Shakespeare in the City Walking Tour for Two
About this experience
Take a trip back in time to 16th century London life with this Shakespeare in the City Walking Tour for Two.
Delivered with verve and flair at every turn, your tour will visit the two locations of Shakespeare’s London homes, the site of the Globe’s long forgotten sister, the Blackfriars Theatre and a little-known monument created from one of Shakespeare’s most iconic speeches. You’ll see the spot where it’s believed he penned Othello, King Lear and Macbeth, as well as some of the churches known to him. As you explore, you’ll discover more about his troubled personal life, and hear some of his sublime speeches, delivered with aplomb by your expert guide – once a Shakespearean actor himself.
Combining scholarly expertise with thespian pizzazz, there’s no better way to explore the life of the Bard in the capital.
