Tour Itinerary:

A full day tour of the West Country visiting Salisbury Cathedral, mysterious Stonehenge and Georgian Bath.


The coaches used are full sized luxury touring coaches. Evan Evans who run the tour has a courtesy pick up service covering over 50 centrally located hotels in London. Pickups operate between 07:45 and 8:30, covering all the main hotel districts in Central London.

The tour is scheduled to Leave London Victoria at 08:45, returning to London around 19:00 in the evening.


All three main destinations are well to the west of London. There is a long first and last return leg. Its is the best part of two hours from London down to Salisbury. After leaving the Thames Valley behind you start to get a flavour of the rolling limestone country you will be spending most of the day in. The scenery becomes steadily more dramatic the closer you get to Bath.

Stonehenge is less than 30 minutes from Salisbury, and Bath only an hour beyond Stonehenge. In the crowded South East of England this area is one of the most unpopulated and rural regions. Its a long 2.5 hour final return from Bath to Central London.

Salisbury Cathedral
Salisbury Cathedral

Salisbury Cathedral

First destination is the beautiful city of Salisbury and its 750 year-old cathedral with a 404 ft spire, the tallest in England.

For US visitors, the Magna Carta on show in the Chapter House is a special attraction.

Salisbury Cathedral What To Expect


The city of Salisbury is comparatively new for England, it grew around the Cathedral in medieval times.

It prospered in this time on the back of the wool industry, the centre still has the medieval streets and alleys and you can still see a lot of wooden beam buildings from this era.

Salisbury What To Expect


On arriving at Salisbury you enter straight in the Close.

Here, the beautiful and historic Salisbury Cathedral is an international symbol of Christianity and a world class heritage attraction. The spire is the tallest in England, 123 meters (404 feet). Once inside you'll be impressed by the Cathedral's graceful, elegant proportions. You visit The Chapter House home to one of only 4 surviving copies of The Magna Carta and see the oldest working clock in Europe, dating back to 1386.

Stonehenge

Stonehenge is less than 30 minutes drive from Salisbury. The great and ancient stone circle of Stonehenge is one of the wonders of the world, cloaked forever in intense debate over its purpose. It is the focal point in a landscape filled with prehistoric ceremonial structures, now a World Heritage Site.

5,000 years ago the huge 40 tonne stones were dragged from over 280 miles away in Wales. Who built it and why remains a mystery today. Some say that it was built as a religious temple, or an astronomical clock. Stonehenge continues to enthrall the imagination and captivate the heart of every visitor.

You will have received a good briefing about Stonehenge before you arrive and will be led straight into the monument skipping any queues. Every visitor receives their own personal audio guide so you pace your visit to your personal preference.

Stonehenge What To Expect


Bath

Its around an hours journey to Bath from Stonehenge. This beautiful Georgian city has some of the richest ancient history in Britain, and much of the most stunning architecture in Europe.

See elegant honey-coloured crescents, beautiful Georgian squares and the delightful scenery along the banks of the River Avon. You'll enjoy views of the famous Pulteney Bridge and Bath Abbey during a tour of the city.

You then visit Bath's most popular attraction, a visit the Roman Baths to see the magnificent temple and bathing complex, still flowing with thermal water from its original source, and walk along ancient Roman pavements.
