Morning

Bristol to Stonehenge

Today, we're stepping back in time. We depart from Bristol and head south, towards the Salisbury Plain, an area rich in archaeology and ancient secrets.

Mid Morning

Stonehenge

We arrive at the ancient site of Stonehenge. You'll have the whole morning to enjoy the visitor centre and get up close to the neolithic stones, which have stood for over 5000 years. Will you uncover the mystery behind why this monument was built?

Afternoon

Avebury and Lacock Village

After Stonehenge, we travel north into the rolling hills of the North Wessex Downs. We're off to the village of Avebury, to meander around the largest prehistoric stone circle in the world (and have a spot of lunch surrounded by the mysterious stones). From here, it's a short drive to Lacock, where you'll have time to visit the famous abbey. Fans of Harry Potter, get your cameras ready because you'll recognise the cloisters, used as Hogwarts corridors in the movies. There's plenty to discover in this magical medieval building.

Early Evening

The Cotswolds and return to Bristol

There's still time for one more historic village, as you make your way into the Cotswolds. A region famous for traditional, thatched-roof cottages and serene gardens, your last stop of the day before heading home is the village of Castle Combe, widely recognised as one of the prettiest villages in the region. You'll have time for some last pictures and a short wander, before returning to Bristol.


You return to Bristol at approximately 5.45pm.
