Wow! We saw everything! - Even though we only had chance to do one round of the trip (due to road closures etc), it was a great way to see the Shakespeare houses and the church where he is entombed. The journey into the countryside was magical!! Well worth the small cost for this.

Bus tour a definite - This is definitely worth doing. It takes you around the sights in Stratford with commentary but takes you out of town to other sights too far to walk for many people. Reasonably priced too.

Dissapointment - The outlet didn't work for the earbuds and the courier wasn't that bothered when I complained, at the half way point she asked if I could here her alright without the earbuds I said no, but she just walked away. It did spoil it as I missed the majority of what she said.

Not worth the money and filthy bus - Very disappointed. Bus was absolutely filthy inside. We were told to collect headphones for the guided tour but most of the headphone connections weren't working

Overall very memorable - On the day of our booking there were a few problems with drivers, resulting in delays and a tour cancellation, but when we eventually borded we enjoyed the experience and would recommend the excursion.

Terrible service with Viator - I bought tickets in advance through Viator. We booked for Sat 2nd Nov. When we turned up there was a sign to say the buses weren't running that day. We went back the next day to find the same sign. We came home that day. I emailed Viatar to get a refund but was told they couldn't offer a refund. I will not be booking any further trips through Viator.

Not running - Waited 40 minutes at stop 5 for a bus. Never turned up! Nothing to say why. They were obviously running though as later saw one coming back into Stratford.
