Overview

Stratford-upon-Avon is famous for one thing… but there’s an entire town of stories waiting to enthral you — long before we even mention Stratford's most famous son!

Join our expert guides, for a small-group journey through scandal, crime, and curious characters — all meticulously researched and told exactly where the history happened.

By the time Shakespeare finally takes the stage, you’ll see him in a whole new light: not just a legend, but the man, the town, and the tales that shaped them both.

This isn’t a walking tour. It’s a curated, dynamic immersive adventure through Stratford’s hidden stories — twisted, true, and unforgettable.

Activity itinerary

Holy Trinity Church
  • 10m
Discover the quiet grandeur of Holy Trinity Church, one of England’s most beautiful and historically significant parish churches, set on the peaceful banks of the River Avon. This stunning medieval church has stood at the heart of Stratford-upon-Avon for over 1,000 years and remains a place of worship, reflection, and deep cultural importance.
Hall's Croft
  • 10m
  • Admission ticket not included
Arrive first at Hall’s Croft, a beautifully preserved Jacobean home and one of Stratford-upon-Avon’s most atmospheric historic houses. Once the residence of Dr John Hall, a renowned physician, this elegant property offers a fascinating glimpse into life in the early 17th century, and holds close ties to the town’s most famous son.
Avon Bank Gardens
  • 10m
Discover the atmospheric Avon Bank Gardens, a secluded riverside space where Stratford-upon-Avon’s beauty meets its darker past. By day, the gardens offer peaceful views over the River Avon, but beneath the calm surface lies a history shaped by shadows, secrecy, and survival.
Clopton Bridge
  • 10m
Follow the story of Stratford-upon-Avon back to its origins along the River Avon and the enduring stone arches of Clopton Bridge, where trade, travel, and danger once flowed side by side. For centuries, the river was the town’s lifeline—providing food, transport, and prosperity—while also posing constant risks through flooding, accidents, and unseen threats.
Royal Shakespeare Theatre
  • 10m
  • Admission ticket not included
Stand before the iconic Royal Shakespeare Theatre, where Stratford-upon-Avon’s creative spirit meets centuries of drama, ambition, and transformation. Rising proudly beside the River Avon, this landmark building is the beating heart of the town’s theatrical legacy and home to the world-famous Royal Shakespeare Company.
Bancroft Gardens
  • 10m
Your journey continues to the green space of Bancroft Gardens, where Stratford-upon-Avon’s lively present masks a previous gateway to the town, alive with traders, travellers and performers. From Bancroft Gardens, we will walk up the historic Sheep Street, leading us to the Garrick Inn - an historic magnet for locals and travellers alike—especially when darkness gave cover to mischief and crime.
Shakespeare's New Place
  • 10m
  • Admission ticket not included
Step outside of New Place, once the grandest house in Stratford-upon-Avon and the final home of the Bard. Though the house no longer stands, the ground beneath your feet is rich with stories of success, status, and controversy, offering a powerful connection to the man behind the plays.
Shakespeare's Schoolroom & Guildhall
  • 10m
  • Admission ticket not included
Stand outside Shakespeare’s Schoolroom, the place where the Bard’s story truly began. Housed within the historic King Edward VI School, this remarkable room has changed little since the 16th century and offers an intimate glimpse into the formative years of the world’s greatest playwright.
