    Full description

    Explore the region beyond London with a full-day excursion to some of England's most fascinating and essential sights. Head straight to Stonehenge, the most popular prehistoric monument in the world. Marvel at the huge 40-ton Sarsens and the volcanic blue stones that were brought from the Preseli Mountains, located more than 280 miles away.

    Move on next to the beautiful Georgian city of Bath. You'll have plenty of time to shop and explore the charming streets.

    Drive through the picturesque Cotswold region. Take in scenic views of open countryside, crisscrossed by dry stone walls and bustling market towns. Visit the birthplace of William Shakespeare at Stratford-upon-Avon. See the home of the greatest writer in the English language and the world-renowned Royal Shakespeare Company.

    Admire Stratford with its delightful river that winds its way past the Holy Trinity church, where Shakespeare was laid to rest. Receive a private tour of Shakespeare’s Schoolroom and Guildhall, take part in a Tudor lesson, and write with a quill and ink.

    Our guide and bus driver were fantastic. Enjoyed the day trip. Recommend you pack a lunch and take water as there is a lot of sitting down whilst enjoying the view . It was a little overwhelming at the bus pick up and very busy . Allow extra 15mims to find your allocated bus number.

    This is a excellent option for ones looking for quick trying out on different cities. - Stonehenge : 1 hr for visiting (enough time) - Stratford-Upon-Avon : 1:30 hr for visiting (not enough time) - Bath : 1:30 hr for visiting (impossible for visit not even 20% of the center of the city) - Cotswolds : this should be removed for the title (we just drive through the side of the city). Along the trip, you get a lot of information from your guide which makes the experience much more attractive. In my case, she was very knowledgeable, friendly and helpful.

    The whole tour was well organized, comfortable seats on the bus. Sufficient time at each stop. Great guide. Unfortunately, you really only drive past the Cotswolds, would have liked to have seen more. The towns are just on the way to the next stop and you drive through them "accidentally". Therefore 1 star deduction. Otherwise really nice day trip.
