1. Stonehenge and Windsor Castle Tours from London

This is a wonderful day trip that exposes you to some of the best of England’s countryside. You’ll ride in style risk free; no train connections or rental cars to fret about. Our private driver will pick you directly from your London hotel and whisk you away along idyllic country lanes. First we pass the world famous Stonehenge, then onto the royal town of Windsor. And in a day, you’ll experience thousands of years of history and two of England’s most iconic sights.

1.1. The Tour Begins at Stonehenge

We’ll start our journey with Stonehenge. This is among the world’s greatest mysteries. Located in the peaceful Wiltshire countryside, this Neolithic giant has survived the test of time for more than five centuries.It’s predates the Egyptian pyramids and it’s spawned a ton of legend. Historians guess it played multiple roles, from a place of medicine to one of the ancient world’s first observatories. To walk around the great stones is a mighty moment, to be connected in some way to humanity’s ancient creativity and spirit.
Visitors can get the full experience here. Stroll through the recreated Neolithic houses, view primitive tools of life and conjure up visions on how those master builders moved the giant stones with little more than will and cooperation.

Don’t miss these highlights:

• View the face of a man who lived thousands of years ago at the exhibition centre..
• Try moving a replica Sarsen stone in the outdoor exhibit.
• Capture a photo of the iconic stone circle from the best angle.
• Visit the award-winning visitor centre for interactive displays and stories.

Stonehenge London tours let you step in the footsteps of history with your own personal guide’s expert illuminating commentary.

1.2. Windsor and the Castle

Having sociated the mysticism of Stonehenge, we jet to Windsor, a delightful little town oozing with royal history. There’s Windsor Castle, the world’s oldest and largest inhabited castle. Constructed by William the Conqueror and farmed by kings for 900 years, it’s still a beloved home of the British Royal Family.
You’ll discover the Grand State Apartments adorned with art and furnishings of bygone eras inside the castle. The beautiful St. George’s Chapel houses the tombs of multiple monarchs. Queen Mary’s Dolls’ House is yet another marvel, a functioning mini palace in which we can all bask for a while, with lights and running water, and made for royal eyes only.

Our guides are certified to show you around the grounds and local area. Audio guides accompany the State Apartments to enrich your visit.

Top sights at Windsor Castle include:

• The elegant State Apartments and their royal art collection
• The castle grounds with panoramic views of the countryside
• The charming old streets and shops around Windsor

Your Stonehenge London tours experience continues with the comfort of an air-conditioned private vehicle and a friendly driver-guide. We’d also suggest snuggly cafes for afternoon tea or the top spot for souvenirs before returning to London.

1.3. City of Bath

You can carry on through the day with a pit-stop in the wonderful Bath. Famous for its Georgian architecture and Roman history, the bath’s claim to fame are the stunningly well-preserved Roman Baths, which were built atop of natural hot springs more than 2,000 years ago. It is one of England’s most beautiful cities with its honey-coloured stone buildings and graceful crescents.

1.4. Alternative Tour Options

You can personalize your day with other stops too. Some choose Avebury, location of massive neolithic stone circles. Others enjoy Hampton Court Palace or the quaint Lacock Abbey and Village, known for film locations such as Pride & Prejudice and Harry Potter.
