  • Anywhere

EXPERIENCE

An expert guide leads the way, regaling you with stories and interesting facts about the rich history of these beautiful places. Stratford-upon-Avon, the hometown of legendary playwright William Shakespeare, is the first stop on this day trip. 
Filled with history, pay a visit to the place the famous Bard was born – a quaint, unassuming half-timbered house. Learn amazing stories and quirks of Elizabethan living from your expert guide.
The next stop is a visit to Shakespeare s bride Anne Hathaway s cottage and gardens. This beautiful little thatched farmhouse is the place where the Bard courted his bride.
To this day, the property holds items of original furniture, including the Hathaway bed. It is nestled within stunning grounds and gardens, overflowing with fragrant blooms and traditional shrubs.
Then continue to the Cotswolds. Visit what is often agreed to be one of the most beautiful areas in the whole of the UK. With quaint villages and breathtaking scenery, the Cotswolds looks like it jumped off the pages of a storybook.
This tour makes photo stops at 2 stunning Cotswolds villages: Bourton-on-the-Water, also known as Little Venice due to its low bridges and stone banks, and Burbury, a town once described by William Morris as the most beautiful village in England.
After a wonderful day of sightseeing, arrive back to London at the approximate time of 7:15pm to 7:30pm.
