Full description

Explore one of the most famous prehistoric monuments in the world on a half-day tour to Stonehenge. Travel to the site from London by air-conditioned vehicle and enjoy views of the English landscape en route. The tour is unescorted, but visitors can download an audio guide on their smartphones. Situated on Salisbury Plain in the Wiltshire countryside, the cluster of 40-ton rocks was constructed more than 5,000 years ago.

Although the function of Stonehenge is still a matter of fierce debate, what is known about the UNESCO World Heritage Site is that it has been a site of pagan worship for centuries. Make up your own mind as you uncover the history behind the extraordinary monument. A new world-class visitor center is now a short shuttle bus ride away from the stone circle site and combines cutting-edge audiovisuals with exhibitions of ancient objects.

It's a long drive, 2.5 hours, in a completely full traveling bus. I was struggling with the narrow space and the person infront of me putting his seat back, for 2.5 hours. :( The site itself is amazing and I enjoyed walking around looking at the stones, wondering who built it, how, and what for. Unfortunately I didn't feel 2 hours at the site was enough, I'd give 3 hours. I didn't have time to go into the exhibition.

Unfortunately, the meeting point for the bus was not easy to find, luckily we had planned enough time to search. Once we found him everything went like clockwork, very good organization. The driver (Elvis) was funny and told a lot while driving. Since we were there early, there were no queues anywhere, which looked different on our way back at noon. We were also able to shop in peace and have something to eat in the cafe.

Beautiful excursion. Everything went great with the transport. During the trip, various information (historical or also about buildings in London) was told via headphones. Stonehenge is just impressive. The way from the information office to the stone circle can be made by shuttle bus or on foot. Definitely recommend the excursion.
