I would book this tour directly with Shakespeare’s Globe. Do not book it with a third party like Get Your Guide. The globe theatre guided tour happens daily multiple times. We were 15 minutes late to our 10:30 tour and inquired about going on another tour at another time but we were told they could not change our time due to the fact that we booked through Get Your Guide. If we had booked directly through Shakespeare’s Glove, they would have been able to easily change our time. We had three tickets so good-bye $87.

Went on a very busy morning tour and wow did our guide, Michael, deliver. He was informative, humorous and knowledgeable. He invited questions and was able to answer them all ranging from architecture to culture to performance. He was also very sweet with the younger guests on the tour. We didn't get to go down to the yard (I think because they were flipping the sets), but it was still a great experience. Recommend for those who enjoy a bit of history with their art.
