Measured pauses are made during your tour, including at each of the five Shakespeare properties, for informative and lively commentary from your guide. Your guide has a lifetime local knowledge of the Stratford area.
Spacious, modern, air-conditioned minibuses are used for your tour, seating up to seven passengers. Vehicles are side-loading for safety and there is wheelchair access for one at the rear.
Our Stratford tours are operated all year round including weekends. During the lighter summer evenings a short sightseeing tour may also be accommodated. We can pick you up and drop you off at your accommodation.
Our Minibuses, unlike larger coaches, can access delightful villages served only by narrow country lanes. Bardtours is therefore a more environmentally friendly way to tour Stratford and surrounding villages by being less disruptive to local communities. And you get to see much more!
