Itinerary
Planning to tick Stonehenge off your bucket list? This stress-free return trip to Stonehenge from London will allow you to explore the world-famous site at a relaxed pace. The coach for this self-guided tour will be departing from Victoria, central London – make sure you are at the pickup spot at least 15 minutes beforehand to check in! As you’re walking around Stonehenge, you’ll get to learn about the many theories (some still standing, some proven wrong) surrounding this remarkable UNESCO World Heritage Site. Was it a burial ground? A sacred temple? A way to tell the time? Despite having been sitting proudly on Salisbury Plain for 5,000 years, Stonehenge is still very much an enigma. Hear about its long history and enjoy this fascinating place! You’ll also have time to explore the site’s exhibition and visitor centre – containing 250 ancient objects discovered around Stonehenge – and walk around the incredible models of Neolithic houses.

Traveler reviews
A great day overall
Finding the exact pickup location, especially after using the cursory information provided by the tour operator's telephone agent, made for a bumpy start. YET, the bus did depart close to the scheduled time and Armando did yeoman's work, both as driver and tour guide on what was a delightful, informative and comfortably air-conditioned ride to-and-from Stonehenge. Highly recommend.
Quick Stonehenge Trip
Armando was a great driver and tour guide! Loved his jokes and historical facts!
Very long day. Only cold...
Very long day. Only cold liquids and no food allowed on the bus. We were on the tour for 7 or so hours. Luckily there was a cafe at Stonehenge. There is no shade at the venue and there is a wait/line to get on the shuttle to and from Stonehenge. The bus is air conditioned.
Stonehenge only tour
Good tour if you want to go out to Stonehenge only which is what we did. Recommend bring a snack with you on the way out as it’s a couple of hours drive there and back.
Great
Great time with Armando the tour guide
