Stonehenge What To Expect

Glastonbury

Onwards to Isle of Avalon, through backroads of villages built of flint and thatch, from chalk downland into rolling limestone hills to Glastonbury Tor where legend tells us Arthur was brought after being mortally wounded in battle.

International Friends Tour Bus

We climb to the top to visit the ruined church of St Michael and admire the view of England's West Country laid out like a carpet below.


In the ruins of the once great Glastonbury Abbey we find the gravesite of Arthur and learn of older legends like that of Joseph of Aramathea, the Holy Grail and the Crown of Thorns.


After exploring the unique shops in the town we head over to the Chalice Well Gardens, drink from the spring and learn of the fate of the holy chalice from the Last Supper.
