Stonehenge Admission Ticket

1. Stonehenge Admission Ticket

Stonehenge is perhaps the most famous prehistoric monument in the world. It was built in several stages, beginning as a simple earthwork enclosure. The unique linteled stone circle was erected in the late Neolithic period, around 2500 B.C. Your timed admission ticket gives you access to a site that has continued to attract interest for centuries. Today Stonehenge, Avebury, and other associated locations comprise a UNESCO World Heritage Site featuring a unique and dense concentration of prehistoric monuments. Stonehenge has been the subject of speculation and fascination since at least the early medieval period. How did Neolithic people construct this masterpiece of engineering using only the simple tools and technologies available to them? Hundreds of prehistoric objects from the Stonehenge World Heritage Site are on display in the visitor center. One of the new features at Stonehenge is an outdoor gallery that includes several reconstructed Neolithic houses. Using archaeological evidence and authentic materials, these buildings provide a glimpse into the lifestyle of the Neolithic people who built Stonehenge. Stonehenge has many different meanings to people today. It is an icon of Britain, a wonder of the world, a spiritual place, and a source of inspiration.

We loved our trip to Stonehenge with Darren as our tour guide! The half day allowed us to still do more things in the afternoon when we got back. We liked how small our tour group was too, only about a dozen of us. Darren handled getting our wrist bands so we could walk right in. We got to Stonehenge right as it opened and had plenty of time to see everything we wanted to see and grab a bite to eat at the visitor center before heading back to London.

Chrissy and her trusted polish driver were great all the way. Found the Vox headset not very useful when I used it at the back of the group, static noises and interruptions mostly. Apart from that no issues.

This was a superb trip. We were lucky to have the most charming guide (Rowan), a chilled bus driver and an expert guide at Stonehenge. Tours don't get better than this!

Robert does an amazing job with this tour! He definitely made the entire day so much more interesting. Thank you Robert!

Excellent tour. With time to enjoy either the visit to Stonehenge or Bath. Great guide.
