Il programma nel dettaglio
The legends and lore of Olde England come to life with this compelling full day tour that takes in the Bronze Age site of Stonehenge, the historic cathedral city of Salisbury and the Unesco World Heritage Site of Bath, which is renowned for its elegant Georgian architecture and ancient Roman baths.
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.
Enjoy a panoramic tour of Bath, passing the Gothic Abbey and the picturesque Pulteney Bridge. Visit the Roman Baths and witness the lighting ceremony when the torches around the Great Roman Bath are lit at dusk (not applicable in summer). You can also drink a glass of spa water straight from the historic Pump Rooms.
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.
