We had a very good driver Mario and a professional guide Chris. Chris had excellent knowledge of history. He also recommended other interesting places to see in London while we were passing through London .

Kelvin lights up the tour with his energy, enthusiasm and humour. He keeps us entertained and Antonio keeps to the schedule promptly. Never late. Great tour, great guide and great driver.

I really enjoyed this tour and it was really enough time to go through the Birthplace, Schoolroom and Hathaway's cottage with informative dialogue. We made a stop for bathroom and snack if needed. And in the afternoon a drive through the Cotswolds and a stop at Bourton-on-the-Water for Tea, Scones and some shopping. Maj and James did a great job.

James and Maj were excellent guides with a lovely sense of humor that made the trip enjoyable and insightful. You also get plenty of time to walk around and enjoy your time. Highly recommended!

The whole experience was great, and I was not really a shakespeare fan.But my friend is. The coach and staff were great. They went out of their way to be helpful.Especially at the end of the day. Enough time at each location with lots of information.

The tour was well conducted by Mr. Oliver along with the driver. The timings were perfect. The guided tours with his clear and focused explanation of the sites were of high quality.

Great tour, with strategic stops and with enough time to explore each place. Our guide, Dan, was amazing and told us several important historical facts during the tour, and it was noticed that she clearly knew about each topic. Our driver, Rex, was super friendly, and he drove very carefully the entire time. Also, I found very useful that we received identification bracelets with an "urgency phone number", so we can contact our guide if needed during our stops. Truly recommend this tour!

A journey from birmingham to stratford upon avon on the train, arriving an hour later, a lovely clean place, followed a treasure trail, then a walk around the shops, saw shakespears house. The all year round christmas shop ( strange in august). To the church were shakespear is burried but a donation is asked for then £5 to see his grave. A lovely walk along the river, lots of different boat trips were available. A good day out
