WalkTalkShow.co.uk is a fascinating guided tour of the town; outlining its 14 centuries of history as well as much ado about the life and times of William Shakespeare; from birth to grave. Meeting at the world famous Royal Shakespeare Theatre and taking in 17 stops that include Shakespeare's birthplace, his famous 'New Place' home and the Church [built in 1210] in which he was both christened and buried. See historic buildings including the surviving five taverns that served Shakespeare beer - and can still do the same for you 450 years later!

What about The Guild of The Holy Cross? This superb Chapel that dates from 1269 was the real seat of power in the town for centuries; despite falling foul of King Henry the 8th and his successors. Next door is Shakespeare's schoolroom, restored to its period splendor - and the 15th Century Almshouses also built by The Guild. Talking of history, have you ever stood on one corner and had a clear sight of buildings that span five centuries? In fact you could throw a ball and hit any one of them; including the house where Harvard University's founding father, John Harvard, was born - in 1607. Explore to your heart's content as you experience life as it was in Tudor England - a period during which powerful forces changed England, and the wider world, forever.

WalkTalkShow.co.uk charts the complete history of Stratford, from its 7th Century settlers to its 21st Century arcade whilst also piggybacking the life and times of the world's most famous writer - unquestionably the most famous person of all times. You will see amazing buildings, beautiful views and learn some fascinating history. Shakespeare's writing changed the world. Henry the 8th Reformation did the same; its consequences almost certainly gave rise to modern democratic systems around the world. On this tour it's all included - it's far more than any town walk you've been on before!
