Bath, Lacock and Stonehenge inner circle access tour

Premium Tours offer you the chance to experience exclusive access to the inner circle of Stonehenge during the magical moments of dawn or dusk, creating an unforgettable experience. Additionally, you’ll visit the charming medieval village of Lacock, featured in numerous films like Harry Potter, along with the stunning Georgian/Roman Baths, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Lacock

Take a delightful stroll around Lacock a picturesque village dating back to the Saxon era.  Many of the beautiful buildings originally formed part of an extensive monastic complex and are now owned by The National Trust.

The village is so charming that it has served as the backdrop for numerous films and TV dramas, such as Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice and the Harry Potter movies.

While exploring the village, be sure to treat yourself to a delightful breakfast or lunch at The George Inn a charming, historic country pub and one of the oldest licensed pubs in England.

Experience the stones up close, just like a select few visitors do.

Stonehenge is a “must see” for any visitor. This Stonehenge Special Access tour offers something different, giving you privileged access, behind the ropes within the Stone Circle itself, walking among the stones.

Special access

These special access sessions at Stonehenge only happen outside Stonehenge normal public opening hours, at dawn (and in the evening too between March and September).

Only 30 individuals can participate in each special access session at Stonehenge. Be aware tickets often sell out weeks or even months in advance. As a result, it’s essential to plan ahead to ensure you don’t miss out.

Additionally, during the last two weeks of June the only way to gain special access to Stonehenge is during the Stonehenge Summer Solstice.

Premium Tours Stonehenge Special Access dates

Individual dates on which tours operate do not always follow a regular pattern.

Tickets are allocated by Stonehenge and are released usually every November for the following year. We aim to display the following year’s ticket dates for Stonehenge Special Access as soon as possible after they are made live. If you are planning ahead for later than these dates it is necessary to keep checking back until they become live in the autumn before you visit.

Demand far outstrips supply of tickets – Stonehenge Special Access tours are routinely sold out far in advance, so it is a matter of taking a tour whenever tickets can be obtained.

Please note – Special Access visits are available most but not all months of the year. No tours run during October and November and last two weeks of June.
