Windsor Castle, Stonehenge, Lacock and Bath Day Trip from London
London – Windsor Castle – Stonehenge – Lacock – Bath – London
We’ll be the first group to enter Windsor Castle during the morning. More than 900 years of royal history are waiting for you in Windsor Castle, perched high above the River Thames just outside of London. From William the Conqueror all the way through to our current Queen, successive monarchs have lived here and left their mark on what is now the largest continuously occupied castle in the world.
We shall be amongst the first people to enter Windsor Castle, so you can see for yourself the splendor of St. George’s chapel and the sumptuous state apartments. Windsor itself is a pretty town full of traditional shops and historic pubs. Shakespeare is said to have written his play The Merry Wives of Windsor in one of them!
Next, we’ll visit the most famous prehistoric monument in the world: Stonehenge, standing alone in the vast empty tract of Salisbury Plain. Once the site of pagan religion and spiritual worship, its origins date back nearly 5,000 years. What was this vast collection of stones intended for? Was it an observatory of the moon, a temple to the sun, or an elaborate cemetery? Who were the people who carried and carved these 40-ton rocks? Come and unlock the secrets for yourself and marvel at this remarkable and mysterious feat of ancient engineering and design.
Afterward, we’ll have lunch in a 14th-century pub in Lacock. What better way to enjoy lunch than in a classic country pub? Relax and soak up the charming atmosphere while being served delicious home-cooked food. Why not try the fish and chips?
Our final stop will be Bath, another UNESCO World Heritage Site. Bath is a beautiful Georgian city with delightful crescents, terraces, and architecture. Following our panoramic tour of the city, there will be time to visit Bath Abbey and Pulteney Bridge overlooking River Avon. You can shop, explore or take afternoon tea in the Pump Rooms while listening to the string quartet.
