Itinerary
We depart Bristol and make our way to Stonehenge. Aliens, Merlin or the Romans? There are many stories connected to this site. Whatever you believe, Stonehenge is worth marvelling at. *Admission to Stonehenge included. The 1 hour and 30 minutes will be the amount of comfort breaks.
Some argue that these stone circles are even better than Stonehenge. Built and altered over many centuries, its one of the largest and most complex of Britain's surviving Neolithic henge monuments. *Passengers will have free time in Avebury for lunch
Harry Potter fans will get a kick out of visiting the Lacock Abbey Cloisters, which were used as Hogwarts' corridors in the movies. *Passengers have free time in Lacock. If you wish, you can purchase Lacock Abbey tickets on the day of arrival.
We leave Lacock and drive over to Castle Combe. Wander through one of the prettiest villages in England and try to spot the places where a number of movies were filmed.

Traveler reviews
Best tour and best tour guide
This was such an amazing trip- our tour guide Alex was knowledgeable and fun! He gave us so many interesting stories and gave us amazing recommendations. If you want yo explore Stonehenge this is the tour to take!
Impressive.
We had Kate as our guide. She was great, told many interesting facts about the places to visit. Overall a great experience and thanks to her we will look forward to tours with rabbis in the future. When we are on holiday
Great day to remember
Alex was a great tour guide! He was chipper and pleasant, telling us stories and tales along the ride to the different attractions. He was very knowledgeable and made the trip worth the experience. We were lucky to have a sunny day, which was definitely a plus for the day trip. We had plenty of time at all the stops to explore on our own, take pictures and walk around. At each stop, we were able to get some refreshments and do a little shopping as well as admire the scenery. It was a day well spent!!
Great informative day
This was a great day tour. Matt, the driver and guide is a true local, so he had lots of interesting tidbits to share as we were travelling through the cities, villages and the countryside. Stonehenge did not disappoint, and the 3 Cotswold villages we visited we charming and each had an interesting backstory, and just enough things to see and do. The time allotted for each stop worked well, and, with some guidance and suggestions, we were free to roam and "do our own thing" in each place. I also appreciated that the travel time on the bus was so well broken up, and that the trip back to Bristol after the last stop was much quicker than the first leg to get out to Stonehenge. Overall I felt this trip was great value and I would recommend this tour.
