What You Can Expect
Day Trip to Stonehenge, Bath and Windsor
Arrive in the elegant city of Bath, where both Romans and Georgians have left their mark. Formerly known as Aquae Sulis, Bath is home to the only hot thermal springs in Britain, which were a draw for early Roman invaders. At the Roman Baths, discover how centuries later, the baths were still a destination for those who wanted to ‘take to the waters.’ The Georgian elite of London arrived here in the 18th century to cure themselves of rheumatic disease and gout. The city’s elegant squares, circuses and crescents also date from this time. Enjoy a guided tour of the city, and then enjoy lunch (own expense) at a local eatery.
After lunch, continue your day trip to Windsor, home to the oldest and largest occupied castle in the world and the favorite home of Queen Elizabeth II. Your guide will give you a full account of the history of this royal residence and take you on a walk through the town where royalty and statesmen have walked.
Inside the castle (entrance at your own expense), see the fine furniture and paintings owned by the queen. Take a look at Queen Mary's Dolls’ House and visit St George's chapel to see the resting place of English kings and queens, including Henry VIII and Charles I.
At the end of the day, meet the rest of your group to head back to London through historic Runnymede, where the Magna Carta was sealed by King John in 1215.

Tony was an excellent tour guide! He was entertaining and informative. The day was scheduled well, and there was enough time to enjoy each of the attractions.

Our tour was outstanding. It ran on schedule and the bus was very comfortable. The tour guide, Andrew, was great. He was extremely knowledgable and provided wonderful commentary on each site we visited as well as on the history, architecture, culture and even the geology of each area through which we traveled. I would not hesitate to recommend strongly the tour to others.
