Shakespeare'S Birthplace, London, United Kingdom

Golden Tours - Gray Line London

Explore the enchanting landscapes of England through our comprehensive tour of Stratford-upon-Avon, the birthplace of William Shakespeare, and the picturesque Cotswolds, both renowned for their natural beauty and cultural significance.



An expertly crafted guide embarks upon an enlightening journey through historical landmarks, narrating captivating tales and elucidating intriguing details pertaining to the illustrious heritage of these picturesque locales. Upon reaching Stratford-upon-Avon, renowned for being the birthplace of celebrated playwright William Shakespeare, the tour commences.

Visiting the quaint, unassuming half-timbered house where the esteemed bard was born offers visitors an intimate glimpse into Elizabethan era life. Guided tours provide fascinating insights into the daily routines and eccentricities of the period, ensuring an enriching educational experience.

Following this, the group proceeds to explore the modest yet enchanting Anne Hathaway's Cottage and Gardens. This historic structure serves as the former residence of Shakespeare's beloved wife, showcasing her role in his early romantic pursuits.

The tour then continues to the charming Cotswolds region, a breathtaking area widely regarded as among the most visually appealing in Britain. This scenic destination boasts a collection of idyllic villages adorned with rustic charm, offering visitors a serene retreat amidst natural beauty.

As the sun begins to set over the Cotswold landscape, photographers capture the picturesque scenes during two significant Cotswolds villages—Bourton-on-the-Water, affectionately referred to as "Little Venice" owing to its numerous low-lying bridges and ornamental banks, and Burbury, a village long praised for its aesthetic splendor.

Upon concluding their day-long adventure, travelers return to central London around approximately 7:15 pm or 7:30 pm.
