Program details
Take in fascinating history and architecture with a tour to the Bronze Age site of Stonehenge, the historic cathedral city of Salisbury, Windsor Castle and the Unesco World Heritage Site of Bath; renowned for its elegant Georgian architecture and ancient Roman baths.
Stonehenge
Marvel at mysterious of Stonehenge, which has withstood the elements and man for 5,000 years. Almost 80 stones, some weighing up to 40 tons, still stand. How did they get there? What was its purpose? Was it a burial site? Was it an astronomical clock? Learn more about this ancient monument that continues to puzzle scholars to this day.
Bath
Enjoy a panoramic tour of Bath, passing the impressive Gothic Abbey which dates back as far as the fifteenth century. Guarantee the best views of the city from the picturesque Pulteney Bridge.
Windsor Castle
Visit the breathtakingly beautiful, biggest and oldest occupied castle in the world: Windsor Castle. The Queen often spends her weekends here so you might be lucky enough to be at the castle whilst she is there. The castle boasts 13 acres of land which means that there is plenty to see and do there such as watching the guard changing, admiring some of the most treasured artwork including pieces from Rembrandtm Rubens and Canaletto or exploring the most famous and most spectacular dolls house in the world.
Salisbury Cathedral
Visit what many consider the finest medieval cathedral in Britain. The 123 metre spire is still the tallest in England and marked a revolution in cathedral architecture when it was built 800 years ago. In the Chapter House, see one of only four existing original copies of the Magna Carta, the famous agreement made between King John and his barons in 1215.
