You will get to the first stop of the day, Windsor Castle, for about 9:30am. This 900 year-old castle perches proudly on a lush wooded hill overlooking the Thames. With its sweeping landscaped gardens and imposing turret, It’s easy to see why Windsor Castle is loved by King Charles II.
Duration: 1h 50mAdmission: YES

At Windsor Castle, enjoy a fascinating through–the–keyhole peek at the lavish State Apartments, home to priceless artworks by Rembrandt and Leonardo da Vinci, and visit the beautifully gothic St. George’s Chapel, the atmospheric final resting place of former monarchs including Henry VIII and Elizabeth II. The coach will leave Windsor Castle at about 11:30am to move onto the next part of your adventure.

From a 900 year-old castle to a 5,000 year-old monument – you’ll be taking a step even further back in time when visiting Stonehenge, to which you will get to for about 1:15pm. The true meaning of this ancient, awe-inspiring creation has been lost in the mists of time. Was Stonehenge a temple for sun worship, a healing centre, a burial site or perhaps a huge calendar? How did our ancestors manage to carry the mighty stones from so far away and then, using only the most primitive of tools, build this amazing structure? Surrounded by mystery, Stonehenge never fails to impress.
Duration: 1h 30mAdmission: YES

For your last stop of the day – see the beautiful town of Oxford, known for being home to the English-speaking world’s oldest university. On this walking tour of Oxford, follow in the footsteps of Oxford’s famous students (such as C.S.Lewis and Bill Clinton) as you stroll through the captivating college courtyards and cobbled lanes of this historic university town.

Good trip, but be prepared for very tight schedule
Den is an excellent guide, introducing thoroughly and appropriately. Not only trip related things, but also solve everyone’s traffic problem in the following trip, very warm and kind. Alex is a good driver and cooperate with Den well.

Golden tours A+ and Costco travel A+
Our guide Den and driver Alex were fantastic. Den was so sweet and kind. She personally guided us on a fantastic tour and was helpful in getting us back to our hotel using the tube. We were apprehensive about using it and she personally helped us plan our route home. Above and beyond . So kind and sweet

3 Famous Spots in One Day - Fantastic!
Great tour if you want highlights rather than depth, so that you can see more spots in whatever time you have. Viator / Golden Tours / Gray Line has put together a good trip. Our tour guide Amanda was so upbeat and friendly all day and provided great information throughout. Bus driver Hassan was quite professional at getting through London traffic out and back. Recommend this tour if you want a good highlights of these attractions.
