The basics

Harvard House is located on Stratford-upon-Avon’s high street, making it easy to combine a visit with other attractions, such as Shakespeare’s childhood home. Some full-day tours depart from as far away as London and follow a comprehensive itinerary ideal for history buffs and literary lovers with limited time for sightseeing. As the interior of the building is closed to the public, guided excursions are useful for learning more about the building and its Harvard connection.
