Explore Stratford-upon-Avon, Shakespeare’s hometown and place of birth, with a native British Mandarin-speaking guide.
We will show you the house in which Shakespeare was born and grew up before becoming England’s most famous playwright. You will see the room where he slept with his brothers, the room in which he was born, and learn all about his mysterious personal life. You’ll also see the house that belonged to Shakespeare’s daughter, and the church where Shakespeare himself was baptised and buried.
Finally, you will visit the home of the Royal Shakespeare Company, and finish with a traditional Afternoon Tea experience in a 1940’s British tearoom.
