Join us on Friday night for a welcome drink, dinner and then a disco to dance the night away.
After breakfast the next morning, our coach takes us the short drive into Stratford where we'll meet our guide for a town walk. This is a lovely way to discover Stratford and its fascinating relationship with William Shakespeare. Hear tales of fire, flood, plague, medieval cures and the odd bit of Shakespeare as well. Lasting about 2 hours, our tour takes us past the Shakespeare Town Houses (Birthplace, New Place, Hall's Croft), Harvard House, the Royal Shakespeare Theatres, River Avon, 15th century timber-framed buildings, Shakespeare's School, Guild Chapel and Holy Trinity Church. There may be a chance to visit Shakespeare’s grave in the Chancel (small charge) if the church is open.
When we return to the hotel we can enjoy the hotel’s leisure facilities before we meet up for an evening dinner and dancing once more.

GratuitiesThere is often confusion on the question of gratuities, since it frequently depends on the type of holiday, location and, of course, your attitude towards tipping, as to what is normally expected. In order to give you a rough idea, we have given appropriate guidance below.
The Tour Leader will be on hand to offer advice or suggestions if required but gratuities are offered entirely at the sole discretion of the individual. We suggest a group collection at the beginning of your holiday to cover drivers, guides and hotel staff (including restaurant, kitchen and reception staff) of approximately £5. Your Tour Leader will collect this on your behalf and distribute it accordingly, thus relieving you of the burden of who, when and how much to tip. The tipping of bar staff and housekeeping will be left to your individual discretion (the rounding up of the drinks bill and a small amount left in your room on departure should cover this and would be much appreciated). As is customary, ‘the hat’ will be passed around for the driver and guide on all optional excursions. For any meals that are not included in your itinerary, restaurants expect a 10% gratuity (do check that service has not already been added to your bill). For taxis 10% of the metered fare.
Dress codeThe dress code for during the day is casual. In the evenings the dress code is smart with gentlemen requested to wear a shirt and tie. Comfortable shoes for walking and sightseeing are recommended.
