Stratford Upon Avon Hour Hop on/Hop off Bus Tour
A vibrant, compact town, boasting a rich architectural heritage; the list of things to do in Stratford-upon-Avon is endless! Explore the medieval streets on the way to 11 of the most remarkable historic landmarks the city has to offer. Along the way you can relax on the top of a double-decker, taking in the scenic view of the River Avon.
There is a little something for everyone in Shakespeare’s hometown. This city is filled with delightful shops and top-quality restaurants and pubs line the medieval streets, all within walking distance of the scenic River Avon, and surrounded by wonderful Warwickshire countryside.
Start the adventure at the Avon Boating as we whisk you away to Shakespeare's Birthplace at bus stop 2, where the creative genius was brought to life. Hop off at bus stop 3 to visit the Market Street. Here you'll see the American Fountain, which contains a quote from the play Henry VIII.

Further along the bus tour, at bus stop 6, we'll visit Shakespeare's Grave at the Holy Trinity Church. Shakespeare sadly died on the day that he was born, at the age of 52, but his legacy still remains very much alive.
