Shakespeare's Globe Theatre Tour

Shakespeare's Globe Theatre is a perfect replica of the original playhouse constructed in 1599. The theatre is one of the most famous in the world because it was where the renowned Elizabethan playwright, William Shakespeare premiered his masterworks.

You'll be accompanied by a guide with expert knowledge about the British poet and playwright, as you're led through a 45-minute guided tour around all of the Globe's facilities.
