Itinerary

Day 1 This morning we make our way to Marlborough with time to explore and get lunch, before continuing our journey and arriving at our hotel late afternoon.

Day 2 Today, we explore Stratford-upon-Avon and Shakespeare’s world. We visit Shakespeare’s Birthplace and childhood home to hear tales of Shakespeare’s family life and get up close to objects from the Trust’s unique collections. The afternoon is free in town, or you could relax at your hotel, or join your driver on a drive through some pretty Cotswold villages.

At 2pm we take our seats for the International Tattoo, which will bring together massed marching bands, pipes and drums, Field Gun displays and Fly Ball exhibitions. The spectacular Grand Finale features over 1000 performers, including the Parade of Massed Standards, as well as the Royal Air Force Cosford Queen’s Colour and Escort, for a fantastic celebration of pomp and pageantry. DAY 4: Leaving our hotel after breakfast, we make our way down to Painswick Rococo Gardens, which will be resplendent with carpets of beautiful snowdrops.
