Review & FAQ:

Although Stratford-upon-Avon will always be synonymous with William Shakespeare, you do not have to be a fan of the Bard to enjoy the sights and sounds of this historic city. You can take a self-guided walking tour of the city (a selection of guides can be downloaded) or take advantage of a narrated open-top bus tour, which will call on all the major attractions including Shakespeare's Birthplace, Ann Hathaway's Cottage, Mary Arden's House, and the Royal Shakespeare Theatre.

When you need a break from all things Shakespeare, you can go on a 45-minute canal boat tour, visit the lovely wood-framed Harvard House (1796), or watch wheelwrights and blacksmiths ply their trade in Chedham's Yard.
