he didn’t mind pauses for photos and questions. He’s a very kind and friendly guy and is very well informed about and proud of his home. Recommend this tour!

Great walk with Peter - Really good tour with Peter. There were only 4 of us which was a real treat and he took us to many places we hadn’t spotted whilst ambling around on our own.

Just brilliant! - We had a fantastic walking tour with Peter, such a lovely and knowledgeable gentleman! It was wonderful to see so many historic spots, and hear humorous stories as we walked about. I wish we had longer. Thank you, Peter. We had a fab evening later on at the recommended Dirty Duck, before the play ♥️
