Stonehenge - Private Viewing
Built nearly 5,000 years ago, Stonehenge is the most popular prehistoric monument in the world. Most visitors to the site are not allowed direct access to the stones however on this tour you get that access, with a private viewing of the mysterious monoliths. Enter the stone circle itself and stand beside the mighty rocks towering above. Your guide will explain the history of this ancient site and there will be time to enjoy the peace, away from the crowds, as you experience Stonehenge at its atmospheric best.

As the sun begins to set, you will enter the stone circle (normally closed to the public) for a unique private viewing. On selected days the tour operates in reverse, beginning with a private viewing of Stonehenge before it opens to the public in the morning, so you see the stones in the eerie morning light.

Lacock
Lacock Village is a little known, picturesque village dating back to the Saxon era. Many of the buildings originally formed part of an extensive monastic complex and are now owned by The National Trust. The village has provided the setting for many movies and television dramas including Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice, and more recently Harry Potter and the Philosophers Stone. Take a walk before enjoying an early evening supper* (breakfast for morning tours*) in The George, a vintage English pub built in 1361. *food/drink not included.

Bath
Bath, a world heritage site, is a beautiful Georgian city with delightful crescents, terraces and architecture. There will be time to visit Bath Abbey, or to shop and explore. Your guide will offer an optional walking tour to show you where Charles Dickens lived and worked as a young man, and give you a chance to sample cheeses fresh from the local dairy farms. Enter the magnificent Roman Baths, where over one million litres of boiling water still burst free from the hot springs everyday.
