On this tour, you'll head straight for Stonehenge –– the most popular prehistoric monument in the world. Come and marvel at the huge 40-ton Sarsens and the volcanic blue stones brought from the Preseli mountains over 280 miles (ca. 451 km) away. Discover the mysteries that surround the slaughter stone and see the numerous earth barrows where the beaker people lie buried before heading over Salisbury plain towards Bath.
A world heritage site, Bath is a beautiful Georgian city with delightful crescents, terraces, and architecture. There will be plenty of time to shop and explore before you head for a drive through the Cotswolds, taking in breathtaking views of open countryside crisscrossed by dry stone walls and bustling market towns with magnificent perpendicular churches. Stratford-Upon-Avon is the birthplace of William Shakespeare, the greatest writer in the English language, and home to the Royal Shakespeare Company: a charming market town set in the heart of rural England.
A delightful river winds its way through the town, past the beautiful Holy Trinity Church, where the great writer is buried. Shakespeare’s School was built in the 15th century, and young William was taught in this very room in the 1570s. Included as part of the package is a private and exclusive tour and a school lesson just for you!
