    • Greet your courteous guide on arrival at Southampton docks and climb aboard a luxury coach destined for Salisbury. Disembark in the beautiful town, home to one of Britain’s best examples of Gothic architecture, and embark on an explorative walking tour of the medieval center. Opt to enter the incredible cathedral at your own expense, and then return to your coach for the scenic journey to Stonehenge. 

    Feel your intrigue heighten as your guide regales you with mysteries and legends surrounding the enigmatic stone ring situated on the verdant Salisbury Plain. Ponder theories that have eluded scholars for centuries as you absorb the monument’s mystical atmosphere. 

    After a thorough exploration of the mysterious monument, travel onward to the historically rich town of Windsor, home to an official residence of Her Majesty the Queen. Revitalize with lunch in the quintessential town center (own expense) and then opt to visit the ancient castle at your own expense. 

    Depart from Windsor for the direct journey to London and arrive at your accommodation via swift and efficient transportation included in the tour price.

    Itinerary
    Stop At:  
    Salisbury Cathedral and Magna Carta
    This port transfer allows you to combine the drive from the Port of Southampton to London with visits to three world-class attractions! You will be met on arrival at the Southampton docks by your friendly guide and transferred by luxury coach to London via Salisbury, Stonehenge and Windsor. The first stop on our tour is the beautiful town of Salisbury, location of one of Britain’s best examples of Gothic architecture and home to the tallest Cathedral spire in the whole of England, the world’s oldest clock and one of the four original copies of the Magna Carta. After a guided tour through the medieval town, you will have free time to explore on your own and go into the cathedral if you wish. We plan to spend one hour in Salisbury, enough time for a photo stop and visit to the Cathedral, before hopping back in your coach and drive through the beautiful English countryside, past villages with historical churches and thatched-roof cottages. We recommend purchasing lunch for later in the day in Salisbury. Entry to Salisbury Cathedral is not included on this tour, and entry prices are on a recommended donation basis. Please note as Salisbury Cathedral is a working Cathedral it may be subject to last minute closures.

Was it a temple, a clock, a burial site? Decide for yourself as you walk around the stones. You'll have the chance to visit this world famous monument from 4-5,000 years ago and still have enough time for the gift shop or a quick coffee. You'll also have the chance to explore the new visitor centre and neolithic village. If you would like to enter Stonehenge, please select the 'Entry included' at the time of booking.

    Fabulous Tour

    We had a fantastic tour guide who was very knowledgeable and shared his knowledge with us. My only critique would be to perhaps off as a full day tour in order to have more time at the stops.

    We saw a lot in one day, all amazing sights to see. Our tour guide and driver were excellent! When we got to Stonehenge the driver noticed I wasn't wearing a jacket and asked if I'd like him to open the luggage area so I could get it. Thank goodness he did because the skies opened up while we were at the stones, and I would have been drenched. Our guide was so full of information and interesting history. I was very impressed!

    Not a pleasant day
    Louise_B
    , Jun 2022
    The tour was rushed the guide was rude, not a pleasant day. The guide should have been more mindful of the people who didn’t want to do the church in Salisbury. We wanted to go explore the village but he made us walk to the cathedral and then wait there until he explained everything to the other guests and then we started our walk to the village. He then stopped for another 5 min maybe longer taking pictures for another guest while we stood there and waited, by the time we got to the village we had maybe 10 min? Had he just sent us on our way to the village when we got off the bus instead of wasting our time waiting we could of had a nicer experience.

    Salisbury Cathedral was amazing and the opportunity just to see a piece of history in the Magna Carta a plus. Stonehenge also amazing and mysterious. Windsor Castle is fascinating but very crowded there during Queens Jubilee. The best part was the Guide Mike he didn’t just point things out along the way he talked about the history of the sites and how and why if the sites and UK. He made it the best tour of my 17 days in the UK.
