London to Stonehenge in a Nutshell

What to Expect on Your Tour with London Country Tours

Stonehenge is at Salisbury and about a two-hour trip from London. If you’re in London for just a few days then a day trip to Stonehenge is a must. Our travel presents beyond a gas station break, it transforms into a narrative-decorated afternoon where heritage meets rustic allure.

At the hotel we will meet you and the driver and guide will take you through the routes of the English countryside. As part of our Stonehenge to London tours, you will have the time to appreciate and admire the ancient standing stones and then go to Windsor. You will then have the opportunity to either wander the beautiful town or visit Windsor Castle. You will have traversed two distinctive sites where you have walked through history in varying centuries. This completes a historical day out.

On your journey you’ll enjoy the little towns and green fields of Andover, Basingstoke, and Farnborough. This will be in opposition to the crowded areas of London. You will be taken to ‘stone henge’ the moment you arrive will be mesmerized by the gigantic stones surrounding you. Immediately you will be struck with the size of the stones. You will be astounded at how large the stones are. This will specifically make you wonder how they were stacked thousands of years ago.

Stonehenge

This ancient monument rests in the Wiltshire countryside. It is a World Heritage Site of global renown. Built nearly five thousand years ago, Stonehenge predates the pyramids. Some say it was a healing place, others an astronomical clock and many a sacred temple.

The Stonehenge engineering continues to impress visitors to this day. The mystery of how prehistoric man moved and erected the stones continues to intrigue experts. The accuracy with which its layout was aligned to the movements of the sun reveals an engineering know-how that continues to generate debate among historians. Our tour leads you through these stories and allows you to absorb the feel at your pace.

Windsor and Windsor Castle

Windsor and Maidenhead’s Royal Borough is calling you once you’re done gazing at Stonehenge. And the gorgeous old streets with their quaint cafes. The centerpiece of this town is Windsor Castle with its breathtaking apartments, chapel and royal gallery. There’s also Windsor Great Park which is a pleasant walk and a wonderful way to close the day, but only if you’ve got the time!

Our driver-guides provide you with the flexibility that you need to make the most of your day. So, you can have a nice afternoon English tea, or you can leisurely stroll the town and shop for souvenirs. You will enjoy the comfort of our private vehicle which will be accessible throughout the day. Depending on your plan, we can set your pick up point from your hotel, the airport, or even your cruise ship.

Extend Your Tour to Bath

For visitors with extra time, the City of Bath makes a wonderful addition. Known for its Georgian architecture and Roman heritage, Bath holds more listed buildings than London. The Roman Baths are among Britain’s most spectacular historic sites. Hot springs supply the ancient pools and steam rooms, giving you a peek of Roman engineering at its best.

Our guide knows some local restaurants to stop for lunch to taste the traditional food while experiencing the city’s atmosphere. Add to that Stonehenge, Windsor and Bath and it’s a perfect day of history and culture.
