We completed this treasure hunt when staying with family in Stratford. It was a great way to spend a few hours. The clues took you to some great monuments/parks and sites. We were lucky with our family knowing Stratford so well, but we saw things we wouldn't have seen otherwise. We are going to order the one for York when they do a return visit.This was our third Mystery Guide and we enjoyed it just as much as the other two ! Having visited Stratford many times it was lovely to see places that we had never noticed before and learn some history ( before spending the afternoon at Judith’s house making rum! ) would thoroughly recommend!

This was a great way of seeing all the major sights of Stratford. The clues were sometimes tricky, sometimes easy and other times down right contrived, but fun throughout! It took us around two & half hours, but we do know Stratford well, so that helped. Alongside the mystery clues were lots of interesting Shakespearian facts & historical snippets. It is definitely preferable to have a book to follow as a group rather than clues on a phone. The pages are glossy too for when it's raining! I highly recommend this mystery guide and will be seeking out other ones everywhere we go!This was a fun way to explore Stratford Upon Avon and learn lots of history on the way. A couple of the clues had us really baffled but we worked them out in the end by retracing our steps.

This was a fun way to explore Stratford Upon Avon and learn lots of history on the way. A couple of the clues had us really baffled but we worked them out in the end by retracing our steps. Great way to spend the day as we broke it up with lunch and a couple of pub stops….perfect for all ages (we were a family group aged 14/34/62 and there was something for all of us). Highly recommend and we will definitely use again for a different townWhat a good idea. Good fun. Saw bits of Stratford we usually miss. We were amused by the Story of tbe Quill and realised there was a lot we did not know about WS. The clues were fun. Some quite easy and others more difficult.

What a good idea. Good fun. Saw bits of Stratford we usually miss. We were amused by the Story of tbe Quill and realised there was a lot we did not know about WS. The clues were fun. Some quite easy and others more difficult. The final location made for a good stop on a cool day. We are looking forward to doing another of these treasure hunts.
