Excellent tour....such sights to see!
Patti_L, Aug 2023
Declan was a wonderful guide who was able to bring Shakespeare's story to life. The walk took us to places that I never would have thought to access on my own. I highly recommend this tour, whether you are a fan of the Bard or just want to learn more about London's great history.
